Is Clinique good for skincare products, or what’s better?
I’m thinking of buying the 3 step Clinique skincare things (cleanser toner moisturiser) and just wanted to know if it’s good? I have combination skin with a fairly uneven skin tone so I want to fix this. Should I get Clinique or is there something better? Thanks.
I have combination skin and I cannot say enough good things about Clinique products – I’ve been using them since I was about 14 (I’m 25 now) and I really think they’re the best thing out there.
The coolest thing is that, when you go to the Clinique counter, they will customize the products based on your skin type. They have different “strengths” of soap, toner, and moisturizer to balance different levels of oiliness and dryness in your skin. They’ll ask you a few questions about your skin and put together a skincare set.
I prefer the liquid cleanser to the bar, because I think it rinses cleaner. I use the moisturizing gel in the summer when my skin is oilier and the lotion in the winter when it’s drier.
Clinique also has great acne treatments, which I used when I had awful teenage skin.
You can actually take the little quiz about your skin type on their website, to see what kind of products they recommend:

My only caveat about Clinique is that they can be expensive, but for me it’s worth it. I get the best results for my skin with their products.
