I have only started using clinique within the last couple of years but so far i'm very happy with it and just starting to use the skincare rnages.

Make-up:
Superbalance foundation - medium coverage and feels amazing on my skin over a primer. Dewy finish where needed. Has light colour range that suits my pale skin.

Colour surge butter shine lipstick - if there is anyone out there who doesn't like lipstick because of the dry, dull thick look it gives. This is the lipstick for you. Its so smooth and skiny with out being tacky.

High definition mascara - i've tried a lot of mascaras but this is the only one i will repurchases because it makes mt eyelashes so noticeable and thick and long.

Skin care:
All about eyes - good, but i haven't seen any major results yet, but it feels nice on.

Liquid soap cleaner (mild) - good cleanser leaves your skin feel so clean and i love the way it kind of has bubbles instead of foaming.

I'm working on getting mor products, give me time.

I havent used Clinque since my teenage years but the two new products that Pcc bought do have my interest. The all about eyes rich and take the day off cleanser. Pcc, do let us know how you found them. Saw an ad for the new eye cream - impressive claims!

I have a lot of Clinique. The new skincare seems quite good. I used the 3 step for years when I was younger but found it didn't really suit my skin.

I could rave on for hours about all the clinique products I have had and tried but thought I would just list my current favourites for both skin care and make-up.

Skin Care

Moisture Surge Extra - Like a big glass of water for your skin. Can be applied over or under makeup or used as a mask. I give this ten out of ten, love it!

Total Turn Around Cream - An overnight treatment that exfoliates and refines the skin. Applied over the top or moisturisers and serums. You can now get the serum to use in replace of the cream but I prefer the cream.

Take The Day Off Balm - A wax like consistency that disolves every last trace of makeup. Also gentle enough to use on the eye's.

Take The Day Off Cleansing Milk - This is a brand new product. I used it for the frst time last night and was really impressed. Thoroughly removes makeup and leaves no residue.

Moisture Surge Eye Gel - Put this over the top of your eye cream or use alone. This is fabulous and is like a big drink of water for dehydrated eyes.

7 Day Scrub - My favourite basic scrub ever! Gentle enough to use every day and makes skin so soft!

Sparkle skin - One of the best body exfoliants I have ever used. It massages into skin easily and skin feels baby soft after use.

Deep Comfort Body Butter - Rich and decadent. A little goes a long way and it comes in a very large tub!

Water Therapy Body Cream - Easily absorbed by the skin, easy to apply and is a creamy texture as opposed to the butter.

Water Therapy Hand Cream - One of my favourite hand creams. You wouldn't believe how this baby hydrates. Absorbes quickly.


Makeup

Colour Surge Eye Shadows - Beautiful colours that blend easily. Very reasonably priced and come in a variety of finishes.

Stary Plum Eyeliner - A beautiful plum colour that really makes my eyes pop.

Perfectly Real Foundation - A nice medium coverage foundation that balances my oily t-zone and slightly dry cheeks.

Will add more later as things come to mind!

Mate, don't get me started on Clinique. As PCC and LB know I LOVE it, by gum!

The liquid soaps are lovely and very convenient with the pump bottles. I've been using the foaming facial cleanser for years - great for taking makeup off. Also really like the Dramatically Different Moisturising Gel (as opposed to cream/lotion) and it's particularly good for summer.

Still aquainting myself with their makeup but the eyeshadows have a beautiful, velvety texture and the Impossibly Glossy lip glosses are great.

Would be keen to hear more Clinique makeup reviews PCC if they come to mind...

i have been very impressed with the few clinique products i have tried, and intend to try some more!

i have tried:

dramatically different moisturising lotion - i was warned that this moisturiser would be too rich for my oily skin, but i actually found it to suit me quite well when used sparingly in oily t-zone areas!

7 day scrub - i did enjoy this exfoliator. it is my second fave (after dermalogica skin prep scrub). it find it to be a bit more harsh than the skin prep scrub, but it is still good.

superbalm lip treatment - probably my favourite lip product ever. very nice and moisturising on the lips, protecting them all day!

quickliner for eyes - i have it in blue/grey which i must say is a beautiful and unique colour. ive not seen another like it.

long last soft shine lipstick in creamy nude - this is the best colour lipstick ever.

high impact mascara - pretty good stuff!

After using the no. 2 toner for a few weeks now, I refuse to live without it :redcheeks: . It has done wonders for my skin, not only keeping my pimple prone chin in check , but has given my whole face a brighter kinda glow to it (does that make sense?). I also use the Clinique foaming cleanser to remove make up before cleansing my skin and it gently removes my make up without stripping my skin bare, and does a thorough job I have to say!

