Turmeric

One of the super-power spices.

Well-known for its golden yellow powder that adds vibrant colour to curry dishes around the world, turmeric is a plant native to Southeast Asia.

Leaf of life

A fascinating example of botanical engineering.

Observing Nature and taking inspiration from it is one of the secrets of Clarins Research. A Madagascan plant has captured the attention of Clarins Laboratories: the leaf of life.
Nicknamed "leaf of life" by Madagascans, the plant is as essential to life as water is for the skin’s health. By helping the skin to renew its various tissues, the organic leaf of life extract promotes perfect hydration.

Alpine rose

The best ingredient to detoxify the skin.

Alpine rose is a bushy shrub found in areas located between 1600 and 2400m of altitude. A strong standing plant, it withstands the alpine winter with a thick blanket of snow protecting it from the extreme cold.
Alpine rose has a unique ability to protect the skin from oxidative stress, while boosting lysosome activity to detoxify the skin.

Shea

The tree with powerful nourishing benefits

The shea tree is a sacred tree, which should never be cut down or damaged. Traditionally, shea butter and shea oil, which are rich in fatty acids, help nourish and protect the skin.

Quince leaf

An unparalleled trainer

A  small tree native to the Caucasus, quince has been cultivated all over the Mediterranean region. Quince leaves are used in the Steppe regions to treat coughs, cardiovascular diseases and skin conditions.

In cosmetics, quince extract helps tighten the skin’s structure to restore its tone and elasticity. Quince leaf extract helps stimulate fat elimination and regulates the overproduction of fibres that cause the adipose tissue to become rigid.

Centella asiatica

At the heart of our bio-inspiration

Commonly known as “tiger grass”, as these large felines roll themselves in its leaves to treat their wounds, this age-old plant is traditionally used in Asia for its healing and soothing properties.
Clarins discovered that these extraordinary repairing properties were particularly useful for targeting stretch marks.

Sea lily

Sea lily can be found along the Atlantic coastline from Brittany to Portugal as well as in the Mediterranean, including in Corsica and Crete. With its ironclad strength, its seeds can brave the swells all while keeping their germinating power intact. Its name “pankration” comes from the Greek “pan”, which means “all” and “kratos”, “force”, and refers to the exceptional resistance of its delicate flower in its arid environment of sand, sun, salt and wind. The sea lilies chosen by the Clarins Laboratories come from controlled cultivation. In cosmetics, organic sea lily slows down the transport of melanin and promotes the reduction of pigmentation. Organic sea lily extract also contributes to the skin’s overall hydration.

Hazelnut oil

The hazel is a small tree that grows in woods and hedgerows, and is very common in European forests. The fluid fine oil extracted from hazelnuts is edible and used in cooking for its delicate flavour. It is traditionally used for its high fatty acid content, which helps to nourish the skin and protect it against dehydration.

Cassia flower

Now largely naturalised everywhere in the world, cassia is a bushy shrub. Its  yellow pom-pom flowers give off a heavy, mimosa scent and produce an essential oil that are sought after in the fine fragrance industry. In cosmetics, the wax extracted from cassia flowers is widely esteemed for its protective, filmogenic and smoothing properties.
