A verrry common beauty problem of mine is redness. I have it on my cheeks, my forehead, around my nose, etc. And redness is like a zit..its sooo difficult to get rid of and I feel like its super obvious!
I've tried a LOT of things to help with my redness and one of them was the Clinique powder aimed at making redness disappear. Or so it says.
Its not cheap. It retails for around $34.50 but thankfully you get a WHOLE bunch of product (.84oz to be exact). You even get a little brush that comes with it, but in all honesty the brush SUCKS!
Yes, like I said the brush sucks. Its not very fluffy like a kabuki brush. The whole twist idea is clever...but it causes the brush to get bunched up.
Very standard Clinique packaging.
Not so sure that the way they package the powder was a good idea either. It tends to spill out and stay there. I know Bare Minerals does the same thing with all their powders...but I never had this problem with their packaging. With all the product stuck like that it makes me lose a LOT of product accidentally and hard to pick up product too.
Not a fan of the texture. Its super chalky and I feel like no matter how much I blend it leaves like a yellow/white cast on my face. Not good!
Does this product work though? Does it actually fix my redness?
Like the description says its "instant relief". So yes. It does temporarily fix my redness...but it doesn't last long.
Because I feel like it leaves a noticeable cast on my skin, I never wear it over my makeup. That means I use this product just ONCE and that's right before I put on any makeup.
I don't think it was worth the $35. So..yeah. Bummer. Its also not travel friendly. That tub is huge! Barely fits in my makeup bag!
Does anyone else have this product? Did you feel the same way I did? Let me know!
Cheers!
