Superfit with this foundation :) (Clinique SuperFit Makeup)

Advantages: great coverage and lasts
Disadvantages: slighlty pricey

...This is the best liquid foundation I have tried and believe me I have tried a fair few! The best part is it's more affordable than alot of other high end foundations that don't perform as well. The 17 shades offer a range from ultra fair to olive, i am more of an olive tone so this was great for me. I don't know if there are any darker shades than that, so darker skins may want to choose another foundation. This product is supposed to last all day, however I found that it does fade a little if left on longer than 12 hours. Although many people probably don't need it to last much longer than this! The foundation is great as it doesn't smudge. Clinique sell this product as "transfer resistant" and I can confirm that this is definetly true of this foundation. The foundation is in liquid form so it is really easy to blend...

Review of Clinique Superfit Make-Up

Clinique soft finish foundation!

Advantages: Long lasting coverage, Moisture giving, everything you'd want in a foundation!
Disadvantages: Price, but the price is honestly worth it.

...I am a regular customer of Clinique, and I am, majority of the time, very satsfied with the results. My skin is dry on my cheeks and jawline, but i am prone to spots on my forehead, around my nose and on my chin. I'm a teenager so this is not uncommon. MY EXPERIENCE When i first bought foundation from clinique, (gentle light make up) i found it was not enough coverage, and quite shiny on my face. Allthough it had been the best foundation i'd used until now. After that i was forced to use a different one as this had been discontinued. I used 'clinique superfit make-up', which was far too matte and dry for my skin. It was very patchy, and the woman who supplied me with it (looking orange herself) gave me a shade that was far too dark on my skin. My friend who told me i should get foundation in the first place from clinique...

Review of Clinique Soft Finish Make-Up

Clinique gentle light foundation

Advantages: light coating, luminous, balances imperfections
Disadvantages: not for very oily skin

...I have been using Clinique gentle light makeup now since September. I have tried various different foundations and none of them have really suited my skin. After endless searching I decided to enlist the help of boots makeup artist and found myself drawn to the Clinique section. The makeup artist tried different tones on my skin to find one which suited me nicely. The end product was I came away with 09 cream light foundation by Clinique. This foundation suits various skin types from dry/delicate to oily, although on the packaging it states not for the oiliest skins. The skin types are graded with roman numerals, these range from I to IV, ranging from dry skin to very oily. A quick quiz is used to determine what type of skin you have; this was available in boots and can also be found on the Clinique website under 'My Skin Report...

Review of Clinique Gentle Light Make-Up

Clinique are All About Eyes

Advantages: Tones skin, nice silky texture, diminishes dark circles
Disadvantages: Doesn't rid me completely of the dark circles, no SPF

...so lightweight and silky. It's cooling and soothing on the skin and is absorbed really quickly and effortlessly. It creates a great base for eye makeup, working like a primer to allow concealer or foundation to cling to it and last longer. Clinique recommend using this both morning and evening, and I find that it is lightweight enough to do so. But the real test of an eye cream is in its long term effects. I've now been using this for two months and the skin around my eye is no longer dry or flaky, is more toned and feels a lot smoother. My dark circles are not completely gone, but have been noticeably reduced to the point where my concealer is actually able to fully conceal them, which is a first for me! It certainly works far better than Clinique's Advanced Stop Signs Aging which I had used in the past as I liked the added SPF but which...

Review of Clinique All About Eyes

Clinique Unhappy

Advantages: Allergy tested, Fragrance free, Some improvements to my skin
Disadvantages: Very expensive, Smells like TCP

...As brands of skincare products go, you don't get much bigger (or much more prestigious) than Clinique. Established in 1968, these are cosmetics so posh that they have to be sold by scarily immaculate women in clinical white outfits stationed on special counters in Boots and department stores rather than off the shelf like most brands - and they have price tags to match. Anybody who knows me may well be wondering what someone as cheap as me is doing with such top of the range toiletries. How exactly can I afford to indulge in the legendary "3 Step System" that Clinique purvey? The simple answer is that I can't?but I did find a bottle of their Clarifying Lotion 3 lurking around on ebay for a modest price (by Clinique standards) and decided to give it a try. After all, hadn't I read plenty of glowing reviews here saying how wonderful...

