CLARINS Blue Orchid Hydrating Face Treatment Oil for Dry Skin 30ml 植物金萃香薰護理系列 蘭花護理油

Efficacy:

• Deep Hydration and Nourishment: The formula uses 100% pure plant extracts, free from preservatives, featuring Blue Orchid, Patchouli, Rosewood essential oils, and Hazelnut Oil. Designed for dehydrated skin, it deeply replenishes moisture, restoring a plump and hydrated complexion while reducing tightness and flakiness caused by dryness.
• Restoring Radiance and Vitality: Blue Orchid and Patchouli essential oils promote skin vitality and glow, significantly improving dullness and tired skin, resulting in a natural radiance and healthy, luminous complexion.
• Smoothing Fine Lines: Hazelnut Oil, rich in Omega 9 and Vitamin E, helps lock in moisture, strengthens the skin barrier, and reduces fine lines and dehydration lines, leaving the skin soft, smooth, and with a satin-like texture.
• Soothing and Balancing: Combining Aromaphytocare (aromatherapy and phytotherapy), the natural fragrance of essential oils soothes the mind and body, balancing dehydrated skin. It is particularly suitable for tight skin caused by climate changes (e.g., dry seasons or air-conditioned environments) or post-cleansing.
• Fast Absorption: The lightweight oil texture penetrates quickly without leaving a greasy residue or staining clothing, ideal for dry and dehydrated skin (including dry areas of combination skin).
• Eco-Friendly Design: Made with 100% natural ingredients, the glass bottle contains recycled materials, the packaging is 100% recyclable, and the outer box uses cardboard from sustainably managed forests, reflecting Clarins’ commitment to the environment.

Usage:

• Evening Application: Recommended for evening use. After thoroughly cleansing the face and applying toner (such as Clarins Hydrating Toning Lotion), while the skin is still slightly damp, dispense 3-5 drops of Blue Orchid Hydrating Face Treatment Oil into your palms, warm it by rubbing to near body temperature for better absorption.
• Gentle Application: Gently press from the center of the face outward, applying to the face and neck, avoiding the eye area. Use the natural weight of your hands for even distribution, avoiding forceful tugging on the skin.
• Clarins Draining Pressure Method: Use Clarins’ exclusive Draining Pressure Method, pressing lightly 3 times each on the cheeks and forehead, and 5 times each on the neck and décolletage, to promote blood circulation, enhance radiance, and improve absorption.
• Removing Excess Oil: After application, if any oil remains, gently blot with a soft tissue to ensure a refreshed, non-sticky finish.
• Pairing with Skincare: Can be used alone or mixed with a night cream (blend 1-2 drops with cream in your palms) to enhance hydration. Recommended order: cleanser, toner, serum, Blue Orchid Face Treatment Oil, moisturizer.

Additional Recommendations:

• Usage Frequency: Recommended for nightly use, especially for dry, dehydrated, or tight skin caused by environmental factors (e.g., air-conditioned rooms, winter, or climate changes). Can also be used as an emergency repair product for extremely dry or sensitive skin.
• Targeted Application: Focus on dry areas (such as cheeks); for combination skin, avoid the T-zone (e.g., forehead, chin) to prevent over-moisturization.

Precautions:

• If sensitive to the fragrance of Patchouli or other essential oils, try a sample first, as some users report a strong scent (described as “pine” or “herbal”).
• Store in a cool, dark place to prevent oxidation, use within 6 months of opening, and regularly check for off odors (signs of rancidity).
• Non-comedogenic formula, but oily or acne-prone skin should patch test to avoid clogged pores.

User Feedback: Users praise its rapid hydration effects, noting improved radiance, softness, and reduced dryness and redness after a few days, especially in winter or dry environments. Long-term use (weeks to months) visibly reduces fine lines and enlarged pores. The product is economical, with 30ml lasting several months.

Pairing Suggestions: Pair with other Clarins hydrating products (such as Hydra-Essentiel Cream or Plant Gold Nutri-Revitalizing Oil-Emulsion) to further lock in moisture and enhance radiance.
