This is yet another of my beauty products that I have to thank Santa Claus for! I'm addicted to little beauty luxuries but, being a student, my wallet has a morbid fear of them.

Clinique Moisture In-Control differs from conventional moisturisers in that it "helps control oil while providing much needed hydration"- at least that's what it says on the side, and a month's use has confirmed this.

You only get 50ml for your £24, but luckily the packaging and formula are geared up to make a little go a long way.
