Clinique 3-Step Skin System Reviews

I have always wanted to try Clinique's 3 step system & I finally got around to purchasing it & unfortunately it has been a bad experience. I have had more breakouts than ever & I'm sure their toner could strip paint (I actually tried this & it does). I won't be purchasing it again - back to aesop for me.

The famous 3 step system! I went for this in my hour of need, 6 weeks before my wedding. Over the years I must have spent thousands on my skin, so I decided to spend a little bit more! The lady behind the counter promised me this would work, so I rushed home to use it, and I must say my skin instantly felt very soft and calm. I saw a minor ...  Read the complete review

I love the 3 step system. I have oily acne prone skin and I have been using the 3 step in level 3. soap for oily skin: I find the soap too leave my skin feeling thoroughly cleansed and removed of all oily residue I tend too accumulate on my skin. This soap is definitely not for everyone as it is very stripping but not in a bad way for ...  Read the complete review

Background: I've always had rubbish skin and as such I've been through many phases: the tea tree oil phase, the witchhazel stage, the benzoyl peroxide era... eventually, as I'm now the wrong side of 25 and still suffering from spots, I decided it was time to throw some money at the problem so decided to try Clinique Three Step. The ...  Read the complete review

I started using the 3 step system after I was given a trial pack at the Clinique counter on a wander through Debenhams. Prior to starting my trial with Clinique I used to buy a different face wash, toner and moisturiser every time from Boots. My theory behind doing this was that by using different products quite often, my skin wouldn't ...  Read the complete review

Clinique recently launched a massive campaign detailing their three step plan. This is a skin care regime that consists of a soap (either liquid or solid) a clarifying lotion (so a toner basically) and either a moisture lotion or moisture gel - a moisturiser. The campaign offered customers a week's supply of each product which then needed to be ...  Read the complete review

I have used the Clinique 3 step system for years now and swear by it! I use the formula for dry/combination skin. This set is terrific for people with dry skin or combination skin, because it evens out the skin tone providing it with essential moisture without leaving it greasy. The set in total is about $50 and it well worth the price. It ...  Read the complete review

Since the time I was born I have had very dry skin; as a child I used Hydrocortisone cream which only ever soothed the itching and flaking for a while and then caused the dryness to flare up again, with the added bonus of making my skin hyper sensitive. It wasn’t until I became an image obsessed, self absorbed, love hungry teenager that it ...  Read the complete review

I am someone who suffered bad skin for all of my teenage days (I'm now 20), and tried absolutely EVERYTHING to get rid of the spots, we're talking every type of cream & wash out there, I even was on medication from the doctors it was that bad! Now this was from when I was about 14-18 & even though all of these methods helped, nothing had ...  Read the complete review

Initially I got a sample set of the 3 step system and after a week went to a CLinique counter and explained that my skin was getting worse and that i had more spots than ever - i was told this was all the 'gunk' working it's way out adn i was so close to blemish free smooth skin. So I bought the full sizes of the soap / toner / and ...  Read the complete review

I was getting extremely fed-up with spending money on facial care products to keep my combination, dry and oily teenage skin spot and flake free, I was yet to find a facial system that worked. I suffer from slight eczema around my nose which flares up if I use any thing to aggravate it, so it’s difficult to find a product that keeps spots at bay ...  Read the complete review

I really wanted to take care of my skin, I suppose I had pretty good skin, I barely broke out and when I did the zits were gone in about two-three days and there were barely any. But I thought this might not always be the case (I?m 13) and I wanted to get into it nice and early and I thought cliniques ?3 step? would be the way to go. I had read ...  Read the complete review

I have been using Clinique products for two years now. I didnt have bad skin to begin with, in fact people used to tell me I have great skin even when I wasnt using Clinique. After two years, I don't really know if it has improved my skin. Sure it feels soft, smooth etc but it did before too! Maybe if you have bad skin to start with it may ...  Read the complete review

A few years ago I hit a milestone age and I thought it was about time I started paying some attention to my skincare ((Ok, then, it was 30). We were shopping in Lakeside and I was feeling a bit free with my credit card, so wandered around all the make-up counters in one of the department stores. I noticed that the Clinique counter was ...  Read the complete review

~Introduction~ This 1960's 3 step is what gives Clinique the bad name it has with industry professionals and savvy beauty addicts. The special 'system' is basically a routine of totally stripping and then greasily replenishing your skin. If you are left with anything that resembles normal skin at the end of this saga, you are ...  Read the complete review

cliniques great stuff but the counter girls r kinda deceptive - Advantages: noticed improvement immediately, less acne, nice clean feeling - Disadvantages: the xlinique counter woman said that the clarifyer and the lotion were the most important but i beg to differ. the soap n claryfier are mandatory for this system to work. i dont dislike the moisturizer at all but its not imperative to use it., the clarifyer burns the first times you use it., the moisturizer is runny and doesnt smell very good.

I'll admit I love lotions and potions for your skin, but when it comes to actually cleansing it using some greasy runny cleanser than a stinging tonerthat never really appealed so in all honesty good old soap and water ruled the day! So when I heard about Clinique's 3 step cleansing system it intrigued me as it seemed alot easier. However ...  Read the complete review

I have to tell you I had always been a bit optimistic about buying the Clinique 3 step because it was a fairly expensive habit to have to keep up, but to my delight i recieved it as a present for christmas, let me tell you about it and see what you think. STEP ONE This is a fairly large bar of soap (about double the length of an ...  Read the complete review
