Clarins Double Serum Foundation

Clarins Double Serum Foundation M5C 30ml is a next-generation hybrid base that brings together make-up coverage and comforting skincare in one step. The fluid, serum-like texture feels lightweight on the skin while offering customisable medium-to-full coverage with a luminous satin finish. Designed for all skin types, it helps to promote a smoother, more even-looking complexion and encourages a radiant appearance throughout the day. The formula is enriched with plant extracts and active molecules, including turmeric, hyaluronic acid and Matrixyl 3000, to support hydration and the look of firmness and elasticity over time.

This foundation fits easily into a daily routine when you want coverage that still looks like skin. For best results, apply after your usual serum and moisturiser, or pair with Clarins Double Serum for an added skincare boost. The dual-chamber bottle dispenses the colour and hydrating phases together, so they blend seamlessly as you apply. Skin is left looking refined and more luminous, with a breathable, comfortable feel that lasts for hours.

How to use
How to Use:
Apply your usual skincare, such as Double Serum and moisturiser, to clean, dry skin. Turn the dial on the Double Serum Foundation bottle to select your preferred coverage level, then pump to dispense the formula onto the back of your hand. Blend the two phases together with your fingertips, a brush or a sponge, then apply from the centre of the face outwards, smoothing over the forehead, cheeks, nose and chin. Build thin layers where more coverage is desired.

Frequency:
Use as needed, whenever you’d like medium-to-full coverage and a luminous satin finish.

Application Technique:
Work in small amounts, blending quickly so the fluid texture melts into the skin. Use upward strokes with a brush for a lifted effect, or press the foundation in with palms or a sponge to help it fuse with the complexion.

Best Practices:
Apply to well-moisturised skin and allow skincare to absorb before foundation. Shake or prime the pump as directed on the packaging before first use. Take time to blend along the jawline and hairline for a seamless result.

Safety Tips:
For external use only. Avoid direct contact with the eyes. If irritation occurs, discontinue use and seek advice if needed. Keep out of reach of children and follow any additional instructions on the packaging.

How to Use:
Apply your usual serum and moisturiser, then ensure skin is clean and well hydrated. Turn the dial on the Double Serum Foundation bottle to select your preferred coverage level and press the pump to dispense the formula onto the back of your hand. Mix the two phases together, then apply to the face using fingers, a brush or a sponge, starting from the centre and blending outwards. Build in light layers where more coverage is desired.

Frequency:
Use as needed, according to the product instructions and your make-up routine.

Application Technique:
Work in small amounts, blending quickly so the fluid texture spreads evenly. Focus on areas that need more evening, such as around the nose, cheeks and chin, and blend down the neck for a seamless finish.

Best Practices:
Apply to well-prepped skin for a smoother result and allow skincare to absorb before foundation. Use thin layers rather than one heavy application and set with powder if you prefer extra longevity.

Safety Tips:
Use externally only. Avoid direct contact with the eyes and discontinue use if irritation occurs. Keep out of reach of children and follow any additional guidance on the packaging.
