The Logistics:
The line comes with 4 different types: Type 1 - Very dry to dry. Type 2 - Dry combination (this is the one I have). Type 3 - Combination Oily. Type 4 - Oily. They also have a line for men's and acne prone skin.
- Liquid Facial Soap - You get 6.7 fl oz or 200 ml. The product comes with a pump which turns to close it (you can't push it down to dispense product).
- Clarifying Lotion - You get 16.5 fl oz or 487 ml. The product, I think, comes with a pump but i'm still not sure how to use it.
- Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion + - You get 4.2 fl oz or 125ml. The product comes with a pump but you can also buy it without a pump (still the same price)
It's Claims (I got this straight from Clinique's Website):
- Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion - Dermatologist-developed formula combines all-day hydration with skin-strengthening ingredients to help skin look younger, longer. Helps strengthen skin's own moisture barrier by 54%, so more moisture stays in.
- Liquid Facial Soap - Our guiding dermatologists believe in simple, effective cleansing: soap and water. Soft, non-drying lather cleans gently, rinses easily. Helps remove the stress of pollution so skin looks younger, longer. In 3 skin-typed formulas. Protects skin's natural moisture balance so there's no taut or dry feeling.
- Clarifying Lotion - Dermatologist-developed formula helps reveal fresher skin. Sweeps away dulling flakes so moisturizer can do its job better. Helps fine dry lines disappear.
My Thoughts:
- Dramatically Different moisturizing Lotion - it is good. The consistency of it is thinner and more watery than I expected. It goes on really light weight and not heavy. However it does give moisture, quite a bit of it. I use one pump and that does my entire face and my neck. It is perfect for the summer months where you are sweating and you don't want your moisturizer to feel heavy. Overall the product is great and the price is reasonable for the amount of product you get.
- Liquid Facial Soap - is okay. It foams up a lot. A little does go a long way. I found out that using one whole pump is way too much for my face, and sometimes the foam gets into my mouth and nose. I just didn't see or feel a difference while using this. I feel like any cleanser would do. It is very light and it's great for sensitive skin. The pump does lock so if you want to travel it won't spill everywhere.
- Clarifying Lotion - by far my favorite. It is something I definitely will repurchase. I take a cotton round and dump the bottle upside down then back up really quick. A little goes a very long way and for the price and the amount you get is a total steal. The product does sting a little at first, but that is normal. I have noticed that the flakes around my nose have disappeared (the moisturizer may have helped). So overall it does "sweep away dulling flakes so moisturizer can do a better job". Worth every penny, definitely would recommend.
Overall my thoughts on the line is a positive one. The line is not too expensive, obviously more than a drugstore version, but not as much as higher end skin care products. The price is definitely a steal for how the product have been working. I have gotten no breakouts or reactions. I think if you have sensitive skin the Clarifying lotion might be too harsh, but everything else will work great.
