The Clinique facial soap is advertised usually as part of the Clinique three step program (clinique cleanse, clinique tone, clinique moisturize) which always makes me feel like I have my own personal trainer. Cleanse Emma, Cleanse. Tone that face - tone harder! I have tried this several times but its not for me - I have a side affair with a different moisturizer which doesn't seem to yell at me. So despite heavy advertising you ...

Advantages: Actually work to reduce oil, compact Disadvantages: Not good on all skins, part of a routine (althoough you do get used to it)
My experience with the Clinique Facial Soap was an eye opener! When you first think of cleaning your face with soap, (well myself at least) I was actually quite negative as normal soaps can dry your skin and alter the natural production of oils within the face, therefore not seeming te best option. However the lady at the Clinque counter was quick to intervene.
Who is it recommended for?

The Facial Soap is recommended ... ...to purchase and price
********************************
Clinique products can be purchased from most major department stores such as House of Fraser and Debenams, to stores such as Boots (often the larger retail stores). Once you have found the products right for you, it is easy to order online. Prices are either £9.50 or £12 dpending on the size you opt for. To be honest the price is great given that a normal bar of soap lasts for absolutley ages ...

...3Step Type 1,2 programme from Clinique (see my review if you wish), which left me believing this regime of wash, exfoliate, moisturize with the Clinique products was just fodder, freeing innocent people of their hard earned cash, but I was wrong in the end. Yes, 'open-mouth-insert-foot' kind of wrong, and boy am I glad I was! I always liked Clinique products, and had been disappointed when the 3Step programme didn't work for me, but there was a reason ... ...So why did I give Clinique a second chance? I received the 3Step programme for my skin type from my mum as a gift, she bought it for me in the States as it was much cheaper, and she knew I used some Clinique products.

The soap I am now using is for skin type III/IV, known as 'extra-strength oily skin formula'. It is available as Three Little Soaps (three bars each @ 50g), as a 100g or 150g bar, with or without dish. The soap itself ...

I could list quite a few of my problems hehe, but one of the most annoying is the trouble I have had with my skin.

I was so convinced by great recommendations that the 3 Step System would leave my skin beautiful, that I was going to buy the facial soap as soon as I got some money.
Last week, I was in a big department store, and passed the Clinique ...

...so I decided to give Clinique products a go, after hearing good things about Clinique and spotting their counter in Debenhams.
The rather helpful assistant gave me some free samples of the extra strength soap (as I have oily skin) and the clarfying lotion no3. I must say that i was surprised to be given soap as a cleanser, but as soon as I tried it I instantly fell in Love with this soap. It lathers up well enough and left my skin looking and feeling ... ...is green with the word CLINIQUE written in silver on the top, it makes a very attractive addition to the bathroom, and keeps peoples mitts off your precious soap!!
I really truly recommend this soap to anyone, I can see a visable improvement in my skin and I think the soap is worth every penny. It is maybe advisable to try a sample first to see if you like it, the samples last for ages too!
A definite must for my cleansing needs! ...

Advantages: Lovely soap. Lasts for ages and causes no iriitation to the skin Disadvantages: The price..but well worth it in the long run
I have been using Clinique soap for years now, amongst there other products but I can honestly say that, in my opinion, this is the only soap that I have ever used that doesn't make my skin itch or feel too dry or cause any aggravation. I have tried everything from Dove, Simple and all the Body Shop bran soaps etc but none have them have done the trick or made my face feel clean..more like they should be used for my hands rather than the sensitive ... ...the Clinique soap really does last for months. When i first saw it i was like 'No way am i spending £8 on a bar of soap'!!!! but really it lasts ages and is well worth the extra money. It comes in it's own box which keeps it protected and it doesn't seem to diminish like other soaps do, even when you get to the end of the bar it is still a solid lump not a mass of goo!
I find it extremely gentle on my skin, leaving it clean and soft. I'm sounding ...

