Innovation
What is Clarins' breakthrough?
Clarins Research has broadened its anti-ageing investigations and for the first time is focusing on what causes loss of firmness and the appearance of wrinkles at the level of the dermis and the epidermis.
WHAT ARE THE KEYS TO FIRM SKIN? >
Extra-Firming Day Cream
At the level of the dermis - the skin's "support mattress" - Extra-Firming Day Cream not only works on all the fibres and cells that helps firm the skin but also on the connections that anchor these fibres to the skin cells.
These connections enable the skin to stretch and compress and to resist the effects of time without fracturing.

Extra-Firming Night Cream
At the level of the epidermis (the top layer of the skin) Extra-Firming Night Cream promotes the protection of the skin's stem cells - cells which ensure the production of new skin cells.
The potential of the epidermis to renew itself, which is key to ensure youthful skin is maintained.

The first Extra-Firming product:
effective both night and day
Rich in 12 active ingredients, the first Extra-Firming product was a night cream with revitalising benefits, which was an immediate success. The rich and creamy texture was so unlike the oily creams common at that time. These properties soon had fans using it as a day cream too.
Immediate lifting effect and
light-activated regeneration
The Extra-Firming cream was separated into two products: in addition to the night cream, a day cream was created with smoothing active ingredients, which helped give an instant younger-looking appearance.
Protection of the skin’s nerve endings
New Clarins Research breakthrough: the Extra-Firming range was extended to include products that protect the skin's nerve endings and whose connections with the skin cells and epidermis control the skin's regeneration. An approach based on physiological connections that Clarins still continues to research today.
Spotlight on
firmness connections
Extra-Firming products build on the innovations of previous generations and have been enhanced thanks to a major breakthrough: the existence of protein links which strengthen the fibres and cells in order to maintain the skin's capacity to flight the effects of time. Perfect for those who at the age of 40 are seeking to control loss of skin firmness and signs of ageing. The new Extra-Firming product range promises increased firmness.

FAQ
Questions and Answers
Lionel de Benetti
Head of Clarins Laboratories
What role does organic green banana extract play?
This is a new active ingredient, which has been specially developed for Clarins. It plays a key role in maintaining the firmness of the skin and strengthening the skin's structure. It helps:
- stimulate the synthesis of collagen I - the most abundant collagen in the dermis
- improve the quality of collagen fibres
- anchor the connections between the fibres and skin cells
Is this a new way of achieving firmness?
Until now anti-ageing products have largely focused on collagen fibres and to a lesser extent on elastin fibres.
Now Clarins' Research has made a breakthrough which will revolutionise anti-ageing products. Because skin has a mobile structure in which all the elements must work together to ensure its resistance, the new Clarins Extra-Firming products not only target collagen fibres, elastin fibres and fibroblasts (dermis cells) but also the connections that strengthen these fibres and cells.
What are ‘firmness connections’?
The skin on the face is constantly being solicited by the face's expressions. To prevent the skin from marking, the dermis relies on a stretchable and compressible network capable of following the movements of the face without slackening or fracturing.
Hence the importance of the connections which anchor these fibres and cells and give the skin's structure its mobility and long term firmness.
