Several weeks
ago my face became really really dry and the skin around my
cheeks was especially dry and became really scaly and itchy (apologies if that
grosses you out slightly). I had been on the beach and under the sun over the
weekend and didn't moisturize enough afterwards...which is terrible of me! I
tried everything to re-hydrate my skin which included using the Laneige
Sleeping mask, Origins Drink Up Intensive mask, hyaluronic sheet masks,
Embryolisse Lait Creme Concentre every night...anything and everything I
thought was intensely hydrating! Sadly, nothing was really working, at least
not at the pace I wanted it to work. During the day, I would wear a hydrating
BB cream for work but my skin got so bad that people at work started asking me
what was up with my skin because the scaly dry skin was quite noticeable
underneath the BB cream. So I started looking through my stash of samples and
came across a tiny vial of Clarins Lotus Face Treatment Oil and I thought why
the hell not and used up the whole vial to drench my skin...and BOOM. My skin
was saved overnight! The extremely dry and scaly parts of my skin felt
smoother, plumper and re-hydrated after using the oil. I was so impressed, I
bought a full-size bottle the very next day since my skin was definitely still
in need of this miracle worker.