Review of Clinique Clarifying Lotion

Foundation

Advantages: Facinating Concepts, Well Detailed Universe
Disadvantages: You may not own the other volumes to see what happens

...Introduction: This is the first of Issac Asimov's Foundation series, comprising Foundation, Foundation and Empire, Second Foundation, Foundation and Earth and the Prequels, Prelude to Foundation and Forward the Foundation. Although this book stands alone, reading Prelude to Foundation (written 30 years later) first will enhance your enjoyment of the book as it fleshes out much of the rich backstory. Basic Plot: The book begins with the trial of a man named Hari Seldon who has predicted the doom of the Galactic Empire which has stood for thousands of years as the pinnicle of human achievement. He uses his own science of Psycohistory, a science that can predict future events on a large scale buy the statistical analysis of the likley behaviour of large groups of people. This however only works provided that the people...

Review of Foundation - Isaac Asimov

Classy Clinique Aromatics Elixir

Advantages: Little goes a long way really nice fragrance
Disadvantages: none

...I have only just discovered this perfume and I love it. The fragrance is from Estee Lauder subsidary company Clinique. Aromatics comes in a lemon coloured box and the bottle is glass as shown in the picture with a spray top. It retails between £20--£27 for a 25ml size and can be bought at most good department stores and chemists as well as on line from various perfume discount sites. The fragrance has a rich woody dry character with light violet undertones. The rich fragrant ingredients that also have physical benefits include Rose de mai for toning properties Sandalwood and camomile for cleansing Orange blossom to relax muscles White jasmine Oakmoss and Patchouli When first sprayed on it is quite strong and spicey but settles down to a subtle slightly flowery fresh smell which lasts on me until I wash it off which is...

Review of Clinique Aromatics Elixir

Clinique.

Advantages: Jolly good skin
Disadvantages: The price

...Before moving to France, I was one of those women whose most expensive toiletry purchase was a Boots own, three for the price of two, makeup remover/moisturiser/ toner - I really didn't give the subject much thought. On arriving in Paris, I was faced by a very peculiar phenomena - women seemed to spend *A LOT* of money on looking good, not just their clothes, but also their skin care. Not to be outdone by the chic little b*****s (do I sound bitter?), I decided to investigate. The most popular brand here is Lancome, but after discovering that Lancome also own Loreal and basically repackage those items for the Lancome range (and being allergic to most Loreal products), I decided to try out Clinique. Clinique has mystique in Paris, simply because it isn?t a French brand, so I was making one of those one-up-woman-ship deals on my...

Review of Clinique Clinique

Best foundation yet!

Advantages: Great colour
Disadvantages: None

.../\/\/\ Max Factor - Colour Adapt Foundation /\/\/\ Price: £11.95 - Sainsburys (may be cheaper elsewhere) 34ml tube I tried 70 - natural What is it? This is a foundation that apparently adapts to your own skin tone. I've seen this advertised on television but had not got around to trying it out. I've recently tried the Age Renew which I found to be very silky on the skin - a little too silky for me. This also made me look shiny in photos. This is what made me choose the Colour Adapt. Also lot of foundations seem totally the wrong colour. Maybe 'colour adapt' could sort this problem for me. Packaging: This foundation comes in a 34ml clear tube. It's quite a large container. You can see the colour of the foundation through the clear part at the top of the packaging. The front of the packaging...

Rimmel Recover Foundation

Advantages: Nice consistency, gives even coverage
Disadvantages: A little sticky when worn alone, doesn't last 12 hours

...Rimmel is a well-established, respected brand, especially within the UK. It's fairly expensive, but with products like makeup, most girls (maybe some men too!) find that the more you spend, the more beautiful you look. This foundation is part of Rimmel's cosmetics, and found easily within supermarkets, drug stores, and beauty stores in the makeup sections. It's on sale for around £5.60-£5.80, fairly expensive for not a particularly big bottle, but when you take a look at Maybelline and Bourjois foundations, this is generally cheaper. I use this foundation daily. I have very light skin, and have always had a bit of trouble finding a light enough foundation to match. There have been a few foundation incidents where I have looked a bit orangey! I tried and tested many different foundatons on my vanity-driven quest to find the perfect...
