I've been using Clinique for about 5 years, since I was 18 and had money to spend. I no longer have money to spend as I have my first house - but I am addicted. I can't say it's all that good to be honest for the price. I use the three step (soap, clarifying lotion & moisturising gel) and several other products such as the exfoliator, wash away gel cleanser, pore minimiser - to name a few - plus some of the cosmetics, but not all. I feel though that I don't want to take the risk of returning to cheaper makes, even though I'm sure some are just as good. I have spots still at 23 which makes me so fed up, but they have many anti-blemish treatments which are very harsh, but work quickly. I use the gel, the night time gel and the back & chest spray. Whichever of the products you buy they have several alternatives. Plus you have to give each one a fair try as skin takes time to renew - hence the fact I don't think it's great, but 5 years down the line I'm still using it!! The bathing products are lovely and make you feel special before a night out - a bit of luxury and all that. The cosmetics are very good, but I don't use all the range - simply because of the price. I would say if you have it to spend then indulge - you spend loads maintaining your car/house/whatever, so why not your skin. But beware - it's not a miracle cure and there are so so many products. Bonus times are the best ever - they happen in Boots, Debenhams and House of Fraser and give you rather generous samples to try to new product and cosmetics. Oh, and finally don't be afraid to speak to the ladies at the counter - they really are there to help and offer a good service to tailor the products to your needs - and you are actually paying for them in the product price.

This tends to be too harsh for my skin - Kupo x
