  3. Try using the Clarins Santal Oil for your dry skin instead of or under your normal night cream. This will be an instant thirst quench for those times when you're super dry!

    1. Thanks Natash.
      I actually use the Orchid oil a couple of times a month when my skin is dehydrated as I work in an air conditioned environment. It really makes a difference to my skin.
