    Broke immediately! I used this product for about 2 weeks before the pump started to malfunction. Now the product will not even come out of the bottle. I contacted customer care and no response.

    I've been using this product for years, and either Chanel has changed the specific pump they use, the solution, or I received damaged product; but, the my solution does not foam and I've received no response to my complaint.

Is the La Mousse Clarifiante a cleanser. I Use Le Mousse to wash my face. What does the Clarifiante do?
Donna G on Dec 29, 2025
BEST ANSWER: La Mousse Clarifiante is also a cleanser, but it delivers a more advanced, purifying action compared to Le Mousse. While Le Mousse is perfect for everyday cleansing, La Mousse Clarifiante gently exfoliates to clarify, smooth, and brighten the complexion for a more radiant look.
Can you use this to remove makeup?
Lisa T on Nov 28, 2023
BEST ANSWER: The LA MOUSSE CLARIFIANTE REFINING LOTION-TO-FOAM is not for removing makeup. This product is a gentle self-foaming lotion enriched with 2 naturally derived AHAs. Apply to clean, dry skin and do not rinse.
I have sensitive skin. Are there any ingredients or Chanel products I should not use after applying this?
Miss D on Nov 25, 2023
BEST ANSWER: CHANEL products undergo several tests to ensure an optimal tolerance. In order to be as safe as possible, they are systematically tested on a pool of volunteers, 30% of which have a sensitive skin.

That said, if you have specific questions regarding your current condition, we recommend that you consult your physician who is in the best position to advise you.
Can I use it before Le lift products?
Elena B on Oct 30, 2023
BEST ANSWER: Yes, the LA MOUSSE CLARIFIANTE REFINING LOTION-TO-FOAM can be used before Le Lift products.
