Advantages: Does remove oil and dirt from skin Disadvantages: Too harsh
...this as part of my Clinique 3 Step Routine and it's the only part of the routine that I don't really like. It costs £14 for a 200ml bottle but unlike the cleanser and the moisturiser, this one doesn't last that long. There are 4 different types to choose from which are just numbered from 1 - 4 , this one, number 3, is for oily skin. It comes in a pink see through bottle with a lid that just screws on, but there's no special dispenser or applicator, ... ...just so harsh, even though Clinique products are all supposed to be safe for sensitive skin, I really don't think this one would be. My skin does feel nice and smooth and fresh after using it, but like I already said if I use it too often it makes my skin dry and tight. I don't think it's doing my skin much good in the long run so I don't think I'll buy it again, I'll look around for another toner to use with my cleanser and moisturiser. ...

Advantages: Sweeps away anything the cleanser missed Disadvantages: Stings, and dries out the skin.
Clinique Clarifying Lotion for oily skin is Step 2 of the "3 step skin care system" by clinique.
Clarifying lotion for oily skin is in an opaque dusky pink bottle, with a pistachio green screw cap. It carries the distinct clinique logo in silver print.
All clarifying lotions by clinique, are toning exfoliators, which lift away dead surface skin cells to make the complexion smoother.
This is step 2, as step 1 gets rid of dirt, oil and debris from ... ...I think that the Clinique Clarifying Lotion for oily skin does work quite well, and does just what is said, but the formula is too strong for mildly oily skin types, and combination oily like myself. So it only caters for the needs of v.oily skin without being a source of discomfort and irritation. So, a good product, but only if you suffer from ALOT of oil. ...

Advantages: It unclogs pores very well Disadvantages: Stings
I have to admit that I've had this product on my shelf for a few years and shyed away from it as it was quite painful to use. It does sting, and can dehydrate your skin a littel bit. My skin would feel tight but smooth after use. I didn't use it regularly because of this. Then one evening, fed up with not being able to shift my foundation, I put some Clarifying Lotion 3 on some cotton wool and for want of a better word started to gently rub my face ... ...this for a week or so and found my skin tone and texture improved, blemishes cleared and pores refine. I feel on top of my skin care now and use it once a day (twice is too often I find), in the evening to get rid of the last traces of make up from my pores. I would recommend this ONLY to people with the OILIEST skins as it is heavy duty and would be to harsh for most. ...

Advantages: Only a small amount is needed so it lasts ages Disadvantages: Expensive - approx £23 for 400 mls but look online for cheaper prices
I have mainly oily skin which is prone to very bad spots, but I started using this product just over a year ago and I love it. It really cleanses my skin, removing excess make-up, grease and dirt which would otherwise clog my pores. I still get the occasional break out but my skin recovers much more quickly since using it. It leaves the texture of my skin much smoother and enables moisturiser to absorb in much better. I have had positive comments ... ...this product. I find that if I stop using it for a period of time, my skin appears duller. I also find that foundation looks much better after the appliction of this wonderful product! Overall, my skin is much better after using this product, it leaves it feeling really clean. ...
