Clinique Liquid Facial Soap

I loved it... at first.

I bought the three step skin cleansing system (mild liquid soap, clarifying lotion, and moisturizing lotion), along with the foaming makeup remover and began to use it on my face. At first, I loved the results. The minor acne I had struggled with on my cheeks for months disappeared and using the system as directed make my skin glowing and soft. I thought I was in love. About a two weeks into using the products, I began to develop white bumps along the sides of my mouth (in my smile lines). I had never seen anything like this and I hoped they would go away. After a week of developing more, they daily began to developed into painful zits and whiteheads. Shortly afterwards, I noticed the white bumps were spreading to my forehead, and I quit using the system, worried it would spread all over my face. This is a good product if it works for you skin, but beware! Don't spend a lot of money on a well known brand and think it'll work for you like it everyone else. Like me, you might be sorely mistaken.

Clinique Blended Face Powder and Brush

It's good

I do have some oil in my t-zone, and this product keep my face shine free all day long. It is a finer powder, almost like baby powder, and looks very natural. I sometimes use it without foundation and feel that it makes my small pores almost invisible. I'm not too crazy about the matte finish, but that is what it made to do and the powder does it's job!
