Day after day, your skin looks smoother and plumper and wrinkles seem to fade away—offsetting density loss and revealing a gorgeous glow.

How does Madagascan organic harungana extract counteract a loss of density?

A healing tree with powerful regenerating benefits, harungana aids reforestation by colonising barren soils in Madagascar and Africa. Local communities use its leaves in traditional medicine for its antiseptic and healing properties.

In cosmetics, the extract helps promote collagen synthesis for firmer, denser skin. Clarins Laboratories use certified fair trade and organic harungana leaves, grown and harvested in ways that support human rights and fair working conditions.

They are collected and dried by the residents of Joffreville, a village located in the north of Madagascar, with support from the local team from Jardins du Monde.

17 How do you know you have mature skin?

Luminosity, an even rosy complexion and a healthy glow all disappear with age.

From age 60 onwards, the skin loses these three aspects of its radiance. It dries out, lacking in hydration and suppleness and dark spots can begin to appear. To regain all its radiance, the skin needs to be better nourished on a daily basis with products rich in the nutrients required to maintain its health.

18 Why does mature skin lose luminosity?

Why does mature skin lose luminosity?

With age, the micronutrient system, which is essentially the skin's “anti-aging system”, is impacted in its functioning by the aging fibroblast. The result being that the complexion can become dull and dryness can be intensified.

In addition to this, as we age, the skin is increasingly susceptible to pigmentation issues and dullness. The lack of lipids in the skin can also contribute to the loss of luminosity and a healthy glow.

19 Which plant extracts work together to promote radiance?

Clarins Research combines organic horse chestnut flower extract and aescin, an active molecule extracted from the fruit, known for their effective action on the micronutrient system.

Thanks to this unique combination, the skin regains its radiance. Wakame extract helps to strengthen the skin's barrier function and keep it supple and hydrated. Leaf of life extract boosts the skin's capacity for self-hydration. Finally, desert date palm extract reduces dullness and contributes to the evenness and radiance of the complexion.
