The new La Mousse Cleanser and Revitalizing UV Protector now completes Clarins’ Precious streamlined, potent and state-of-the-art skincare ritual
With the wealth of skincare available in the beauty market, it’s easy to get carried away—and honestly, lost—in the sea of options. Amid the myriad of skincare for various skin types, concerns and targeted benefits, many can get distracted from the vital steps of every beauty ritual: Cleansing, and sunscreen.
Having already streamlined—and power-packed—beauty rituals for the last 70 years, Clarins has unwaveringly created skincare that’s as efficacious as they are sensorial, with science-backed results.
Epitomising the French brand’s dedication to the finest formulas is their most exclusive range, Precious, launched last year. Conceptualised to offer the most complete, and luxurious, skincare regimen in the fewest steps possible, Clarins debuted the Precious La Crème, La Crème Yeux and La Lotion, followed by Le Sérum and La Crème Riche. A year later, the truest building blocks of good skincare have been added to the range: a cleanser, the Precious La Mousse Cleanser, and sunscreen, the Precious Revitalizing UV Protector.

The exceptional cleansing experience
Easily the most important step of skincare, cleansing should be three things—thorough, gentle and caring. The new Precious La Mousse Cleanser features a creamy texture that forms luscious foam that dissolves and sweeps away sebum, dirt and product build-up that could be clogging up pores with several key ingredients: naturally emulsifying organic soapwort extract, exfoliating nopal extract, organic raspberry water that helps to soften skin, hydrating organic leaf of life extract, and organic camellia oil to re-nutrify and reinforce the skin’s hydrolipidic film—which is the layer of natural oils that protect complexions.
Then there’s the pillar ingredient of the Precious range, the moonlight flower cryoextract, a product of years of work by the Clarins Research team, having meticulously cultivated and harnessed the exceptional powers of the moonlight flower to nourish skin and stimulate skin’s longevity. To be more precise, this cryoextract’s anti-ageing capabilities stem from its ability to reactivate skin’s natural defence mechanisms and a longevity protein called FOXO, which is naturally found in human skin cells. FOXO plays a key role of protecting complexions and neutralising the effects of time, by breaking the vicious cycle of oxy-inflammaging (also known as inflammatory oxidate ageing), combatting both internal and external aggressors like stress, fatigue, nutritional deficiencies, environmental pollution and UV rays, which are the main culprits of skin ageing.
Featuring Clarins’ delicate signature fragrance, this unctuous mousse-type cleanser comes reinforced by a brush to encourage a spa-inspired application gesture to ensure precision cleansing and a truly sensorial beauty step. The result is skin that feels clarified, comfortable and soft to the touch, ready for the ensuing steps of nourishing skincare—like the La Lotion, La Sérum, La Crème Yeux, and the La Crème or La Crème Riche depending on your skin type or climate.

The age-delaying UV shield
Armed with the most ideal levels of UV protection, Clarins’ Precious Revitalizing UV Protector is a multi-faceted sunscreen that shields complexions while strengthening it. On the surface, this Precious sunscreen is lightweight and fresh-feeling, without leaving any white cast or sticky residue on skin, but gives the skin a soft rosy glow thanks to natural origin interferential mother-of-pearl in the formula. And this protects complexions with SPF 50 PA++++ comprising six powerful chemical sun filters to protect against UVA and UVB, which are responsible for skin burning and skin ageing respectively, and also blocks out blue light with anti-pollution protections in place.
Beyond the surface, this silky, ultra-invisible emulsion is infused with organic mango leaf extract and Clarins’ Precious skin age-delaying technology for thorough protection against oxidative stress. Skin ageing is mostly caused by one, the tolls of time and lifestyle, and two, external aggressors like UV rays and pollution, which are responsible for two major dysfunctions in cells, leading to the accelerated ageing of the skin. This includes oxidative stress, which triggers the overproduction of free radicals and in turn, oxidative damage within cells; and inflammation, which can cause an overproduction of enzymes that can break down components in the skin’s matrix. This, again, is where Clarins’ Precious moonlight flower cryoextract comes into play, zooming in on replenishing and fortifying our skin’s FOXO longevity protein to boost antioxidant defence mechanisms to combat the effects of oxidative stress, and to help inhibit a pro-inflammatory protein called NFk-B.

Additionally, this sunscreen has also been formulated with organic leaf of life extract to help stimulate natural hydration mechanisms present in various layers of the skin to boost hyaluronic acid production, as well as an anti-pollution complex that provides triple protection against the harmful effects of both indoor and outdoor pollution.
So not only does this sunscreen block out further harmful damage to skin, it repairs and regenerates skin from within, preventing and relieving skin from the appearance of dark spots through effective UV protection while restoring a lit-from-within radiance. And because it’s so lightweight, the Precious Revitalizing UV Protector sits effortlessly under make-up, so you don’t need to worry about skin pilling or patchiness.
Streamlined, powerful, and state-of-the-art, Clarins’ essential Precious skincare ritual is now complete.
