Tried and tested

While rightly praised for their skincare, Clarins seems to be an overlooked brand when it comes to makeup. But there are some gems to found here — especially when it comes to lipstick.

Clarins has reinvented its Joli Rouge lipsticks (€22), and while the latest trend may have been for matte, opaque and bold shades, sometimes you just need a good everyday lipstick. And that’s where this collection comes in.

The formulation contains mango oil which Clarins promises will provide six hours of continuous moisture — and they are indeed very comfortable to wear.
