This will be an ongoing evolving website.

All of the information provided on this site is a compilation of information accessible to the general public.  Any and all corporate documentations referencing Clarins are a matter of public record and therefore not classified as private or confidential.  Therefore, as such, dissemination is fully and freely granted.

 

 

New:  Clarins and Thierry Mugler involved in multimillion dollar ANTI-TRUST lawsuit settlement.

New: The NTEF is available to assist in any personal injury case against Clarins.                     

New:  Are you buying a $250.00 bottle of a plasticizer? Yes, if you purchase Double Serum Generation 6.  Diethylhexyl Adipate is made by Eastman.

                     New:  Angel Parfum Petition Moves to Second Stage of FDA Review.

               New:  Synthetic ingredients in Clarins "Natural and Botanically" products tied to "pore clogging, allergens".  Again we ask "Why are you deceiving the public with your false advertising, Clarins?"

                 New:  Can Brain Damage Be Just a Sniff Away? Ageless Radio- Audio  with Dr. Michael Brickey    

                     WARNING:  If you have a latex allergy do NOT use any product containing DIMETHICONE!  As one of its synonyms is Latex. 

                   New:  Yes, Clarins uses some of these problematic chemicals in their products. Caveat Emptor!

Look how many of these dirty dozen chemicals Clarins uses.

Behind the Label: Garnier's Ambre Solaire Gloss Bronzer.  These same skin DAMAGING chemicals are in Clarins tanning products. Clarins is FAR from SAFE ad NATURAL!

                   Upcoming:  Analysis of Double Serum Generation 6.  Yes, this is the same product that was seized by the Food and Drug Administration for labeling violations. 

                 New:  Clarins suspends stock trading!  Are they concerned that there might be some "discrepancies" discovered in their financials?  We are working on the concerns that we have discovered in their year ending 2007 financials. 

There is a rumor that they might buy an organic company...another attempt to deceive the consumer?  Stay tuned, as we are ready to analyze the ingredients they put into this possible organic line.  Just because a product has organic ingredients, if it has other toxic chemicals that does not equate to safe.   

            New:  Letter to Clarins requesting information as per their Customer Relations Department                   

                      Oxy-Moron:  Clarins tried to entice sales by offering 100% of profits to Childhelp if you buy any sun protection product  online.  Yet, there is a PEANUT ingredient in one of them.  When are they going to STOP pushing peanuts on unsuspecting parents?        

Warning:  Chemical ingredient conflicts in Clarins products.

Another ingredient used by Clarins is called into questioned: "The biggest concerns are the UV inhibitors...octocrylene, or OC..."  This is another red flag regarding natural and botanical.  Currently found in Sunscreen Smoothing Cream Progressive Tanning,  Sunscreen Smoothing Cream-Gel Rapid Tanning,  Pore Minimizing Serum,  HydraQuench Lotion, and Advanced Extra Firming Day Lotion and Sunscreen.

Benzophenone is also referenced as a "harmful chemical in sunscreens". We          first notified the FDA on December 20, 2007, of the health risks associated           with Benzophenone-2 in Angel Parfum.

                     Update: Clarins ignores request for Material Safety Data Sheets

                     Coming soon: We are working on the ultimate anti wrinkle protocol that comprises not a single toxic or chemical ingredient.  We will be providing what a truly safe, effective and naturally based treatment protocol should be.  No preservatives, no hype, no false promises, no marketing slants.  Immediate results that will be viewable from an online video.  This will be provided free of charge as we do not believe that you need to be financially abused in order to achieve any beauty benefits.

 We are a watchdog organization out to protect the unsuspecting public from deceptive words used on cosmetic and fragrance packages. In order to be effective and thorough, you cannot take a broad brush approach. 

We prefer to base our statements on verifiable documents that cannot be disputed

We have a verified corporate document from Clarins own testing laboratory in France, that fully confirms our assertions that they did in fact with malice, greed and forethought sell this unsafe product to the American consumer. Along with failing to warn consumers regarding ingredients in which the chemical, physical and toxicological properties and data have not been thoroughly investigated, determined or evaluated.

