Clinique Anti Blemish Foundation Review : YAY!
Clinique makeup and facial cleaners is always something we had laying around the house since I was a kid before I ever had to start using cleansers and things for my face. My mom loves Clinique products and Estee Lauder but my mom hates the smell of Estee Lauder products cause she is easily nauseated like an always pregnant woman no joke, so if you find your self feeling the same way about Estee Lauder products then you should start using Clinique because they are of the same quality if not Clinique is better and usually all their products are scentless or very light and fresh nothing too strong at all. (Ps both Estee Lauder and Clinique are under the same company, that's what the lady at the VaVaVoom counter told me the other day when I was picking up this foundation)
Okay into the review, earlier before I raved about the Neutrogena Micro clear foundation, for being really good and light with a medium and build able coverage, I still stand by my word for that but if you have a bit more cash to spend I would defiantly say getting this anti blemish foundation, would really be in your best interest if you have oily skin, and acne prone skin. I bought it here in Amman Jordan where I live, for about 36 JDs which equals in american dollars 51 Dollars which is double the price than it is being sold in the states, so when I go back to Texas for the summer, I will definatly getting my stalk up on
them.
It is amazing, I like this one alot because I am actually seeing an improvement in my skin with its use, and I am not going to lie, I even bought the anti blemish concealer for concealing pimples, I mean what better than to conceal and heal your blemishes. I do not like the Neutrogena concealer for anti blemish as much as I like this one at all, it actually works as a spot remover underneath your makeup for the day, where as at night you can opt for a stronger non tinted one like my personal favourite spot remover being the Origins spot remover.
This product is also light with medium coverage that can be built up. As I said before try not to use your foundation for coverage use it for evening out your tones and enhancing your skin, and in this case for also healing you skin gradually with time. If you need more coverage than use a concealer.
I LOVE THIS product and can not recommend it more.
I also advise that if your going to use this product that you use a pedal foundation brush not a stippling brush or any rounded top foundation brush because those brushes give a sheerer coverage, due to the fact that they soak up some product deep within the bristles. If you want no strokes showing on your face and a more flawless look then after applying you foundation with the pedal brush looking thing then you can use your stippling brush (I have a elf all over powder brush which is AMAZING used as a foundation brush) afterwards just to push the product in gently and lightly brush away any lines created by a pedal brush cause they tend to do that especially with beginners if you are one.
And because I do not know if it is really called a pedal brush I will be putting a pick for you here :D
If you find that this or any foundation even the foundation your using sometimes doesn't glid along well enough even with moisturizer on your skin, then apply the moisturizer with your brush first then apply your foundation with that same brush this will prevent it from soaking the product and will also help the product move along better on your skin.
Lastly if you are going to spend the moneyhave the lady at the counter show you how it works whats the best way to use it, what kind of tricks she has, can she offer you a sample? Can she do you a whole new face of make up on you? I had the lady pamper me and do my whole face of makeup before purchasing.
Plus this way she can match you and get your skin color exactly right, and if you don't like it, she'll take it off and show you a different color, not you have to go in a buy a whole nother bottle to try to get your color.
Have fun! Shop on! Love you dollys!
