My experience with Clinique Face Wash: Clinique Liquid Facial Soap Oily Skin Formula

Packaging

It comes in a light green colored tube with a flip top cap. It is spill proof and definitely travel-friendly

Colour and texture

It is a clear liquid, that is not too runny or too creamy. It has just the right consistency, like a gel.

Fragrance

Thankfully, it is fragrance-free

Experience

I have used the Clinique chubby stick and Clinique moisture surge and liked it pretty much. Even though it is on the pricier side, the products are worth it and do what they claim to. All the products are dermatologically tested on specific skin. The best part is they have different skin care products for different skin types, from cleansers to toners to moisturizing lotions to foundation creams too. Voila..now, to the product. I have oily and dry skin, meaning combination skin. My t zones are oily and cheeks are dry. They dry out when I don’t moisturize well and off late, I have been experiencing breakouts on my cheeks, which is why I got my hands on this liquid facial soap. It has the right gel-like consistency and doesn’t give out much later, thereby preventing drying of the skin. It thoroughly cleanses the skin and is fragrance-free. Those who have a sensitive nose, read this. It keeps oil on the face at bay without excessively drying it. Of course, there are other brands and products in the market, which may yield same or similar results, but I found this product to be a good one. In all, if you are looking to invest in a good facial cleanser, this is the right one if you have combination skin.

Sure,but try a sample first to know how your skin reacts to it, before investing in this, since the amount is huge.

SLS- it is there in most of the products to provide lather, but yes, if that is something which doesn’t suit you, then dont take risk. if you are concerned, try a sample first , as i said, to know how this reacts on your skin
