About Clarins
Clarins is the family-owned French skincare and beauty house founded in 1954 by Jacques Courtin-Clarins in Paris. Best known for its plant-based, results-oriented skincare and signature double-serum, Clarins Make-Up extends the same skincare-led approach into colour cosmetics, with the Lip Perfector range among its long-running, award-winning gloss families.
Key benefits
- Sheer, lightweight gloss with a 3D shine finish.
- 02 Apricot Shimmer is a soft apricot tint with a fine pearl finish — universally flattering and easy to wear.
- Visibly plumps and smooths the lips on application.
- Comfortable, non-sticky texture that wears like a balm.
- Soft, delicate vanilla scent.
Key ingredients
- Shea butter (Butyrospermum parkii): rich, nourishing plant butter that softens and conditions the lips.
- Vitamin F (essential fatty acids): supports lip comfort and a softer, smoother texture.
- Pearlescent micas: deliver the gloss's signature 3D shine finish.
Who it's for
Anyone who wants a soft, lightly-tinted everyday gloss with skincare-led ingredients — particularly suited to those who find heavier lipsticks drying. Apricot Shimmer flatters most skin tones and works as a standalone lip or layered over a matte lipstick for shine.
How to use
- Apply directly to the lips with the doe-foot wand — start in the centre and work outwards.
- Layer over a matte lipstick or lipliner for added shine, or wear alone for a soft, natural finish.
- Re-apply through the day as desired — gloss formulas typically need a top-up after meals.
- Pair with a clear lipliner along the cupid's bow to enhance the plumping effect.
