Clarins Beauty Flash Balm
CLARINS Beauty Flash Balm is the ultimate pick-me-up for tired, stressed skin.
CLARINS Beauty Flash Balm helps eliminate signs of fatigue in a flash! Instantly moisturizes, brightens and tightens facial contours so skin looks rested and relaxed. Olive and Witch Hazel extracts help smooth the skin’s surface, diffusing the look of lines and wrinkles. Soothing Bisabolol helps restore skin’s youthful glow. Preps skin for perfect make-up application and hours of luminous wear.
How to apply
Apply morning or evening, after thorough cleansing and toning, apply (without massaging) a very thin layer over the face, neck and eye area. Apply make-up immediately, if desired. Beauty Flash Balm can also be used as a facial mask 2 or 3 times a week.

Tips: I would recommend using the beauty flash balm on an evening as it does leave a slight residue afterwards and I feel my makeup sits better the morning after
I love this product, its the investment item, you need to always have, I do a lot of events and late night deadlines with my work and I use this to freshen up, also when I travel. Its the refresher, the soother and a girl's best friend. No amount of makeup can cover a tired run down look, this does help. I used to use all Clarins products when I worked for a French company and travelled a lot and bought it duty free, these days I don't spend as much on cosmetics but I do value this product as a booster for any of the other products I am using.
Love this stuff. i got it in a sample pack i purchased from farmers and it sits so well underneath my elizabeth arden i was always so conscious of my pores but now i have no worries :)
I have been using this for years!! My skin tightens and glows instantly. Sadly, it's been beyond my budget capacity lately but well worth what you pay for it. It's an instant pick me up for dull tired skin.and but might have to suck it up, restock and eat toasties this week! and ojust looking at ita
This is my all time favourite product! I won some in a competition several years ago and have been eking it out and using it when I need to give my skin a lift. It is soooo moisturising and soothing. My skin feels a million dollars. Whenever I wear it at least one person comments on how good my skin is looking. I use it as a moisturiser either alone or under foundation or powder. I cannot say enough good things about this product.
Tips: Get some!
This works really well as a primer, I typically use on days where my skin looks particularly dull and tired.
Pop a little on my skin, focusing in the T-Zone, wait for it to sink in and then proceed with my foundation. Foundation applies so smoothly and glides over my pores instead of accentuating them. My base always lasts longer and looks better after using Beauty Flash Balm, give it a try!
Tips: Apply foundation straight after application for a smooth, seamless finish
After a consultation with the Clarins counter manager at Farmers, she recommended I try using this product as a primer to help lift my skin and boost the hydration, as the foundation I was using at the time had really dehydrated my skin. I'm so glad she indorsed this product to me! Prior to this, I had never used a primer before, and in all honesty I didn’t even know the purpose of a primer! I was just told to Cleanse, Tone and Moisturise. This has been a great addition to my morning beauty ritual. I love that it is all natural and smells fantastic. It went on nice and smooth, however was a tad sticky, so I worked out if I left it to set for a wee while before putting on my foundation I was sorted. The container lasted for about 6 months as you only need a very small amount for full coverage. It was a great base for makeup during the day however I never used this at night. After about 2 months my skin had fully recovered from the dehydration and subsequent breakouts and I owe it all to Clairns.
Tips: Allow enough time for the primer to set before putting on any liquid foundation.
I have been wanting to try a few different Clarins products for a while. The bottles always look so classy and I had heard really good things about their skin line being well formulated. When I finally caught on to a GWP I knew I had to go for it! In the Farmers GWP there were a few goodies - this "Beauty Flash Balm" was one of them. I had wanted to try this for a while as it has a bit of a cult following so I was really excited to try this (I would have purchased this had it not been in the GWP).
Once again the packaging is extremely classy and simple. A white squeezy tube with red writing on it. The lid fits securely and once undone reveals just a normal wee whole for squeezing the product through.
I was a bit surprised when I initially squeezed some of this out that the cream/balm is kind of tinted a pale orange. No wonder they say it brightens as that pale shade would be a great colour corrector. This does have a bit of a scent. Quite natural and inoffensive though so I didn't find it a big problem. When you spread this on your skin it feels very smooth and a wee bit silicone like, but not so much that your skin feels terrible. I have been using this as a base for my makeup and I do feel like it creates a really nice base, I'm not sure if it really makes it last longer but I really do like it. I don't think this really does any tightening or reduction of wrinkles... but I am reasonably young so can't really test it on that claim. They say you can also use this as a mask but for such an expensive product I don't think I'll be doing that any time soon.
For me I have been really happy to try this. But I don't find it a holy grail product so it isn't going on any repurchase lists just yet. I think my overall advice is to see if you can get a sample or this with a GWP because although it is really nice I personally don't find it a miracle worker.

WOW this is my holy grail product! cannot live without it and believe EVERYONE needs to have one. It has so many multi purposes!! 1. As a make up primer 2. As a "pick me up" it brightens and tightens skin and wakes you up making you feel fresh and alive 3. As a mask after exfoliating as it calms skin 4. While flying in aeroplanes!! your skin gets so dehydrated and dry that it needs moisture and this is the perfect product
Tips: GET IT! you need it in your life!
To be honest I used to sneak this from my mums makeup when she wasn't looking because I loved it soo much but couldn't afford it :p it's an amazing product, I feel that it completely lifts my face before foundation! I used way less foundation when I had this on, just made my skin heavenly! Even better now I can afford my own :) hahaha
