Product Review: Clarins Silky Smooth Body Cream

What is great about this product…

I really love the texture of this body lotion, it feels thick but when applying it to my skin it felt really smooth and silky. (as the product name suggests) After applying my skin felt very soft and the softness and hydration seemed to last throughout the day. The smell of the Clarins Eau Tranquility Silky-Smooth Body Cream is really quite strong, but I found it surprisingly pleasant. I don’t think I would wear this during the daytime on a regular basis, because I found that the smell lingered all day, and sort of clashed with my perfume. I do like that the smell lingers for such a long time because that is not always the case with scented body lotions. It was a real treat to apply at night, especially when I used it prior to my meditation sessions. The Clarins Eau Tranquility Body Cream uses a combination of essential oils and plant extracts to provide the dual benefits of aromatherapy and phytotherapy*. (*the use of plants or plant extracts for medicinal purposes) The benefits of aromatherapy definitely came through, as when I used this product at night (and before meditating) I felt quite calm and relaxed.

What is not so great about this product…

I don’t really like the packaging of this product, and I’m not sure if it’s because I received a sample tube or what, but it just didn’t look that appealing to me. I much prefer the tub version, as pictured in this post.

My Rating: 7/10

The Clarins Eau Tranquility Silky-Smooth Body Cream retails for $62.00 AUD and is available for purchase online from Australian online beauty store Active Skin.
