My Clinique must haves…

 7 Day Scrub Cream Rinse-Off Formula

I exfoliate once a week and having tried various products find Clinique’s 7 day scrub to be a real winner. It polishes the skin with the aim of making it look translucent and brighter and is also meant to lessen fine lines.  It makes your skin feel wonderfully soft, without residue, after rinsing.

Self Sun Face Tinted Lotion

This is fab if you’re feeling a little pasty and want a hint of colour to warm up your skin tones under make up or without.  It suits all skin types and the good thing is that it has a colour straight at the tube so you can see where it goes (meaning no white bits!).  When wearing, I put it on after cleansing at night in place of my normal moisturiser to give it time to develop.

Super City Block 40 SPF

I use this all year round come rain or shine as helps protect the skin against the elements and offers high-level daily sun protection in a sheer, weightless formula. For all skin types, I wear mine over my normal moisturiser. It has a tint so you could wear it without foundation if you preferred.

Repairwear Laser Focus foundation

I LOVE this foundation.  It’s easy to apply, is a creamy texture that gives good even coverage without looking caked on.  I would highly recommend it.  The only downside is that it doesn’t have a pump dispenser which is slightly annoying (I recycled one off my previous foundation which fitted perfectly).  Apart from that it’s a great buy and there are lots of shades to choose from to suit your skin type.

 Superbalm Moisturising Gloss

Anyone that knows me knows I’m rarely without my lip gloss on!  I am addicted to the stuff and love the way it feels when wearing it.  Having been a long term fan of the Lancome Juicy Tube, I switched a few years ago to the Clinique Superbalm range as found them to be more like a moisturising balm and less sticky than it’s competitor.  I wear mine over my Revlon ‘pink in the afternoon’ lipstick to change the colour to suit what I’m wearing.  I also find them a little too sheer without.  My favourite colours are Raspberry, Apricot, Grapefruit and Mango.
