Peachy Deegan Found the Perfect Thing to Perk Up Your Winter from Clarins: One-Step Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser With Orange Extracts Renews Radiance For All Skin Types


We all have the winter blahs...it is freezing cold, the holidays are over, the work is backed up, and we need something cheerful.  Clarins to the rescue!  We love love love the One-Step Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser.


Top 10 Reasons why Peachy Deegan thinks this will put some cheer into your winter:

The color is perky!
You wake up dreaming about the smell and the texture perking you up too
The container is sleek and is smooth in your hand, and easy to open before your morning coffee.
It has the texture of the summer sand-the white sand of tropical beaches far from New York
It smells like what grows on the backyard trees of Florida residents
It is as close as you are going to get to that backyard when you step into your Manhattan shower
It effectively cleans everything away from Mr. Sandman to dead skin cells
It is not too rough and is typical of the gentleness of Clarins products
You leave the shower feeling refreshed and in a great mood to start the day
With Orange Extracts it renews radiance for all skin types



We recommend using this a few times a week, not every day.  When you leave the shower, the best thing to do is apply Clarins Multi-Active Jour after this lovely product!  Better than just clean skin, achieve 'new' skin! It removes make-up, gently cleanses, exfoliates and removes deep-set impurities in one simple step all while respecting the skin's hydrolipidic film.  4.4oz for $35.  Peachy Deegan loves visiting the Clarins counter at Saks where Ofelia Lieberman does a fabulous job!



Place a small amount of product onto the fingertips of one hand. Gently massage onto damp skin to work into a lather and proceed to exfoliate all parts of the face avoiding the eye contour area. Rinse well with warm water.



  • Gentle cleansing agents: remove make-up and thoroughly cleanse.
  • Moringa seed extract: anti-pollution benefits, purifies the skin to restore its natural radiance.
  • Orange extract: refreshes, tones, revives.
  • Silica microbeads and cellulose microspheres: exfoliate and renew.