...I ventured up to the Clinique counter in my local Debenhams. This may sound daft, but I had always avoided Clinique because my Mum used the clarifying lotion once in the seventies and swears it was like paint stripper. The consultant was very helpful and suggested the oily formula (IV) soap for my skin, in conjunction with the oil free moisture lotion. That was two years ago and my skin has never been better.
First of all, it has to be said that ... ...me for a whole year, being used twice a day. At £8.00 a bar that makes it extremely good value. The covered soap dish that it is supplied in keeps it clean and fresh and prevents it from becoming squishy in the shower.
Being a bar, you use it in the same way as you would use any soap so it is really simple and quick. It lathers and rinses easily and leaves my skin feeling really smooth and soft. I rarely get spots now and the overall appearance ...

...reached for a bar of Clinique Facial Soap.
This is the first step of the world famous Clinique 3 Step Program and comes in 3 strengths (best going to a Clinique counter to find out which is best suitable for your skin type particularly those with more sensitive skins). The price is £8.50 for a 100g bar which some might say is a bit pricey for what is essentially a facewash under the guise of a soap and you can get it from all good make up stores ... ...Clinique ethos it is both fragrance free. However, it also states that it is 100% allergy tested which I've just read somewhere means that it has been tested on animals- I can't seem to find any official word on this but if anyone has any definitive answer feel free to let me know as it would let me buy the products guilt-free or not, as the case may be.

Advantages: long lasting, deep cleaning Disadvantages: not suited to every skin type and expensive
A few years ago when I was at University I found that my combination skin was getting more and more breakouts (stress, hormones, etc.) and I decided to use the three step routine by Clinique. The lady behind the counter was very persuasive and recommended me to try the normal soap and the clarifying lotion with the oil free moisturiser. I have to say that at first I loved the products and felt that my skin was very clean after I used them. However, ... ...and went to my beautician to ask her what I could do. She told me that the products I was using were drying my skin so that although I felt my skin was clean it was actually stripping it of its natural oils and my skin was producing more and more to compensate for this loss. I was so surprised but stopped using the soap and clarifying lotion (though stayed with the moisturiser) and found that my combination skin returned more towards controllable ...

...However, one try of Clinique soap (I use mild) and I was converted. It made my skin feel fresh, clean and hydrated. There was no tight feeling like there is after washing with normal soap. I couldn`t believe it and I recomended it to lots of friends who didn`t already use it. It is much quicker in the morning to wash your face before applying moisturiser than to cleanse it and my face felt just as good. After a while I felt as if I was `cheating` ... ...for soap £11 approx. Clinique products are not cheap though and they are usually good so I thought I would give it a chance. The packaging was good, it comes in a box and the soap is in a dish. Inside the dish the soap is wrapped in silver paper so the good presentation makes it more worthy of the price. I was pleasantly suprised at the length of time that this soap lasts, though I admit I tend to just keep it for my face (it is facial soap) so I ...

I have never really used soap to wash with as in our house we only have a shower so shower gel seems to be the best thing to use.

Advantages: Skin feels cleansed after use Disadvantages: Very expensive for a bar of soap!
I bought Clinique's Facial Soap two weeks ago, and I think that it was vastly over-priced. The soap itself does not have a nice scent nor does it cleanse my skin any better than an ordinary, cheaper soap. I found that after I used the soap, my skin was cleansed but felt really tight. The soap did not remove all traces of makeup and therefore a separate make-up remover had to be used. After I had used the soap for a week, my skin felt really dry and ...

I use this Clinique Soap - the mild formula - combined with the 3-step system. Ive bought it in Strawberry.net (cheaper, cheaper).
I normally wash my skin with liquid soap, from various brands, but I always love the idea of using a solid soap: it seems for me more classical, easy-going way to clean your skin. And I just love the green box that come with it...
Anyway, the soap.
I've bought the big one, 150g size, and it seems it will last for ages. ... ...your hands, rub the soap into, and then face in it. Voilá.
The first thing I notice is that it doesnt make any bubbles: its good, I think it means that doesn't have any detergent ingredients on it, or the most abrasive ones. And when you rub into your face, it seems almost like a cleaning lotion, or a light cream. Great texture.
The second thing Ive noticed is that smells like grandmother soap. Yes, it really smells like soap. Well, I like that ...
