I had been using this toner as a part of my daily skincare regime for quite some time until I realised how high of an alcohol content it has. I've since stopped using it completely and haven't really noticed any difference so personally think it might not be worth the price tag. I still have most of a bottle left and I don't want to waste it so I'll finish the current bottle and not repurchase.

Tips: Hold a cotton pad against the opening and flip the bottle (quickly) upside-down. Repeat once more on the pad and this quantity is plenty for the entire face.
I love this stuff, I feel like it actually helps clear my skin up and I was using it religiously until I went down the rabbit hole of youtube videos on skincare, specifically Clinique, and was advised how bad this toner/clarifying lotion is, so I am cautious now however if someone could please advise to me if this is actually true? Will it strip my skin?
I love this toner. It feels so refreshing on the skin. The problem that I have is that it is often the first thing to leave my beauty regime if I am pushed for time. I do notice that when I use it my moisturiser or serum are better absorbed into my skin and it also helps to remove the dead and dull skin. It is an excellent product if you remember to actually use it!
This is a very intense toner. The first time I used it with a cotton pad I was amazed how much dirt came off my face even after I had cleansed my skin. I would use this again however.. I found it very harsh on my skin, after a few days of use my skin didn't seem to need such an intense toner and it did leave my skin incredibly tight..
Tips: For my this is a 2-3x a week toner something great for a clarify but just too much for everyday.
I like this toner.. I over uae it so i run out of it quite fast.. It seems as it i prevents and takes away blackheads it removes al the extra dirf that may have hide.
The good thing aboit clinique is that you can mox amd match as the producks work with you skin. Its a lovelu brand
I love this product!! It leaves my skin refreshed and smooth. I bought I part of a three step system, of the three products I bought the Moisturer and this again but not the cleanser. I love how clean and smooth my skin feels after using this. I don’t use it everyday, just when my skin feels “textured”. It definitely improves the texture instantly leaving a smooth surface for moisturiser than makeup. The only cons- It smells quite strong which can be off putting and I could imagine it wouldn’t be too suitable for dry skin.
I had this as part of a 3 step system. If you are wanting to try this use the testers first or gwp if you happen to get a sample of this. The girls at the Clinique counter are pretty helpful and will set you on your way trying it also.
I unfortunately brought a set that probably wasn’t best tailored to my skin. There are different versions and combinations of the 3 step system so make sure you get the right one for your skin type.
My toner was very drying on my skin. It felt amazing to use and like it really cleaned my skin. Cleaning, cooling and tingling as it’s used. But my skin was very tight and dry after using. I have sensitive skin so I think that was another reason why this didn’t work for me.. I found it quite scented and a bit stingy on certain areas. My eyes would water when using and a few patches on my skin would go quite red and sting also.
Another sting is the price you pay in the pocket. It is quite expensive. All I can say is try before you buy so you can make sure it’s the right system for your skin.
Tips: Try before you buy and wait for a gift with purchase to make it more worth your while.
This toner is the best I have tried. It leaves my skin feeling so smooth. Other toners leave my skin feeling really dry but this is just perfect. It slightly tingles when it has been applied but I have been told this means it is working. !
I read an article a few months ago that stated you don't need a toner if your cleanser is working properly, and I gave up on mine for a little while. But it was a mistake to follow a review rather than go with what I knew to be a winning formula for me. The 3 step system needs to be followed to get the best results from your moisturiser. Not only does this product finish any cleaner application, it also removes any dry skin and helps open pores to get the most out of the range. I use the larger bottle which has a press down pump, I find this the best option as it's less bottles to handle in the mornings, just push your cotton wool down on the pump lid and your away. Less wastage and if I can't afford to replace the large bottle, you can just top it up with the smaller one.
Sets your face up for the day, prevents flaking skin getting foundation clogged marks as it removes the dry flaking bits first.
Tips: Follow the 3 step for the best results
I bought the big bottle and it lasted 8 months. I used it twice a day. Really cleans pores thoroughly. Does have a bit of a alchohol smell, but it doesn’t dry my skin out.
