Without a doubt, Clarins Beauty Flash Balm is one of the most coveted and talked about beauty products in the beauty world. The product that is specially formulated to cover and lift dull, tired skin is a cult classic from the brand. Living up to its claims and hype, Clarins beauty flash balm is one such beauty product that has clearly stood the test of time with an ever growing fan following.

As a passionate skincare junkie, I have toyed with multiple face creams. I have spent years alternating between an intense moisturizer, a brightening treatment, and a retinol cream. But I’d never been able to treat my myriad skin concerns with just one product.

When it comes to maintaining a daily skincare routine, I think I’m doing pretty well by using sunscreen, taking off my makeup every night, then washing and moisturizing but given the overall skincare diligence, I feel I could do much, much better with regular exfoliation and salon facials.

I used to be a spa maniac before, but somewhere between managing kids and meeting deadlines, I fell off the wagon. And despite maintaining a diligent skincare routine, my skin looked dull with ugly blackheads, blemishes and occasional pimples mocking back at me.

So last year, I added getting regular facials to my skincare goals and made it a priority to take time out of my busy schedule in order to pamper my skin. And luckily, I got a chance to try an Insta skin purify beauty service from Kaya Skin Clinic. Continue reading
