Combining a radiant, seamless finish with skin-loving benefits that last, Clarins' new Double Serum foundation is the hardworking hybrid to add to your routine.

When it comes to the best foundations, we expect far more than just good coverage. The top formulas must also feel comfortable, wear well throughout the day and as an added bonus, feature nourishing ingredients that will treat our skin. Clarins' Double Serum foundation delivers on all counts, offering luminous, medium-to-full coverage that is supercharged with skincare tech. As the name suggests, this new launch is inspired by the brand's iconic Double Serum, which itself is beloved for its radiance-boosting and anti-ageing effects.

Inside Clarins' new Double Serum-inspired foundation

Joining the ranks of the original face and eye serum, Clarins Double Serum foundation combines skincare with makeup, promising youthful, dewy radiance, along with a seamless, satin finish.

As a serum foundation, it's described as having a customisable, weightless feel. It delivers medium-to-full coverage that lasts for up to 12 hours of wear, but depite it's serum elements, it's non-oily. It's also available in 37 shades and is the ideal formula for those who prefer hybrid beauty buys and more natural-looking makeup. Especially as the formula actually works to boost the glow of your bare skin and target fine lines and wrinkles.

Aside from the fact that we love a luminous foundation, the formula is what's truly exciting about this launch. As mentioned, its [COLOUR + HYDRIC] system was inspired by the brand's best-selling Double Serum, and combines 14 active ingredients to revitalise the skin, targeting fine lines and wrinkles to leave a more youthful complexion.

This launch also comes hand in hand with a new foundation brush, which is just as innovative as the formula itself, with its Gua Sha-inspired shape that hugs the contours of your face as you apply it, delivering a lifting effect.

Now, if you've always wanted to quite literally double up on your Double Serum, this new dewy foundation is, of course, compatible with both the face and eye serum. It doesn't replace the need for either serums, but rather further builds on their efficacy and lends it to your makeup routine.
