Clinique Moisture Surge Overnight Mask Review

I received this in a gift pack (along with some other goodies that I've reviewed) and this was probably the best thing I got!

I have wicked dry skin, so I was chomping at the bit to try this.

I cleansed my face, used the Step 2 toner (yes, I use a toner!), and didn't moisturise, I just put this straight on.

The texture is quite thick, and my skin normally breaks out if the moisturiser is really thick, but it didn't with this and I was pleasantly surprised.

It doesn't have a strong fragrance at all, and when you rub it in to your skin, it just melts.

It leaves your skin feeling super supple, revived and very well hydrated.

I woke up the next morning and I didn't have to moisturise at all! I was amazed!!!

So I use this up to twice a week as part of my skincare routine now.

I've recently started using this mask that I got as part of a gift set. I thought it was amazing that a mask had been designed to be worn overnight. I applied it at the end of my nightly skin care routine, skipping the moisturiser, and using this mask.

It applies smoothly, and straight away feels moisturising. It is not a thick mask, it applies thinly, so you don't need to worry about leaving marks on your pillow.

When I took it off in the morning, it felt as though I had just had a facial. My skin was really soft, and I also noticed that my skin wasn't blotchy or red after removing it in the shower. It left my skin with a lovely glow as well.

I had never used an overnight mask until I tried this little gem from Clinique. I'm a huge fan of Clinique, so I was hoping for great things.

As with all iconic Clinique products, this is stylish and glamourous packaging for this mask. I love the look of Clinique, so high end and luxurious. It comes in a largish, pinkish tube, which is convenient and looks nice on my dresser top.

The formula is like a night cream, and it can easily can be smoothed over your face. It feels exactly like moisturiser and dries quickly. I use this mask after my cleansing routine and instead of my usual night cream. My skin feels instantly moisturised.

My skin can get quite dry in some places, especially in the winter. So, this is a great addition to my skincare routine.

After using this I wake up and my skin feels so hydrated and refreshed. It seems to even out my skin tone and give much needed moisture. My skin felt super soft and silky!

With an overnight mask I expected it to feel heavy and a little bit strange. But, this just felt like regular night cream, except giving me better results.

I'm really glad I tried this, and it is now a must in my skincare routine and will be using this a couple of times a week.

Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a hydrating mask for dry skin.

This cream is EXTRAORDINARY. I use this cream day and night, depending on my skins needs. Super hydrating, but if you use a small amount and really massage it into the skin, it's easily absorbed. For night-time use, I will apply liberally, tissue the excess off and sleep in it. You will find the skin is plump, radiant and hydrated when you wake up. Every time I use this cream, my face feels really soft and smooth. Very comparable to the Bobbi Brown Overnight Hydrating Mask, and the Origins Drink Up Intensive Mask.

I got a small sample sized tube of this. I have been into masks a lot lately. I have tried a handful of overnight masks and I love the idea of treating your skin overnight and waking up to nice smooth, hydrated and plumped out skin. The sample size comes in a small tube with silver top. It was pricey for the size but I wanted to try it anyways. Overnight masks feel like a night cream in texture but are supposed to work double duty on your skin while you get your beauty sleep. This one was slightly thicker in texture compared to my two other Asian overnight masks. But it didn't take long to absorb, although it did feel a tiny bit heavier than my Asian overnight masks, it was very light compared to my Origins Drink It Up Overnight Intensive Mask. The mask doesn't have a much of a scent but it does smell pleasant and gentle. The counter assistant told me to try using this twice a week or every other night. I use sleeping masks most nights so that's what I did. I only need a tiny bit as this spreads on nicely. The ingredients are water, glycerin, cetyl alcohol, dimethicone, glyceryl polymethacrylate, shea butter, cetyl ethylhexanoate, PEG-8, glycereth-26, sucrose, sorbitan stearate, PEG-100 stearate, trehalose, mango seed butter, hypnea musciformis (algae) extract, gellidiela acerosa (algae) extract, olive extract, wheat bran extract, cladosiphon okamuranus extract, astrocaryum murumuru Seed Butter, cetearyl alcohol, aloe vera leaf water, PEG-75, caffeine, pantethine, sorbitol, butylene glycol, oryzanol, bisabolol, panthenol, phytosterols, tocopheryl acetate, caprylyl glycol, sodium hyaluronate, hexylene glycol, carbomer, potassium hydroxide, dextrin, disodium EDTA, phenoxyethanol, CI 14700 and CI 19140. So although it claims to be oil-free there are butters and other oily things in there. That being said I don't know many of the ingredients in my Asian overnight masks so I can't really point my finger at the Clinique one. When I use this my skin is hydrated and plumped out the next day. However, I haven't seen this out perform my cheaper Asian sleeping masks. So I'm a bit on the fence as whether to shell out top dollar for a fullsized one or just go for something cheaper. But I will enjoy using this sample tube up.

