I’m going to start off with some compliments: The step-and-repeat and carpet situation here works well, and I personally really like Clarins as a brand. Their packaging is so nice! I love this depuffing face mask they make! I also like this moisturizer specifically made for my neck! I basically have liked everything I’ve ever bought from them. However: Have we not come to a place in human history where we can stop naming every event/celebration/opening of a new bottle of shampoo an “icons” event? (Or, in Clarins case, an ICONS event. Maybe it’s an acronym and they’re actually celebrating Intellectual Colorful Original Neat Salamanders and secretly this event is about amphibians.) Not everything needs to be called ICONIC or LEGENDARY or whatever. You can just throw a fancy party for your brand! Anyway, let’s look at what people wore.