Did you have normal thyroid levels then discover that your thyroid levels had changed?  If so, did you start wearing Angel Perfume?  If in the affirmative, you may want to discuss with your physician the possibility that the endocrine disrupting chemical additive Benzophenone-2*, as a possible cause for the change.  As only your physician can confirm this association.

Did you wear Angel Perfume during your pregnancy?  Have you been told that your child is "exhibiting mild neurological dysfunctions or less favourable task-oriented and social-emotional behaviour"? You may want to discuss the possibility of an exposure to Coumarin with your medical practitioner. As only your physician can confirm this association.

Finally, no marketing slants, only the cold, hard core scientific documentation regarding the ingredients.   Natural and botanically based products should be just that: Natural and Botanical.  Not ingredients that are suspected of causing breast cancer, harm to the unborn fetus, tumorigens, mutagens, reproductive effectors, respiratory irritants, to reference a few. 

You may be asking yourself, can we prove these statements.  The Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) will confirm our allegations.  Until Clarins removes these toxic ingredients from their products they will remain under investigation of our classification of deceptive marketing claims.

The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics "is a coalition working to protect your health by calling for the elimination of chemicals used in the cosmetics industry linked to cancer, birth defects and other health problems." 

 As of May 28, 2008, Clarins is still refusing to sign onto the Safe Cosmetics Campaign.  Demand accountability for their failure to truly be natural and botanically based. Consumers ask yourself, if Clarins is all that they claim, why haven't they signed on to the campaign?  The answer is extremely simple, they can't pass the requirements to qualify:  their contamination of our bodies, or qualities they possess that pose hazards including carcinogens, endocrine disrupters, sensitizers, mutagens, reproductive toxins, developmental toxins and neurotoxins”, as a preponderance of their ingredients fit those hazards.

The launching of their new line called "My Blend" by Olivier Courtin-Clarins, is in our opinion an excuse to overcharge for using his name.  It is well known in the cosmetics industry that utilizing a reference to a dermatologist automatically ascribes more creditability to a cosmetic product.  That affords these companies the right to charge more for these products. We are currently working on disclosing what we consider questionable chemical ingredients in the "My Blend" line by Olivier Courtin-Clarins.

               To the Stockholders:  Please be aware that all the references are documented and the photographs are from products currently on retail shelves in the United States which we have purchased.  We welcome your questions and concerns.  We are highly transparent, if Clarins was also, they would provide the testing and MSDS to disprove our statements. Contact their corporate offices in New York at 212.980.1800 and ask them why they are not providing the information that we have requested.

  As a courtesy to those who have stock:              

              Clarins SA                                 Clarins SA (ADR- CRASY) 

              Clarins SA (PINK:CRASF)   Clarins Grupo (PINK:GRCNL)

We will allow you to determine if the information in the financials correlates to what was described and what is actually being sold according to the package ingredients, ie natural and botanical. We opine that there are more questionable chemical ingredients than beneficial natural or botanically based ingredients in the finished products.

 In reviewing other products by Clarins, we have discovered an additional two dozen labeling violations.  Petitions are in the final editing and legal review stages.

Medical doctors who  have no financial interest have confirmed that stretch mark creams do not work.  Clarins references regarding dermatologist tested, we believe is a reference to one of the founders sons, Oliver Courtin-Clarins who apparently disagrees. We do not believe that he is part of the American College of Obstetrician and Gynocologists who have stated "that we can rub whatever we like on our pregnant bellies, but we can't stop the stretch marks." We question the science behind Clarins product which claim to prevent stretch marks.

Have you suffered any ill effects or injuries from any Clarins products?  If so, our Toxicologist is ready to assist your legal team with his decades of experience in such matters.  Remember "beauty should not be injurious to anyone".  Most importantly immediately notify the Food and Drug Administration of any adverse reaction/s you may experience.

Clarins has a propensity towards using the following known toxins/allergens in their natural and botanically based cosmetics and fragrances.

We invite you to peruse the health risks as defined in the MSDS and allow you to determine, do these toxic ingredients equate to what you have perceived in your mind as natural and botanical? We have outlined for easy reference a  Summary   of the health risks associated with the MSDS that we were able to locate.