Bjp, (I seem to be chasing you around this forum!!). Allison will need to know that this is a fairly new product for you and judge how it intereacts with the Ultraceuticals you are using too. You know what they say about too much of a good thing....

LOL! Chase away, this is fun! Okay, will 'fess up about this one too :redcheeks:

I'm not the hugest fan of Clinique skincare, but damn I am all about Clinique makeup. I love it because it's just so WEARABLE. The colour surge eyeshadows are beautifully pigmented and have just a tiny amount of shimmer so they don't look flat. The colours are great too, most of them work well with my skin tones. Superbalanced and Skin Smoother are both great foundations for my combo skin. The airbrush concealer is my current undereye concealer and it's doing a great job. I love High Impact mascara (but I'm more inclined to buy cheap mascaras and chuck them out every month or so), it does indeed give a lot of length to the lashes. Clinique Blushing Blush powder blushes are pretty much the only blush I wear (apart from a couple of L'Oreal ones), because the colours are wearable and, well, I just love em. My favourite colours are Mocha Pink and Honey Blush (although last time i was at the clinique counter I had the impending sense of dread that they'd both been discontinued).

This is of course on top of one of my favourite beauty products of all time, Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey. If you're a brunette and have never worn this, you're mad.

Oh oh and of course the superbalms.

i also love super balanced make up & the oil free pressed powder, though this airbrush concealer sounds bloody great

ohh clinique have launched an online store now too

www.clinique.com.au

I've only just started buying Clinique makeup and I do like what I have; a couple of powder eyeshadow duos (blackberry/lilac and cocoa frost); texture is very nice. Also happy with the High Impact Mascara (got a freebie and thinking about buying the full-size - live a little, I say!) and the Glosswear For Lips range is great. Not into the foundations, but have pals who swear by Superbalanced.

I am such a Clinique virgin! Had tried their skin care years ago and didnt like it (apart from Moisture Surge, thanks PCC!). Have never had any of their make up before! Keep hearing about that lipgloss Ozkat, might take the plunge one day although they have a new gloss with the word Butter in it (??) which looks good too, I am a corally kinda girl. Have also heard good things about the colour surge eyeshadows. They have a new mosaic blush which looks cool too. I have always walked straight past this counter but maybe I'll have a closer look next time!

Is that the blush with the peony imprint? So pretty! I want!

Saw that one in a mag, no this one is like the Napolean but in a rectangular shape. Looks fairly bright but very eyecatching!

Speaking of stuff in mags I noticed the new Almay ads are very much like the Clinique ones (which have won awards); that close-up stacked product kind of thang. Wonder if Almay is revamping its image a bit? Especially with the new 'bring out the (colour)" eye products.

Was having a flick through April US Marie Claire and saw a new Almay ad for a "smart shade makeup". Only comes in light, light/med and med and apparently is shade-sensing that starts out white and adjusts to your skin tone! It is hypoallergenic, has antioxidents and aloe and an SPF of 15. Yes, their ads are becoming more slick.

Doubt this will be out for a while but check it out at www.almay.com/smartshade

PS sorry to bump Clinique!

love clinique makeup more than their skincare - the 3 step program didnt do much for me.

have mentioned a few times i love the superfit foundation, and i LOVE the glossy mascara (although its not waterproof and smudges easily)

I know I said Clinique skincare didn't do it for me, but I do use All About Eyes every day and I lurve it.

Anyone try the new All About Eyes Rich? PCC?

Yep, I've tried it. Serious moisturising properties but a bit too rich for my needs. Hey, at least they warned me!

PCC will likely have a much better evaluation though...

I tried it from a sample Luisa (sample was great too, lasted over a week) and it was very nice, a bit too rich for my needs but it would be lovely for an older skin or a colder climate.

:typing: Has anyone tried the volumising mascara (I forgot what its called) ? I'm trying to use up the ones I have at the moment, but want to try the volumising one from clinique next! I've heard so many good reviews about their mascaras~~~!

hello you may have mentioned this earlier in the thread.. but has anyone tried the Colour Surge Butter Shine Lip Sticks?

Serena Clinique's Long Pretty Lashes used to be my staple mascara, it's definitely a fantastic one. It really does make your lashes long and pretty.

Alison - I used a Colour Surge Butter Shine of my Mum's a couple of times, the texture and pigmentation was really nice.

