This is £18.50 for 30ml; it might sound expensive for some people, and cheap for others.
Usually people buy from drug stores and so they kind of get used to the low prices, but for someone who doesn't buy in drug stores they would probley find this a reasonable price as clinique is well known for its beauty products.

Use the sponge given to you in the compact or any other sponges and smooth it ...
Advantages: natural finish, long lasting, great for asian skin Disadvantages: cost
In the past whenever I have approached one of the ladies behind a makeup counter for help on finding a foundation to suit my skin, I have always walked away not pleased.
These ladies have come across as being very helpful & they do try their best but they have always tried colours on my skin that were a few shades too dark unfortunately.
