It hydrates, tones and strengthens skin – as well as fending off ageing and pollution – with a unique and innovative combination of natural ingredients and scientific complexes.

The Most Important Thing About This Product Is…
Using the latest scientific discoveries combined with their love of botanical extracts and respect for the environment, the Clarins Men Energising Gel epitomises Clarins’ place in the skincare field. Men’s skin is thicker than women’s, which means cells renew themselves faster so therefore it needs more energy to optimally function, and that’s exactly what this face cream provides. It invigorates the skin as well as fights off aggressors, including pollution, temperatures, free radicals, stress and fatigue, which can all have a dulling and ageing effect on skin as they cause cell function to slow down. The lightweight moisturiser instantly hydrates and refreshes the skin, it cools the skin by -2°C and doesn’t feel at all heavy or sticky. It works like a battery to energise skin and give it a boost of radiance and hydration while strengthening and supporting the healthy function of skin. It also soothes and moisturises the skin, making it perfect to use to calm razor burn.

Fatigue, stress and pollution can leave men’s skin looking dull, tired and a bit lacklustre. The Clarins Men Energising Gel is ideal for men aged 25 – 45 who have busy and active lifestyles and are starting to notice the effects of this on their skin, and want to give it a boosting shot of energy. It’s also perfect if he hates heavy and thick textures, as this one is extremely lightweight, non-greasy and refreshing.
Hero Ingredients:
For such a lightweight gel, the formula sure packs an impressive punch! At the heart of the moisturiser lies Clarins’ innovative and new generation G-Red Complex, which is centred around organic red ginseng extract. This boosts the skin’s energy and helps to preserve the efficient functioning of skin cells. It’s matured for six years to increase the richness of the active molecules. This is met with energising organic bison grass, as well as gymnema extra, which encourages the production of the molecule responsible for healthy cell functions. These work together to stimulate the skin as well as soothe.
It also contains Clarins’ Anti-Pollution Complex, which has been evolved eight times to ensure it’s at its absolute best and uses the best and latest scientific and environmental changes and discoveries. This blend uses a trio of natural ingredients – furcellaria, organic nipplewort and organic white horehound – to physically protect the skin against environmental aggressors, pollution and free radicals. Furcellaria prevents dehydration caused by the elements, while nipplewort stimulates skin’s own natural defence mechanisms.
And that’s not all! Bamboo extract helps to firm the skin, while organic houseleek resists dehydration. Organic oat sugars soothe sensitivity while inhibiting dryness, with organic horse chestnut flower activating skin’s micro -nutrient network for a boost of radiance to transform dullness and lacklustre skin. A final shot of caffeine has been added for its toning effect on the skin, helping to eradicate tiredness. It’s the best of nature and science combined!
And because Clarins have such dedicated commitments to respecting the environment, they ensure the traceability of these natural ingredients to make sure its future is not threatened. They favour fair trade and organic programmes while respecting biodiversity.

The red cyclical bottle has a unique silver twist-top, which as you twist it slides away a red guard to reveal the pump feature. This keeps the formula hygienic and ensures application is a mess-free breeze at the beginning and end of each day. The red bottle is made from recycled materials, while the outer packaging is sourced from sustainably managed forests and is recyclable too.
