Clinique Rinse-Off Foaming Cleanser

Advantages: Leaves you squeaky clean
Disadvantages: Obsolete if you use the rest of the range

...conjunction with the three step Clinique plan (including soap, cleanser and moisturiser) but really unless you are some one that wears a lot of make up (which I don't) or have a particularly dirty job I don't really see the value of this product. For men using the Clinique range I would say this is not necessary - and for women that only use light make up I would say the same. The deeper cleansing action might prove useful though to either those ... Read review

Advantages: Allergy tested, fragrance free.
Disadvantages: Relatively expensive, 13 pounds for 150ml

I bought this product because i suffer from slightly dry skin and believed that a good quality (in other words, more expensive) cleanser would be kinder to my skin while cleansing. This product has a wonderful thick texture which is to be lathered up on wet palms. The product does exactly as described, it foams up meaning that a little goes a long way. You then massage onto a wet face working into all the areas but avoid the eyes as it really does ...
...area you are then told to rinse thoroughly. This is definitely wise as the product has a tendancy to leave the skin feeling tight, pretty much the same feeling as using soap. I would recommend using a good moisturiser after having cleansed as this product because although it doesn't dry out the skin as such, it is left feeling smooth and clean, but you can feel that the skin needs and extra something to bring back a glow. As a cleanser it works ... Read review

Advantages: Feels lovely and creamy
Disadvantages: Adds an extra step in your routine

...this free when buying other clinique products and have been using it for about 1 week. I don't think that there is any difference to the quality of my skin, but it does feel lovely to use. You use this before doing steps 1 (soap), 2 (clarifying lotion) and 3 (moisturiser) thus turning the process into 4 steps. You only need to use a very small amount of the product as it foams up when you rub it onto your face and feels really creamy, so a small ...
...if not longer. After using the soap as well your face feels really super clean and fresh. I don't think that I would buy a full size tube of this product as I don't really wear a lot of make up where I think you would get the real benefit of a deep cleaning product. But it is nice to use and I would gladly use more if I got free samples of it again! ... Read review

Advantages: Leaves skin so clean it really does squeak!!
Disadvantages: Leaves skin feeling tight if used alone, need alterenative eye makeup remover

For me this cleanser does the job its meant for, its designed for makeup removal which it does perfectly but isn't suitable for use on its own as it leaves the skin feeling slightly tight. I spend alot of time in london and feel that after a day in the city centre that my skin needs a through clean and this does the job. I tend to wear waterproof cream eye liner and hard wearing mascaras for which I need a strong but gentle eye makeup remover for ...
...where I keep the rinse off foaming cleanser. Using a small amount I lather it up in my hands and run my hands over my face avoiding the eyes as I have found it stings. Then rinse off under the shower. This product needs rinsing off throughly and followed by a good mosituriser. I think if you wear alot of makeup or are in areas of high pollution then use it as it makes skin feel so clean, but to be honest the liquid facial soap in the 3 step system ... Read review
