Aquatic inspiration from Clarins Clarins has launched a water-themed make-up collection for summer 2015. Limited edition items – from iridescent eyeshadows to aquatic green mascara and nourishing wet-look lip balms – appear in the Aquatic Treasures line which uses “tones of rosy gold, pearlescent beige and lagoon green with iridescent glints” for a glowing effect.
Continuing the aquatic theme, Clarins has also just created a signature therapy for its spa at the Molitor – the famous, Parisian lido that reopened last year. Its Beyond the Water face and body treatment incorporates a subtle play of lights, music and touch which have been “choreographed like a ballet, with unique aquatic sensations”.