I was lucky enough to get this as a bundle of Clinique products when ordering my favourite moisturiser from Nordstrom. Prior to getting it as part of a pack, I had never used (or heard) of this, so I wasn't sure what to expect.

My skin is dry so I was excited to give this a go to see if it helped at all. The idea of wearing a mask to bed weirded me out a little but after applying it I promptly forgot about it and was rewarded with plump, hydrated skin in the morning.

I use this whenever my skin is feeling particularly dry or if I have exfoliated that night. When used, this is the last stage in my skincare routine and I use it in place of moisturiser. The product is a white cream that feels absolutely luxurious on your skin. It blends in without needing to rub your face very much and doesn't feel heavy or uncomfortable on your skin.

In the mornings when I have used this, my skin looks and feels hydrated. It is like my skin has had an injection of youth in it while I slept and my skin feels super plump, hydrated and smooth - no dryness to be seen!

As you only need a small amount of this to cover your entire face (about the size of your pinky nail), this will last a long time. As I don't use it every night (maybe once a week), my tube is still really, really full - despite having this before Xmas.

Yes this is pricey... but if your skin is super dry and you haven't found anything that works for you, I highly recommend this. When my current tube is out I will definitely repurchase it - even though the price makes me want to gag haha.

I got this as a gift with purchase in a mini size initially but love it so much I purchased the full size. You don’t need to use an awful lot so it lasts a good 6 months for me using it 3-4 times a week. It leaves my skin so nicely hydrated I don’t feel like I need to use it every night but my skin is certainly happy if I do. A pea sized amount will do face and neck easily. It’s a fairly thick cream that spreads nice and easily without sitting greasy and heavy on the skin.

as stated, i got this in a past beauty vault. the words that sold me were moisture surge, as my lizard skin desperately needed something to keep it in line.

i love the pink bottle, its so girly and cute. the product is very smooth, almost like a silicone kind of cream, and its not quite clear but its not quite opaque either. its silky to apply and does so easily. it's very nice.

using it at anytime of the day, it felt really nice, but hours later i felt like my face had dried out again. i started using a toner after using this, and i also used it earlier in my routine and putting oils on top, but i just couldn't get the hydration that it claimed to give. i've since stopped using it as my face got fussy but i am going to give it another go to see if anything has changed for me.

it is a gorgeous product, and clearly works for some people, but at the moment i'm just not one of them.

This is an absolute winter essential for me. My skin can get extremely dry around my nose and on my cheeks, and this is the product that fixes it.

I use this after my usual moisturiser and serum, and will either apply it all over my face, or just around particularly dry areas. It sinks in pretty quickly despite the thicker texture and leaves my skin lovely and soft.

If you are not a fan of overnight masks just apply a thinner layer and allow it to sink in before bed. Worth trying if you struggle with dry winter skin!

I love clinique's moisture surge range, so when I saw this in the vault a while ago I snapped one up. This is quite pricey, but luckily one tube of it has enough product to last ages.

I've been using it as the last step in my night skincare routine, not as a regular step but more when my face is feeling quite dry. Additionally every time I do a chemical peel or a thorough exfoliation I'll add this in as well to just replenish some moisture to my face. I love how easily it applies, it feels nonoily and creamy. It absorbs relatively quickly, and I feel as if it really locks in the moisture. The next day my face feels soft and plumper, so I definitely think it does a good job as a night mask.

This feels luxurious and has a faint but pleasant smell. I think for the amount of product you get this is worth it, especially if there's a sale or deal going on. Would repurchase!
