Drama may be in the air for you this month, Cancer. You will head into the month with full confidence in your career and finances. However, it’s your social life that is in need of some attention. Having found so much success in your work these past few months, your friends and family have been feeling a bit neglected. It’s time for you to set aside your job and worry about mending and strengthening your relationships. Rather than looking for a quick fix fast, look for a way to grow and nurture your friendships to be even better than they were before.

Similar to your social life, your skin may also been feeling a bit out of whack. A change in the weather hardly ever goes unnoticed and can send your once clear complexion into a bit of a frenzy. What was once dry is now oily and what was once radiant is now fatigued. Clarins has come out with a collection of 6 SOS Primers to combat these issues. Each one works to fight a different finicky skin problem that you may be facing around this time of year. As you work to mend the relationships in your life, Clarins is working just as hard to give you the radiant skin you deserve. Treat your friendships just like all the flowers needing to be nurtured in order to bloom, after all April showers, bring May flowers!!
