Clarins Skin Illusion Natural Radiance Foundation SPF15 30ml in shade 112 Amber is the French house's signature radiant-finish foundation, designed to give skin a natural, healthy glow rather than a heavy made-up look. The deep tan-amber shade suits darker complexions with warm undertones, paired with hydrating actives, an SPF 15 filter and Clarins's anti-pollution complex.
About Clarins
Clarins is a French beauty house founded in Paris in 1954 by Jacques Courtin-Clarins, originally as a beauty institute focused on facial massage and plant-based skincare. The brand's make-up line, developed alongside its skincare, is built on a "skincare-meets-make-up" philosophy — formulas designed to wear well on real skin and contribute to its long-term condition. The Skin Illusion line is Clarins's hero radiant-finish foundation collection.
Key features
- Natural radiant finish: evens skin tone with a luminous, second-skin look — not matte, not high-gloss
- SPF 15 protection: a useful daily UV filter as part of a complete skincare routine
- Hydrating, skincare-led formula: includes squalane, glycerin and Mary's thistle (Silybum marianum) seed oil for comfort across long days
- Red Jania & Leaf of Life extracts: the brand's plant-based actives, included for radiance and skin-condition support
- Anti-pollution complex: helps protect the skin from environmental stressors
Who it's for
Shade 112 Amber is best suited to dark skin tones with warm undertones. The hydrating, radiant-finish formula is most flattering on normal-to-dry and dehydrated skin types — those with very oily skin may prefer Clarins's Everlasting line for more matte longevity. A useful daily foundation for natural-leaning make-up looks, mature skin and anyone who wants their foundation to feel like skincare.
How to use
- Cleanse, moisturise and let your skincare absorb fully.
- Shake the bottle, then dispense one to two pumps onto the back of the hand.
- Apply with a damp beauty sponge, foundation brush or fingertips, working from the centre of the face outwards.
- Build coverage in thin layers on areas of redness or uneven tone, rather than one heavy pass.
- Set with a light powder if you prefer extra mattifying through the day; for a fully dewy look, skip the powder.
