Not dramatic gel.

This is a product that I had to get after purchasing the other bottle Clinique makes I thought I'd see how this one works. Well it works, the component is similar a pglass looking plastic bottle with a pump yay for sanitation. The formula is a light weight almost cream liquid almost gel and it isn't sticky for being a gel but it does adhere or absorb rather into the skin. Leaving no traces behind. The feeling is not harsh and doesn't interfere with my skins mantle. There's no reactions and the skin does seem to be moisturised. This is recommended to be used both am & pm,with that being said I used it as my am cream and had a night cream because of the fact it wasn't a heavy product it didn't feel like my skin would get the pm treatment it requires. Doesn't interfere with the layer being under my sunscreen primer and makeup. Left my skin looking bright and moist but not oily. Downfall of a pump is you cnat get every bit out I'd say the last 1/3 of the bottle was wasted because of this reason and for the price that was disappointing. So I'd rather that it came in a pottle but do understand its sanitary to be in a pump they jsut need to sort that part out.

My go to moisturiser

I have been using the Dramatically Different Moisturiser for years and although I loved it, it was slightly too oily for me. When I noticed that they did a gel version (oil free) I was sold. I adore the texture it’s light and easily absorbed and leaves my skin feeling soft but not greasy. It’s about $69 for a bottle (plastic with a pump top) which is definitely not on the cheaper side but one bottle lasts me about 4-6 months so I don’t mind paying slightly more. Because it is so lightweight it can be used alone or with an SPF and still leaves the skin smooth. I like to switch it up now and then but this is definitely a staple in my beauty regime.

Moisture surge

This product should be a staple for anyone with combination to dry skin. Iconic bottle which is durable and sturdy and a little goes a long way. I have sensitive skin and don’t react, perfect to use before foundation as mine still stays all day and doesn’t move. I would recommend this as just a moisturiser, definitely still need a serum and eye cream on top.

Hydration for dry skin

Clinique is one of my all time favourite skincare brands. I have been using Clinique on and off for approximately ten years, as I just feel the quality and range of products is amazing. If you have read any of my other Clinique reviews you would know I'm a huge fan, who has tried most of the skincare and makeup.

I love the three step skincare, and how the products are so fantastic for my dry, sensitive skin. My skin can react to some skincare brands, but I've never had an issue with Clinique.

Firstly, the Clinique packaging is great and you can always spot a Clnique product - they just look so high-end, Iconic and so stylish, with its silver writing and C emblem. This moisturiser is in a pump, which I find so hygienic and convenient.

I have used both this version and the normal lotion. This gel's consistency is lighter than the lotion, but just as good in my opinion.

This moisturiser is perfect for my dry, slighty sensitive skin. It absorbs well, and seems to even out my skintone, giving hydration to my dry patches. My skin feels soft and so moisturised after using this.

This is one of my favourite moisturisers, and another Clinique product that's a sure winner for me.

Tips: Wait for a gift with purchase, as its a way to try lots of Clinique sample sized products.

Dramatically helpful :)

I bought the 200ml version of this product back in October 2014 and have used around a quarter of it and I have used it (mostly) every day since purchasing. I have found that two full pumps of the product covers my face and neck really well. Once the product has been smoothed into my skin, it does not have any sort of tackiness, it just makes my skin feel really nice and smooth. I am horrendously oily through my T zone and I have found this product sits quite well, and aids in controlling my oils. I have found the gel to have a light scent, but it is nice, and I suppose adds to the 'freshness' I feel after applying. My skin seems to really love this gel, so I will continue to use it.

Nice and Light

I have oily acne-prone skin and 2 years ago, I switched to the Clinique 3-step system to target my problematic skin. This was my moisturiser and I love it! I repurchased this and still use it as my every day moisturiser. It's light and gets absorbed easily on the skin. It also doesn't break me out which is important. It hydrates my skin and it doesn't irritate it. This is my go-to product and there is a reason why this is one of Clinique's top products.

Great moisturiser

I love this moisturiser! It is so light and refreshing and absorbs quickly which is great for my rushed morning routine. The only slightly annoying thing with this moisturiser is that I found if I didn't apply it smooth enough and make sure it was all over my skin, my powder foundation would refuse to stick to any parts with no moisturiser and sometimes show lines from my finger strokes. No biggy just had to make sure I was consistent with the application. I like that this moisturiser has no smell and doesn't feel too drying even though it's a gel so great for my skin as it can get quite oily towards the end of the day. It lasts forever! I think I've had mine for around a year and am only just running out (I do use a different moisturiser at night). You only need a pump or two for your whole face and it's easy to dispense the perfect amount.

Tips: If you use powder foundation, make sure you're consistent with your application.

Brilliant!

I absolutely love this product and used to use it regularly but it's quite expensive and not always affordable if you are using it over face and neck twice a day as recommended. It is soft to the touch and has a very silky feel. Absorbs quickly and leave skin feeling lovely and supple although the effect did not last as long as some of the other Clinique moisturisers I have used. I have a combination skin and found it good for all areas for short term use or when in a drier climate.

Gel with me

This product is fantastic! It levels out the oils and water in your skin. My skin was very hydrated and smooth, my skin soaked it up. The Gel was nice and cooling in my skin. It helped with dry spots and keeping my oils at bay. My makeup sat nicely on top of this.

Tips: I put it in the fridge to get it nice and cold then apply it to my skin. It makes it extra refreshing and help with my bags

Favourite Moisturiser

This is my favourite moisturiser I’ve ever used! Makes my skin feel so soft and that feeling lasts all day as well! It’s quite pricey but it is well worth in my opinion. It dries fast and leaves your skin feeling great! This formula is also one for oily skin as it hydrated it but doesn’t leave your skin feeling greasy as it’s so light-weight.

Tips: If you’re concerned about the price, it often goes on sale around Christmas or comes out as a part of a gift set so keep you’re eyes out for it around the end of the year!

You can also test it out as little travel sizes are often part of gift sets too!
