Clinique

Yesterday I got a postcard thing through the post from boots saying that if you buy any 2 products (1 being skin care) from the clinique counter you could get a bag of summery freebies, I was all set to rush down there yesterday cos I love freebies but then I noticed it didnt start untill today. I sent my mum down today to get me the full size versions of the face wash and clarifying lotion that I got in the 3 step routine with my dramatically different moisturizing lotion. I used these for about 2 weeks and my skin was really clear and I had been meaning to buy them so this seemed the perfect time.


The liquid facial soap (left) in extra mild was £13, and a Huge 400ml clarifying lotion was £23, was quite shocked at the size really. so I spent £36 and got...



This pretty drawstring bag with testers of:

  • dramitically different moisturizing lotion (which I use all the time anyway and love!)
  • 7 day scrub cream
  • self sun body daily moisturizer in light /medium
  • tiny tube of lash power mascara in black onyx
  • mini long lasting glosswear spf 15 in 14 cabanna crush (really pretty pink)
  • and a small almost bronzer spf 15 in light medium (I like the look of this, looks like it might be just the right shade for me!)
  • and a mini clinique brush for the bronzer,

So got quite alot really, so if anyone else is looking at buying any more than 1 clinique product before the end of auugust get down to boots and get these freebies with them!

OOOh this is cool!!! I wish they did this stuff here in italy as well!!!

So have you been using the 3 steps treatment?!

I'm tempted to buy the "samples" set to try it...would you recommend it to someone who normally has a combination skin, but is now experiencing a lot of dryness from sea water, but still has some bad occasional breakouts?

(that's a lot, I know) aahhah just don't wanna waste my money!

@Lyd: I think it should work for you, I have only tried the ones for dry to very dry skin but there are 4 different types you can buy such as for oily skin or combination, I do love this stuff though, definatly made me skin feel alot better so definatly worth a try if you can get hold of the samples :)

Clinique's Dramatically different moisturizer is not what I expected at all! It left my skin blotchy in some areas and oily on my T-zone! I also got a small sample from Clinique, which I'm not longer using and won't be buying in the near future. What do you think?

@Limegreen118: I really like it but I have incredibly dry skin and get eczema alot so maybe thats why it works for me, have been using it about 5, 6 months now and had no problems, I use the lotion version, is that what you have? xx