Hi Clinique fans, it's gift time at DJs again. When you spend $60 or more on Clinique products you get a 10-piece bonus. Not sure what's in it (very unhelpful, sorry) but I never say no to free stuff! :clapping:

I saw an ad for it today and wanted it immediately!! That lipstick colour looks gorgeous and the products are all good. Too bad there's no DJs where I live. :(

Anyone try the new All About Eyes Rich? PCC?

I have some samples of it Luisa, I will send one in your direction. I found it upset my rather sensitive eyes. Made them run and were very puffy the next morning.

Hey thanks PCC! I will put aside til eye infection clears up though! I had an eyelash grow back on itself in the corner of my eye and it is very sore and infected. Prescription eye drope (you know the ones you can taste about 10mins later:vomit: ), eye ointment and antihistamines. Feeling on top of the world - not!

Geeze!! You are having a rough time of it Miss Fendi. Hate anything being wrong with the eyes. Hate eye drops and can't stand the awful ones you can taste! Hope it clears up fast!

Thanks PCC, looking better though you should have seen it this morning, the size of a golf ball!

What is it with eyes lately?!! Mine haven't been right since I started using Dermalogica (have subsequently stopped) and they're still a bit sensitive. My mum has an eye infection and yesterday two acquaintances had sore runny eyes! Something must be in the air....

I've been using the Clinique All About Eyes Rich for 2 months now.. Honestly speaking, when I first used it, same with you PCC made my eyes very puffy the next morning and found my left eye had swollen! :shockedhair: :tears: really upsetting.. and stop it for 1 week.. then go back again.. (with no reactions.. thanks!) I will just finished this eye cream and will try the Dermadoctor eye cream.. I hope Dermadoctor is ok for my sensitive eyes...
;)

Hi Ness,
My eyes are quite sensitive to all eye creams. I don't know what it is but even if they are for sensitive eyes my eyes still seem to react. The only one that I don't react to is Dermalogica's multivitamin Power Firm. I am going to get the Dermadoctor wrinkle revenge too I think.

Hi PCC!:waving: I am very keen to try the Dermadoctor wrinkle revenge eye cream after I finished Clinique All About Eyes Rich. If you are going to try the Dermadoctor one please let me/us know how you go... I too have very sensitive eyes.. I hope Dermadoctor is the one that I am lookfing for! :shockedhair: I think I might try the Dermalogica Power Firm..:redcheeks:

Ness this one should be fine for you. I also have very sensitive eyes and found the Dermadoctor one soothing and effective. Do a search for "dermadoctor" as we have written about this one several times.

Many thanks Luisa! If you suggest Dermadoctor then definitely I'll try it! :hearts: I think I'll :yellow: buy the eye cream next week...

This is of course on top of one of my favourite beauty products of all time, Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey. If you're a brunette and have never worn this, you're mad.
Thanks for the tip. I checked it out today & after trying it out I had to have it. I love it!! :hearts: Such a wearable colour that just enhances my natural lip shade.
I also got the make up remover - Take the Day off. Thanx to PCC. Fingers crossed it will be ok for my sensitive eyes.
Yes I got the GWP & it looks great. Dunno about the dodgy cosmetic bags though? So cheap & nasty.

Yay Medusa! I hope you love it as much as I do. Whenever I put it on I think "why don't I wear this every day?". I'd be interested to know whether it looks more plummy or terracotta on you. I have heard reviews that go both ways. On me, it's definitely more bricky, and I wear it with a peach blush. It looks wrong on me if worn with pink blush. But I have heard it described as a berry or plummy colour, so it obviously goes both ways depending on your colouring. It also has a pretty crappy staying power on me :( but oh well. It's gorgeous.

I think you can alter the colour a little with a lip liner underneath. The one I had on today had a pink base (Jemma Kidd's neutral dual liner with Stila Becky lippy). I'd say a true nude liner would do the trick. The colour reminds me a little of the IZ Lip & Cheek Stain.

Edit: Used the make up remover & no sting! :clapping: Very effective too. Yay! :glee:

HI guys I noticed a lot of you love Clinique here in the forum. Rather than hijacking another thread I thought I would discuss it further here. I was the biggest Clinique Junkie when my good friend was the counter manager of Clinique in Hobart but then she left and I didn't seem to spend as much time at Clinique.

