Too emollient for acne prone dry skin

I have dry skin that's acne prone and even after a few weeks of using this it was still causing whiteheads. Had to return it.

Love this stuff
-01.28.13
I start out my day with this moisturizer pretty much on a daily basis as I prefer it without the SPF.Summer months if im going to be out in the sun all day i will use the SPF version. It smooths out my skintone and makes your skin look fresh!

Like a Good Night of Sleep
-12.01.12
Quick Take: absorbs quickly, intensive
I love this night cream because it makes my skin glow in the morning. It's heavier than some creams so a little goes a long way but it absorbs nicely into the skin. I feel like it removes the little wrinkles that I have so for right now its the perfect mix of age management and moisture.

Just okay
-06.24.12
I used this product religiously for nearly a year. My skin was softer, smoother, but I get that from almost any Clinique regimen I follow accordingly. The age-deceleration? Not so much. I saw no improvement of the lines, even though my skin felt softer to the touch. I also found the product to be extremely sticky- even my husband commented on getting glued to my face when he attempted to smooch me. I'm going to go to another Clinique product.

This product feels great on my face. It is not too greasy and is the perfect consistency for me. You only need to use a little at a time!

works fine..........
-03.16.12
Quick Take: dimishes fine lines, hydrating
Of course, it's the usual Clinique unscented product, which is a good thing. It's pretty heavy, but not greasy and only requires a thin coat. I was just hoping it would have that great gel/lotion texture that Moisture Surge has. This is more of a standard cream.

Greasy and heavy
-02.15.12
Quick Take: greasy, stings eyes, smells funny
I have been continuing to try this product for almost a year now (because I spent 50 bucks on it) but I think Im going to finally throw it out. It is so unbelievably greasy and really stings your eyes if you get it too close to them. It also has a really unpleasant smell. I have not seen any "Lines and wrinkles appear to evaporate" at all. Its just marketing hype unfortunately. I like Clinique and have been using their products for about 20 years now but this is just gross. Sorry :(

This product is great. It's expensivw but a little does go a long way and the results I get with this produt are well worth the cost. Not greesy like other creams I have used. I noticed less breake out and a more even skin tone after about a week or so. Great for use in cold weather.

Really works!
-12.31.11
Quick Take: preventative
I never used to need a night moisturizer but ever since I hit my late teens to early twenties, I've noticed that I get really dry around the mouth and nose area when I wake up and after I take a shower. I decided to get a sample of this one first and was pretty satisfied with the result so I decided to buy the whole thing. I have dry-combination skin where I'm oily around my t-zone by the end of the day but dry everywhere else that I need a day and night moisturizer to keep a healthy balance.
I use the moisturizing gel from the same brand, but the gel takes away hydration since it's meant to keep you from being shiny during the day, so at night you definitely need to put some moisture back.
This is unscented, very light, and absorbs quickly. I also put a little dab right underneath my eye area and it doesn't sting even after I wake up and rub my eyes. It's a definite plus and I would recommend this product to anyone!

-12.25.11
Ever since Clinique d/c the great Anti-Gravity cream I have been trying all their new moisturizers as Clinique is still one of the best brands. However this cream does absolutely nothing, no fine lines eraser, no repair boosting, no lifting no firming. Clinique please bring back the Anti-Gravity facial cream or make a decent replacement for it.

Great everyday moisturizer if you have dry skin. Other creams are fine in the summer time, but I come back to the cream every year for winter when my skin becomes extra dry. I have mixed feelings in terms of it's anti-aging claims.

-11.08.11
I like this moisturizer and have been using it for about a year. I hsve foudn that this "dry combo" type takes longer to sink into skin and feels a bit greasy, which is why I only gave it 3 stars. It does moisturize but I cannot tell if it has done anything with anti-aging yet.

It Really Works!
-06.07.11
Quick Take: dimishes fine lines, preventative
I have combination skin -very dry on my cheeks, freckles and a big patch of roseacea on my face. Great. I also had a sample of Youth Surge waiting to be tried. I'm usually a skeptic when it comes to claims of anything extraordinary, but when I woke up one morning and realized that my skin had become dull, blotchy and with such uneven tone, I needed something really good, really fast. I started using Youth Surge and I swear, within three nights I was amazed at how much improvement I saw. It changed my skin! The dryness was evened out and the texture of my skin was soft again! In about a week or so, the redness had faded about 25%. I look - better! I'm past the sample, and about to add Day Surge to my routine. Love Clinique!

feel-good moisturizer
-05.01.11
This night cream has a great texture that feels a little like a gel, so it's not too heavy. Slides on, and I wake up with smooth, soft skin. No fragrance, no heavy, sticky feel. My skin feels feels amazing using this.
