Clinique 3-Step Skincare System Step 1 (Cleanse) Facial Soap Extra Mild

Clinique 3-Step System Type I/II

Advantages: The ddml is great
Disadvantages: The soap is terrible

I must admit, I am a bit of a sucker for overpriced cosmetics, skincare products being one of my weaknesses. Last spring, I decided to indulge in a pampering skincare routine, and visited my local perfumerie to find out what would make my skin turn to peaches and cream (I hoped overnight). It was suggested I try the tried-and-true Clinique 3-Step program. I was promised better skin in just two weeks! I was less than thrilled with my (very pricey) purchases. The combo: The three step skincare program consist of a bar of hard milled soap according to skin type (I was assigned type I/II which is normal to combination skin), a clarifying lotion also according to skintype (I was recommended to use 'clarifying lotion 2'), and Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion, aka DDML, for all skin types. For the whole set which consisted ...

Review of Clinique 3 Step Skin Care

Neurotic Males Guide to Skincare

Advantages: Works, Looks Nice, Great Results
Disadvantages: Expensive, Uses Some Controversial Ingredients

.00 Liquid: 200ml = £13.00 This is more expensive than alot of cleansers on the market, but I believe that it is worth it as it is very effective at clearing the skin, prepping it for the other steps in the system and making your face feel clean, supple and oil free. I would give this product four stars out of five. Clarifying Lotion This comes in four strengths for different skin care needs (mild, 1, 2, 3, 4) and arrives in a clear plastic bottle, with a screw top, the Clinique logo and four different colours of liquid inside. This is the most controversial and criticised step in Clinique's core range, mainly because of its ingredients; denatured alcohol is seen to cause drying and accelerate the ageing process and some people argue that daily exfoliation is unbeneficial to the skin (making it less able to fight external aggressors ...

Review of Clinique 3 Step Skin Care

Almost 3 steps to perfect skin

Advantages: It works
Disadvantages: the price the moisturizer

and sensitive skin. Mild for normal or combination skin Oily skin formula - for greasy and oil skin As with all the products in the 3 step system they are hypoallergenic and unperfumed. As I said previously Clinique products are not cheap and in the UK this is even more so. The prices here are the recommended prices from the Clinique website. Prices in dollars are done for comparison purposes. Mild, Extra mild, oil skin soap -100g - £8.50 ( $10 - sizes not mentioned on the web site) Mild, extra mild, oil skin soap - 150g -£11 3 mini soaps available in all formulas - total weight 150g - £12 ( $14.50) ~Step 2~ So this is where you slap on the stingy toner isn't it you're probably thinking. Now the bottle of water like solution you have may look like toner but according to Clinique it most definitely isn't a toner! It ...
