Review: Clarins diamond box - summer edition

The Clarins diamond box - summer edition is a box filled with Clarins products worth €226 and because it is summer, you also get a pretty beach bag. It originally costs €129 (the Club Clarins price is €116.10), but as a new club member, I got 20% off my first online purchase, so it was only €103.20. Spending more than €70, you can pick out four deluxe samples and get a free tin box, and spending over €100, you also get a tote bag and a 100 ml tube of the Clarins moisture rich body lotion. Every purchase also comes with 3 samples of your choice. In total, I get to try out 17 different Clarins products and I also got a big blue beach bag, a flower print rectangular tin, and a cotton tote bag with a cartoon print of a girl picking out her next destination by stopping a spinning globe with her finger. It is pretty good value for your money. Previously, I have never used anything from Clarins, so it is a nice way to try their products out. In department stores in Asia, I have seen the Clarins lip comfort oils in cute colors being a big hit and I have always been wanting to try them.