However the pharmacy I do a bit of market research for has a Clinque counter and I have started to get quite a few test products again. I am not a fan of Clinique skin care as it just isn't for me although I have it all in bucket loads from when I was a fan. On the other hand I love Clinique Makeup. From time to time I get a heap of samples I don't use or want (this includes makeup) so I will post here and if any of you want them I will gladly pass them on!

That is so nice of you PCC, the CLinique skincare really does suit my skin and it hsa taken me along time to find this out. Your so generous to do that. Count me in , i can't wait to see what you have that you don't want. I'm so excited because i've recently bought a house and the repayments are a little high so i've been skimping my clinique products and not buy everything i want.:glee::glee::glee::glee::glee:

Yep I agree so nice of you PC! So lucky to get all these freebies! Would love any rejects haha I love samples and if it turns out to suit me then woo-hoo! Yep poor student if you cant already tell :clapping:

Count me in three!! (but you already know that PCC!! :chuckle: )

I love Clinique:glee:It was the first product that really made a difference to my skin when I was a teenager.I am so pleased to see so many great additions to their range it's really triple what they used to have:glee:
Has anybody tried the Body Spray for acne
Diana was a well known user of Clinique Make Up I especially love the lip glosses

7 day scrub - was the first high end scrub I ever used, lasts forever, not bad, use a little and you'll get a great result! good for sensitive skin

mild facial soap - lasts forever & not bad if you like super clean skin! ... probably the only commerical/beauty counter cleanser I'd consider using these days... both my mum and I like this although she prefers the liquid version. its a no fuss cleanser, great if your not much of a makeup user like me and just require gentle yet thorough non drying cleansing.

I've tried a couple of the mascaras - alright, great for sensitive eyes.

Lipgloss/lippy/balm - great colours, non sticky, not bad for price either, last forever. All I use pretty much for lip products.

Eyeliner, I think stary plum quickliner is great!

GWP - eyeshadows fave's are Lucky penny and strawberry fudge.

I've used other products like the complete 3 step; eye treatments and other spealist skincare but none that I was really impressed with. However Clinique is a good brand that shouldn't be dismissed purely by their trademark 3 step... Afterall my HG perfume is Clinique Aromatics, divine!

I just tried Clinique last week for the 1st time...and I was pretty disappointed...
I got some samples of the Dramatically Different Lotion (for combination/oily skin) and I've found that it still clogs up my pores.
I love the ladies at the counter though! They're soooo helpful and really seem to know what they're talking about, so I would definitely consider Clinique for other products.

Hi a.gasper, welcome! :waving:

The lotion would have been too heavy for your skin type. If you like Clinique you could try the Dramatically Different Moisturising Gel. I have oily/combo skin and this stuff is great.

Thanks for the welcome raspberryberet (incidently I was watching the video clip for that song yesterday lol) it's great to be able to talk about this stuff with people who are as into beauty products as I am (none of my friends are...they all think I'm a bit of a freak!)

I just went and checked the cabinet, and it was the gel that I was trying that was clogging up my pores...maybe I'll have a go of the one for oily skin...I was also thinking of trying out the Pore Minimiser Refining Lotion (or anything else in that range)...have you tried that before?? What did you think about it?

Oh right - dagnabit, eh? How long had you been using it for? Sometimes it can take your skin a couple of weeks to adjust to a new routine. But I know what you mean, if a product doesn't feel right, it doesn't feel right!

I've only used the Pore Refining Scrub in the Clinique range, and it was pretty good.

Perhaps you could try something with active ingredients in it ie. AHAs/BHAs? These will help keep your skin exfoliated. Could be worth posting something in the 'Ask Allison' section to see if she has any reccs for you.

Moisturisers that have worked for me are:
+ md skincare - using this at the mo: http://www.meccacosmetica.com.au/product-detail.aspx?productID=2776&b=46
+ Dermalogica Active Moist (very, very light): http://www.adorebeauty.com.au/adorebeauty/viewitem.asp?idproduct=9631
+ Dermalogica Oil Control Lotion (soothing so good if you're prone to breakouts): http://www.adorebeauty.com.au/adorebeauty/viewitem.asp?idproduct=9628
+ Ultraceuticals Ultra Hydrating Gel (exxy but very nice): http://www.adorebeauty.com.au/adorebeauty/viewitem.asp?idproduct=4976

And I'm keen to get my hands on something from the Mario Badescu line, which has many products targeted at oily/acne-prone skin. Here's the MB website if you're interested: http://www.mariobadescu.com/products.asp

....and it's stocked here in Australia at Kit stores:
http://www.kitcosmetics.com/products/mario-badescu

Hope that helps! I'm always on the hunt for my Holy Grail Moisturiser, so let me know if you find a good one!

