Continuous and responsible innovation

Innovative formulation for Clarins skincare | CLARINS® SG

Do more, do it better and enjoy doing it...

Since our creation, this principle has guided us towards an idea of beauty that is both demanding and responsible. We systematically prioritise plant-based raw materials, while increasingly integrating more organic, local and fair trade ingredients into our products.

Year after year, we develop new products and improve our existing formulas using the latest innovations. This “open” research allows us to work towards more effective, natural and environmentally friendly treatments.

The Clarins Green Score: evaluating to improve progress

Before being incorporated into our products, all our raw materials are reviewed using
the Clarins Green Score.

This measurement tool allows us to accurately assess the environmental, social and health impact of our ingredients across a range of criteria. Each formula is then given an overall score, by adding up the scores of the substances it contains.

The goal?
To select the best mix of ingredients to develop safe and effective products that are also respectful of people and nature.

Caring beauty that doesn’t cause animal suffering

Clarins stops animal testing for animal protection | CLARINS® SG

When you love nature, protecting animals is a necessity.

Clarins stopped all animal testing many years ago in favour of alternative state-of-the-art methods. This allows us to guarantee high-quality products that are designed and manufactured with respect for animal welfare.

However, some countries require animal testing, which they carry out themselves to assess the safety of cosmetic products. We are obliged to comply with these regulations, but we are working closely with the relevant authorities to put an end to such practices.
