Clinique Even Better Makeup SPF 15 Reviews

A great foundation with good coverage. Quite pricey though and did have to cut the bottle open to get out the last tenth of the product as the bottle is very rigid!

I heard a lot of hype around this product from a Youtuber, who has combination skin - more on the oily side. However, I have combination skin - more on the dry side. I brought this product anyway as I was on the lookout for a lighter everyday foundation that still had great coverage. I apply the foundation with a damp beauty blender. At first this foundation really does provide great coverage that still appears light and as your own skin. It smooths pores and doesn't accentuate texture. However, while this foundation looks great on certain areas of my skin, it really clings onto dryness. Around my nose and chin, it appears cakey and was breaks up. Throughout the day it appears worse and settles into lines, exaggerating dryness even more. I would say it is worth trying if you have oily skin, but I would not recommend even better for dry skin.

Clinique have such great products, I'm a huge fan of their skincare range as well as their makeup. I currently use their three step skincare range and have many of their foundations.

This foundation i've used on and off for years, changing between L'oreal true match and Revlon colorstay. I started using it again recently when I saw a woman post a selfie of her makeup using this, her foundation looked absolutely flawless! The coverage was perfect and her skin looked radiant. After seeing this I asked myself why I changed foundations in the first place!?!

So, for the last week I've been back using this, and now I know why I continuously go back to this foundation! The packaging is stylish and typically Clinique . I like that it's in a plastic bottle, so not breakable like other foundation bottles that are made of glass.

The colour match is perfect for me, 3-ivory. I apply it with a brush and the colour just blends so well with my skin tone. The coverage is buildable and gives a medium coverage. It hides imperfections and pimples well. What I love about this is the natural, yet slightly dewy finish.

My skin tends to be quite dry and I found Revlon colorstay used to sometimes sink into the little fine lines that I have appearing - this foundation makes them less noticeable, being a slightly dewy foundation compared to a matte finish.

This foundation really gives me a lovely, luminous glow. This foundation just feels so lightweight, and I forget I'm wearing anything.

My skin is sensitive and tends to react to some products, but I've never with this product. I like that it has an SPF included, so I don't have to worry about putting additional sunscreen on.

This foundation is definitely my holy grail, it makes my skin look so healthy and radiant - I'm in love!

I passed the Clinique counter in mg local mall and the assistant asked if I would like to try. I am always keen to try new things so we had a bit of a chat about my skin and then she gave me a sample.

I used the sample for a few days with such good results I bought the product which at the time there was buy one, get one free.

The bottle is a bit plain, not too flash really with a silver colour lid which twists off. The make up is easy to apply and goes on nice and evenly.

It is quite a light overage which I find good for day wear but I use another make up for evening wear as I prefer more coverage. I love that it has an spf in it. It will stay in place for the day and is very easy to remove in the evening.

I got a sample of this and I'm impressed how long it has lasted me I've been using this several times a a week for the better part of a month and I still have quite a few uses left. Find this foundation blends really well, gives a natural finish, doesn't look cakey or streaky and has a reasonable wear time. I've used this when I've had oily skin and it wore well but when I had dry skin it didn't went on smoothly. It's a good foundation and the price is reasonable. Now I didn't give it more because of the skin care claims. I like that it has spf but I don't think this foundation can replace skincare or that did help to improve my skin over time. I still have the same sunspots I had when I started using this and this only helps to give my skin a more even skin tone temporarily. I still have to use a concealer over my blemishes, under eye circles and sunspots or just let them peek through. This foundation is medium to light coverage so I expect I'll have to use a concealer for more coverage. But the main reason I'm not going to repurchase this once I use up the sample is that while I can make the shade I have work at nighttime, especially once I've done a full face, I want something that matches my skintone better and isn't too light or dark or too pink, which is the problem with the shade I have. Unfortunately, it was the best match the lady at the counter could find for me. But if you can find a perfect match in this range and want a good medium coverage foundation this is a good option.