I was only using the Clinique for about a week (I'm on the hunt for a new moisturiser because my Neutrogena Oil Free Lotion has started to fail me) so you're probably right...if I use it for longer my skin may calm down...I've heard a lot about Ultraceuticals and Dermalogica so I'm going to try and hit up my local DJ's for some samples to try out before a spend on them (they'll probably be the most I've ever spent on skin care). I've also heard some good comments on Aesop so I might check out the Mandarin cream
I'll definitely keep you posted when I find something...which will hopefully be in the next week as my skin is not very happy jan at the moment lol

Yeah, samples definitely the way to go. Understand what you mean about the $$$ factor. Good luck!

PS forgot to mention Alpha-h:
http://www.adorebeauty.com.au/adorebeauty/brand.asp?id=18&on=suppliers

Might be worth considering too. Sorry to flood you with options, but I figure it's good to have more to choose from rather than less! xo

I gave one of my friends a whole heap of my un used clinique (and other brands too )stuff, instead of giving it to my mum as I normally do.... (I want my mum to change products as well, mum is quite keen to give natural alternatives a go!)....

I bought the clinique lash primer today and just tried it out, and I have to say its pretty gooood! I can notice it lengthening my lashes straight away and just feel gentle if that makes sense. Doesnt clump the lashes or makes them stif, which is the problem I had with my mac primer. Im happy with it anyways :penguin:

Sounds good S, yeah, I'm ditching my M.A.C one too for that reason.

I am a fan of Clinique's Take The Day Off make remover as it gets the job done and is easy on my eyes. Highly rec this one if you have sensitive eyes.

I also have the cult lipstick - Black Honey. This is a great colour but as it is a sheer it doesn't last very long on. Love the packaging but the longeviety is a bit disappointing.

High Impact mascara is a goodun. It lengthens well and is really black. No problem with smudging or fallout.

My lastest purchase is a Cream Shaper (eyeliner) I got a dual one in Chocolate Luster & Cream Luster. These are very soft to apply, like a crayon. The lusters have a shimmer. I am seriously impressed by how well they stay on. They will smudge if you want them to on application but once they set, that's it. It does not budge all day. No wiping away eyeliner from under your eye throughout the day, just apply & go. :clapping:

M I have a real problem with removing my eye makeup at night,everything stings cos I always manage to get some in my eye of course!! You said the Take The Day Off is easy on your eyes,is that what you meant?? that it doesn't sting? oh please say this is the product I'm looking for!!

Has anyone purchased the new Long wearing lipgloss??? If so, can you describe the colour that you purchased because i really want one but i want to order online because i won't be getting into a counter for ages.

Thanks :hugs:

Yes do try. I have that problem also. Many of them sting my eyes or make them water profusly. PCC rec this one to me and I love it. It is a 2 phase one that you need to shake before using and the lid was a little tricky (like a medicine bottle) but you get the hang of it. They have a great little pack out at the moment that I got the other week. $36 for a mini bottle of Take the Day off, a full size High Impact mascara and a dual cream shaper (eyeliner). Very good value IMO.

If you are very sensitive I would also rec using Grapeseed oil as an eye make up remover. You get it in the supermarket next to the olive oil, very cheap. Just wet the cotton pad before for ease of use. Grapeseed oil is also great as a facial oil as it contains natural anti oxidants.

I recently got a mini one via a voucher. The only colour they had was 03 Knockout Nude. Looks like a shimmery brown in the tube. Goes on pretty nude & is glossy more so from the shimmer. Is a little tacky but comfortable.

Oh i don't like that tacky feeling. I can't wear nude glosses because my lips have nealry no natural colour to them so it just makes me look sick and ghostly.

Did you get the voucher out of the shopt til you drop???

Yeah I think so. Have you got a counter near you?

Thanks so much M I'm much happier to try a product that someone else is happy with.The grapeseed oil sounds interesting,might have to get that and see.Thanks again:hugs:

If you don't like the Grapeseed oil you can always use it as salad dressing :chuckle:

The nearest counter is an hour away, so no not really. Unfortunately, never mind.

If anyone wants but can't find the cult Clinque lipstick - Black Honey then try Bloom's Lip Tint in Berry. I swear it is the same! The colour, texture, finish even the packaging is pretty much it.

I loved Black Honey! But it's so hard to fine (in Tassie anyway!). Thanks M :clapping:
