I'm a huge fan of Clinique products. I always find their products to be of a high quality and they always work. They may be pricey compared to cheaper brands, but they are worth the price tag. For example I am a fan of their Anti-Blemish clarifying lotion, I recently attempted to find a cheaper alternative and when I ran out I tried other similar products. This was a bad idea, my blemishes and spots became much worse and I quickly switched back to using it, and now my skin is visibly clearer and much better again. - About Clinique - Clinique are an offshoot from the Estee Lauder company and were founded in 1968.

Essentially, this is a very good product. It does exactly what it claims to do, which is reduce shine and absorb excess oil in problem areas such as the forehead, nose and chin. It is a powder-based gel, which in all my experiments with these sorts of products, is the only formula that actually gets the job done. Having said that, there are a few problems though. If you have oily skin that is prone to breakouts, smearing this on can spread the already present bacteria to other parts of the face and as a result, cause spots to spread. If you have a bad breakout, I really wouldn't reccommend using this until it has started to clear up. On clear skin that is just ...  Read the complete review
