Cleansers & Exfoliators > Clinique Cleansers & Exfoliators

Advantages: Only cleaning routine that works for me
Disadvantages: Very expensive to buy all 3 products at once

...2 of the 3 step clinique system. As I have really sensitive skin I have to use the mild clarifying lotion instead of the normal lotions which are numbered 1, 2 and 3. I have tried many different clensing products over the last 5 years and this one is the best for my skin. The other products I have tried have given me an allergic reaction, such as itchiness and my face swelling up so I was worried about trying this due to the inital expense, but ...
...she had similar problems. Clinique do claim that no one can be allergic to their products because of their strict testing,but I do know some people who have found the products to dry out their skin. I do ocassionally get dry skin, but I only cleanse once a day instead of the recommended twice and use a free extra moisturising gel for 2/3 days and it fully hydrates the skin again. I always try to buy my clinque products when they are on offer in ... Read review

Advantages: Cleanses without drying
Disadvantages: None

...had read a lot about Clinique and it's 3 step regime of skincare of cleanse, clarify and moisturise so decided to give it a try. There was a Clinique stand at my local department store which to my delight had a special offer on of buy one full size product from the 3 step range and get the other two as free samples. Always one for a bargain I thought that'll do me! The Clinique assistant told me she would ask me 8 questions about my skin and the ...

Advantages: keeps oily skin under control without drying
Disadvantages: size of bottles not good for travelling

I've been using this product for 5 months now, and it's still having the same effect as when I started using it. I'm particularly prone to spots and blackheads, and have oily skin, which can seem dull, but this product manages the greasiness, and when I do have a breakout of spots deals with them quickly. More importantly though, it does not dry the skin, or cause any irriation as other clensers for oily skin can. I also like the fact that you ...
...wool after use, it's dirty, so clearly getting rid of something! Found another use for it on holiday as well, works well to sooth irritation from insect bites! Only used it in desperation as didn't have anything else to use, but it worked very well. Main disadvantage is the size of the bottles it comes in, great for value for money, but a smaller travel size bottle would be handy for taking away. ... Read review

Advantages: Perfect in the begining - terrifying after two weeks of use.
Disadvantages: It turn my skin into a mess.

...3-step skin care system from Clinique kept my attention: it was simple, clean design, nice brand, expensive (dont like this one..). Well, as usual I bought my first one from the online Hong-Kong based shop (much cheaper...) Sasa. Strawberry.net is an option, too. In my regular skin care, toner is one of my favourite products. I cant really pass from clean to cream without feeling bad with myself. Toner takes off the rest of cleaning products, the ...
...skin. Toner: a must. Clinique says that this is not a toner: its an exfoliate lotion. Whatever. It was my first tought, but after I uset it, I really felt the difference between these little miracle and all the toners I've been using until now. It cleans! When I rub the cotton in my face with a tiny-tiny amount of lotion I felt a freshness and a clean sensation that I've never experienced with another toner. And the cotton came a little darker ...

Advantages: Fresh and clean feeling, improved skin condition.
Disadvantages: Bottle opening could be improved.

...this clarifying lotion from any Clinique counter in the Cosmetics area in Department Stores (the bit that always smells lush) or in places like Boots the Chemist or online (cheapsmells.com is cheapest I have found so far) It sells at £23.00 for 400ml (£23.00 for 487ml at the moment from the Clinique Website) or £14.00 for 200ml RRP but you can get it cheaper. After my skin started to become oily/combination I realised good 'ol soap and water just ...
...nearest Clinique counter as I new it was a well-reputed brand. The Clinique Expert really was an expert and asked me all about the different areas on my face in my consultation and then she advised me what products would suit my skin type best - I really do recommend taking a few minutes to speak to one of the experts! In the 3-step skincare regime, she recommended this lotion as step 2 (this was 6 years ago). Having never used a toner or lotion ... Read review
