Behind the Glow: Backstage at Chloé & Isabel Marant

Fresh, glass-like skin was the look backstage at the Chloé and Isabel Marant SS27 shows during Paris Fashion Week, and iS Clinical was behind it.

Before a single brush touched a face, facialists used iS Clinical to prep every model's skin. The goal was simple: a calm, hydrated, luminous base that lets makeup sit beautifully and still looks like real skin under the runway lights.

The good news? The exact regime they used is one you can follow at home.

Cleanse and tone

Step 1: Cream Cleanser
Every prep started with a clean canvas. This mild, nourishing cleanser with Coconut Oil, Glycerin and Squalane gently cleanses while helping maintain the skin's natural moisture barrier, so skin never feels tight before makeup.

Step 2: Daily Active Smoothing Toner
A multi-acid exfoliating toner that hydrates, balances and refines. It helps minimise the appearance of pores and refreshes skin texture for a smooth, healthier-looking glow, the kind that makes foundation glide on.

Mist and treat

Step 3: Copper Firming Mist
A quick veil added a refreshing hit of moisture. This multi-benefit mist pairs antioxidants with Copper PCA to help support the skin's natural barrier, perfect for reviving skin between looks.

Step 4: Pro-Heal Serum® ADVANCE+®
Long show days can leave skin looking stressed. This advanced Vitamin C serum with multi-antioxidant support helps visibly reduce redness in environmentally stressed skin.

Hydrate

Step 5: Hydra-Cool Serum®
For bounce and plumpness, this lightweight, oil-free hydrating serum helps soften skin and smooth the appearance of fine lines, without any heaviness under makeup.

Step 6: Daily Dynamic Hydrator
The final step locked everything in. An advanced 3-in-1 formula with GeneXC Technology that hydrates, defends and renews skin, leaving that dewy, camera-ready finish.
