Clinique Three Little Soaps – Mild Dry Combination

This is a review of one of my favorite and long-standing skincare essentials! I hope you’ll like it too.

Clinique Three Little Soaps

About me:

I have combination skin, prone to oiliness in the T-zone, with redness, occasional pimples and blackheads on cheeks and chin. :/

I first bought this soap set a few years ago when I was studying abroad, and the fact that it was so small and compact was what drew me to it in the first place and since that day, I use it religiously.

Packaging:

The soap is packaged in a sturdy cardboard box in the light green Clinique color and weighs 5.2oz/150g.

It’s the first step in the 3-step skincare and the box also mentions that it is meant for the #2 skin type, which is the dry/combination skin.

Ingredients:

The three soaps are packaged in a really compact way, next to each other, and there is also the very handy soap dish that comes with it.

I really like this soap dish, it’s great quality and has a cover that prevents the soap from going soggy from humidity. It’s just the perfect size too.

This little soap can last you a very long time. I can use all three soaps for almost a whole year! Now, that’s good bang for your buck! 🙂

Scent:

Like all of Clinique products, it’s fragrance-free and hypoallergenic, so there is no obvious scent, which is great news for anyone who is sensitive to artificial colours and fragrances.

Usage:

I use this soap about 2-3 times a week when I wear makeup, since otherwise I rinse my face with just water. It doesn’t get very soapy, but does the job well and takes off all the makeup cleanly.

Results:

It cleanses my face and neck very well and removes ALL makeup without the need to use any special makeup removers. The skin feels soft and supple, but I think with daily use it may be a bit drying – for me anyway! However, if you have any acne, it will do a good job drying it up and also minimizing pores. I’m a fan.

Overall, I’ve been using this soap for years and recommend anyone to try it out, if you’re looking for something simple and natural for your skin.

Clinique Chubby Stick Shadow Tint For Eyes #06 Mighty Moss: Review & Swatches

This year I fell in love with cream eyeshadows and then I had a chance meeting with a cream shadow in a pencil form – a Chubby Stick from Clinique. The review is below!

The slightly protruding pencil centre is optimal for quick and easy eyeshadow application on the go. It’s a really good travel format, when you don’t have the time or the means to carry a brush for your eyeshadow. You don’t even need to get your fingers dirty. 🙂

Texture-wise, the eyeshadow is dense and hard, but that makes sense, because otherwise they wouldn’t keep their shape inside of the case. That being said, it doesn’t tug at your skin and makes the application a breeze. However, you gotta consider that the pigmentation of the chubby stick is not amazing. For me, it take quite a few back and forth applications to get a good layer of color. To see the difference, at the top the chubby stick was applied once, and at the bottom, a few time. There is a pretty big difference in color intensity.

This shade (06 Mighty Moss) I picked exclusively for the color, because I love green colors around my eyes! This shade is an interesting one – from an olive to an almost emerald green. The eyeshadow has a satin finish, because it has microscopic shimmer – really pretty effect!

 

Some photos of what it looks like on the eyes. I do recommend putting on an eyeshadow base for the color to show through better and to increase its longevity to 7- 8 hours.
