Favourite moisturiser by far!

As an oily-skinned girl, moisturiser can very easily become a nightmare for me, turning hydration to an oil slick mess. Clinique's Anti-Blemish Solutions Clearing Moisturizer is my all-time favourite moisturiser for hydrated, blemish-free skin.

The product claims to be fragrance-free and may not have any added fragrance but I found it to be lightly scented, barely noticeable. I apply it morning and night after any serums or treatments as the final step in my skincare routine. The formula is a lightweight lotion which absorbs easily into the skin leaving it feeling soft and supple without a grease-slick in sight! It's also light enough to apply over serums without gaining that heavy feel I've received when I apply both on my skin.

The packaging is also another win for Clinique. I think the aqua and white colour-scheme is so eye-catching but simple, and I love the upside-down squeeze bottle which makes it easier to get every drop out. This is by far the best-performing moisturiser I have ever tried and I have noticed that when I use it in combination with Clinique's 3-step Anti-Blemish system my skin just looks and feels better, plus points for it's oil control. I've never experienced any negative sides to it such as dryness or peeling that was mentioned.

I strongly recommend this product to any girl with oily, combo or normal skin who is after a medicated moisturiser.

Tips: This doesn't contain SPF so if wearing in the day be sure to apply additional SPF on top.

My favourite of the 3 step system

I was not impressed by the cleansing bar and the anti-blemish lotion that I received in the sample along with this moisturiser. Not only did they not live up their claims but it seemed to make my skin worse! This moisturiser though, is my favourite product of the series. It is light and silky, and just glides onto the skin really easily. Due to this feel, it also acts as a primer underneath makeup.

It is definitely a light moisturiser - that would only work for me in summer and I have oily/combo, acne prone skin. It also seemed to soothe my skin and make it less red and inflammed, as well as controlling my oiliness but in terms of preventing blemishes and acne, it didn't really do much for me.

I think this is a decent everyday moisturiser, probably not heavy enough for winter, but it didn't do much in terms of blemishes which is the real concern for me, so I wouldn't repurchase this.

Tips: Use a small amount as a little goes a long way!

Favourite of the range

I liked the moisturiser the best of the 3-step range. It felt the least chemically, it has a really soft and silky texture that absorbs quickly which I love. I use this range when I'm having bad skin days and it works well clearing up my pimples and reducing the oiliness. I would recommend using this as an everyday moisturiser for blemish prone skin.

Light, silky moisturiser, great benefits

I've used this for a year now and I absolutely love it.

I have oily (no combination about it) skin and am very blemish/blackhead prone. This is the only moisturiser I can use that absorbs instantly and doesn't make me fear over-nourishing my skin, enhancing my problems!

It does exactly what it says it's meant to. Plumps the skin, mattifies and helps clear my blemishes. Never leaves a residue on my skin, it absorbs straight in and feels lovely.

It has a slight witch-hazel or tea tree scent to it, which I quite like. Nothing overpowering, merely the natural ingredients coming through.

The packaging is okay. I feel like oily skin gals always end up with tubes of product instead of jars which can look cheap, but I get that this keeps it sterile for longer.

I've turned my closer friends to the anti-blemish range from Clinique and it's worked wonders for them as well. Never looking back from going to higher-end blemish treatment.

Tips: There is a "purge" phase when you first start these products which will TEMPORARILY make your skin worse. This does not last! It's just getting everything stuck in there out. You won't look back a week later!
