Clinique CX Redness Relief Cream

Advantages: An excellent product and works for my unpredictable skin!!
Disadvantages: Very expensive and lack of availability

...I log on to the Clinique website (www.clinique.co.uk) from time to time in search of offers, competitions or any new items being added to the range. Last month I discovered the Clinique CX range on the website and was very interested in trying the Soothing Moisturizer ……..well that’s until I saw the price!! £60 for 50ml seemed very expensive!!. Firstly I must point out that the CX products are currently exclusive to Harrods. There are 3 products currently in the range, those being Rapid Recovery Cream, Soothing Moisturizer and Redness Relief Cream. Today I shall be reviewing the Soothing Moisturizer. So as I have already mentioned this item is exclusive to Harrods. Not much good if you don’t live in London. I so wanted to try this but was not prepared to pay postage costs on top of the cost of the item. It’s not as if I could... Read review

Advantages: Lasts a long time, it really does remove dead skin cells
Disadvantages: A little pricey

...I was given a sample tube of 7 day scrub cream in one of the clinique bonus packs and it is one of the best freebies that I have tried. It really does exfoliate, I have tried a lot of so-called exfoliators in my time but this does get rid of the dead skin cells. It leaves my face feeling extrememly smooth and very clean. My foundation literally glides on once I have used the 7 day scrub. When using it I rub it over my closed lips also as it is brilliant for removing dry skin on the lips too. It costs £13.95 but does last a long time and helps to avoid blocked pores which lead to blackheads. My skin has felt and looked at its best since using this product. I am a clinique fan but only buy things that do work, and this does work.... Read review

Advantages: Cleared my cracked lips up within three days of use
Disadvantages: Tiny tube...I wish it was larger

...'Blistex relief cream is a medicated lip cream that can be used for treating occasional cold sores, cracked, chapped and sore lips.' The above is what is says on the packaging..... and It truely DOES do what it says on the tin. This is a nice and simple no frills product. So now you know what it says it does... I'll explain to you my personal experiences of the product. I have a very bad habit of licking my lips. This happens when I am stressed, concentrating for long periods of time, or working really hard under pressure. What normally happens is this.... I lick my lips then I dry them... with my sleeve, hand, tissue etc. I lick them again, then dry them....the lips become dry and cracked from this constant fussing, and the more dry and cracked they become, the more I need to lick them. By the end of a day of licking... Read review
