Can I use moisturizer, foundation and eye concealer over the Instant Smooth? Does it matter if it's oil based or water based makeup I use to apply over ? How many hours does the smoothing effects last ? Can I use this daily ? Thank you
- Asked by Lynn
- Official Answer By ClarinsThank you for your question about the Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch. As a primer, this would go on after your moisturizer, but before your foundation and concealer in the areas of concern.

I Can't Live Without This Stuff
I decided a couple years ago that I was done with foundation. I was just sick of trying to find the right shade and it always felt heavy on my face. Plus, I felt like they were actually making me look older instead of covering up the (LITTLE) lines that were creeping in. SO I decided to give this In...

works-only in reverse!
I used this stuff as directed as far as I can tell. It made my poors show up worse than with nothing, its bizarre.

Lovely Smooth-Perfecting Primer!

I like this product. I apply it lightly before my foundation to the lines between my eyes. I don't use too much or it has a pilling effect! Then foundation, then a setting powder. Sometimes I just use it during the day, if I am not applying make-up.

This little jar is filled with magic!

I got this to use up some expiring points. Oh my goodness, this little jar is absolutely golden! Best primer I have ever used--and believe me, I have tried several. For the record, I am almost 68 with some large pores on my chin and around my nose. Add those large pores to my "elevens" and the normal smile lines and sometimes I feel like a patchwork quilt. This little beauty blurred all of those issues so beautifully. I applied after my toner, serum, moisturizer routine (waiting in-between for a minute or two), waited a bit, then applied my makeup. Used a setting spray and everything stayed all day--even my elevens looked pretty good! helps to prevent makeup from settling into lines. I do not think I will ever go without this gem. BTW, a little goes a long way. Thank you Clarins for making a stellar product.
Greasy! Tired of cosmetics saying Matt or smoothing
They continue to lie to us anything with dimethicone or simethicone is not and then hydrogenated vegetable oil these are the ingredients and this is supposed to be instant smooth perfecting I don't think so don't bother even buying this product. I'm glad I was able to try it as a sample before I bought it
