Showcase: Clarins Aquatic Collection

By Hollysbeautybox @hollysbeautybox
The new Clarins Aquatic collection has just been dropped and I am obsessed with how pretty it all looks.  I was lucky enough to be sent a few products to try out and thought I would share my thoughts on them all.
The first product, and probably the product I was most excited to try was the Aquatic Treasures Summer Bronzing Compact.  It looks so pretty and almost orinetal.  It looks in the picture like I have caught the lighting at a funny angle but actually, that's how it actually looks - it's full of different shades that are ideal for every skintone.  It's a really big compact so probably not ideal for your handbag but it's literally SO gorgeous and gives a gorgeous subtle amount of color to your skin.
Moving on to the Instant Light Radiance Boosting Complexion Base. This is a bit like a tinted primer.  The product is quite glowy and leaves your skin looking dewy so it's best not to apply it to places where you're prone to oily patches. I'd wear this on it's own on a summery day to add a bit of sheen to my skin without looking overdone.
The final products are these Iridescent Eyeshadows in the shades 01 Aquatic Rose which is a pink toned champagne color and is ideal to be used across the entire lid and in the brow arch and 03 Aquatic Grey which is actually really blue toned in the pan but once blended is a really pretty subtle gray. The colours aren't hugely pigmented but these are nicely subtle for summer time when you don't want a huge amount of coverage but just want something over your lids.
This collections is really gorgeous and I'm definitely looking forward to trying more of it.
Have you tried it yet? what do you think of it?