I'm a big fan of Clinique's products and previously used Clinique's Anti-Blemish foundation before switching loyalties to MAC. Recently I wanted something that colour-matched my skin better and was recommended to try Even Better by a Clinique consultant.

I have oily-combination skin which can be acne-prone although I have less concerns with breakouts now than scarring and pigmentation. I am currently using this in shade 3 - Cream Chamois, which works well on my light-medium skin. Clinique really has a great range of colours available for this foundation which I like as my skin is quite neutral-toned leaning towards warm, and this doesn't pull too pink or yellow.

The packaging of the foundation is a plastic squeeze bottle with quite a large lid. I like how secure the lid is so that you know it won't pop open in a bag. The nozzle of the bottle is also quite small which is great as it allowed me to easily regulate how much product I was dispensing.

I apply this after primer using a kabuki foundation brush to stipple and buff it into my skin. The formula has a lightweight consistency without feeling watery and provides medium coverage which is buildable if you do have areas that need a little more help. The finish is quite dewy which if you had very oily skin you may not like but as I set my foundation with powder and finishing spray, I find the finish of this helps keep my foundation from looking flat and ends up quite natural-looking.

In terms of wearability I find I get at least six hours before I notice the shine wearing through and longer before it gets a little patchy, but nothing a little touch-up won't fix. I haven't noticed any specific changes in the darkness of spots but I've only been using it a month or so. In that time I have managed to convince a beauty therapist friend of mine to switch to it as I like it so much! I've already stocked up on a couple of bottles of this duty free and will continue to purchase it.

I used the full range of clinique for a number of years and absolutely loved it. Whilst it is a little bit more expensive than many products, it has been designed for sensitive skin so it is much more gentle than others. I loved the coverage it gave me - not too light, and not too heavy. It is easy to apply and blend and comes in a large range of colours. The ladies at the clinique counter are always very very helpful and know their stuff so it makes purchasing from them an absolute pleasure. I haven't used this product for nearly two years now, as during pregnancy I reacted to almost everything, so had to reduce the amount of products on my face. Following my pregnancy I went to use it again and it had almost split as it was so old. I really must try it again and see how my skin copes!

I really like this foundation for every day at work wear. I have pigmentation on my cheeks and forehead so I really love that this foundation has ingredients in it that help to fade the pigmentation as well as conceal it.

It's a wonderful 3 in 1 product (foundation, pigmentation treatment and SPF 15 sun protection). I'm time poor in the mornings so am always a fan of multi-tasking products.

It gives a nice medium coverage and makes my skin look healthy and sort of dewy (but not shiny). I prefer having good coverage because of my pigmentation but I really don't like looking like I'm wearing a mask of foundation and this foundation still lets my skin show through so it's not at all mask-like (unless, of course, you apply a lot).I do wear it with a Clinique cc cream (some days) and a setting powder (every day) and sure, it doesn't stay perfect all day but I'm working on finding a new powder to help with this, because I do really love the way this looks when I first apply it. I did find it lasted longer when I used it with my Dr Hauschka setting powder as opposed to my Revlon one, and I wonder if it would last even longer with a Clinique setting powder.

I love the squeeze tube bottle, which is very hygienic and easy to get out of the bottle. The size of the bottle makes it a breeze to travel with, and I think it would probably last 5 months comfortably. Id buy this again.

I really enjoy using this foundation! I have used a number of Clinque foundations over the years and this is one of my favourites and I have repurchased quite a few times now.

I have dry skin and this foundation has a light-med coverage with a dewy finish (not sparkly) so I like how it feels on my dry skin. It doesn’t cling to dry patches or crease up during the day.

It is easy to blend and buildable but I cant say it ever gets to full coverage. It doesn’t look cakey or ‘flat’ which is a look I really like to avoid. I find my skin sort of shows through and it gives a lovely luminosity.

I find Clinque has a pretty good colour selection. They seem to quite neutral – not too pink or yellow so it works perfectly with my skin tone. My only gripe with this foundation is the lasting power isn’t as good as other foundations. I imagine you could help this by using primer and powdering but I hate the way powder sits on my face so I just roll with it.
