Perfect cleanser for combination skin

This is my go to cleanser. I have been using it for years now. I have tried others but always go back to this one. I apply with bath mitts, using two pumps each time. The price is ok for a good quality product, and a bottle lasts about 4-5 months. It foams slightly when applied to the fingertips of the mitts, and covers face, neck and decolage easily with the two squirt amount. I find it keeps break-outs at bay and removes tired pimples easily. It clears away the dry skin from through the night, and used in conjunction with the 3 step toner and moisturiser is the perfect way to start the day. My skin feels soft and clean without feeling dried out.

Good but nothing special

This facial soap is a great cleanser that removes all the dirt from your skin, while being gentle at the same time. It doesn't strip the natural oils off your face and it left my skin feeling quite soft afterwards. My face doesn't feel tight or dry. I Quebec sensitive skin too and found that I had no reactions while using this product.

The cleanser has a gel consistency and has a clear minty green tint to it. This cleanser foams up when you start to use it and allows you to spread it over your face. It's easy to rinse off and doesn't leave a residue on my skin.

The main thing I dislike about this cleanser is the smell. It has a chemical type smell and I prefer a more fresh scent.

This cleanser is quite pricy, as Clinique is a high end brand. It is a good cleanser but I'm not sure that I would pay $40 for this cleanser. It does last you a long time though. However I don't think I would get this again.

Effective cleansing

The best time to buy Clinique is at bonus time, so you get extra products with your purchase, and that was how I got this.

This is step one in the Clinique 3 step system. It is a clear liquid that has the same consistency as flowing hand soap. You can still get the bars of soap that hasn't changed. The soap is mild and does not cause tightening of the skin even if I have done a double cleanse with it. I find it works well with fingers, manual brushes, konjac sponge, all options lead to foam and comes off with a flannel. There is no exfoliant in this, you will need an extra scrub or peel if you want, this is just a basic cleanser and it does that job well. There is no scent in this that I noticed.

This is a yes for the buy again it is more expensive than other cleaners out there but it knows it's job and it does it well, so it would be a bonus time purchase. The price of this if you are buying the kit form or the regular individual sizes are still the same as what I used to pay for it in the 90's, so it is nice that Clinique has kept that the same price.

There are better cleansers out there

This is average, I think there are better cleansers from the supermarket. This is expensive for what it is. It is great for sensitive skin, especially because it is has no fragrance or harsh chemicals. It is non-drying. Go for the mild liquid facial soap because it's easier for sensitive skin. It's good, but it's not my favourite.

Tips: Go with the soap with no alcohol- mild.

My Favourite!

I had my make up done at a Clinique store one day and they washed my face with the Liquid face soap before. This product is amazing, its a clear gel that is dense but spreads easy - I only use one pump for my whole face. This product is amazing for combination skin and this is the ONLY product that has cleared up my acne. I love this product because it doesn't smell or feel that is has harsh chemicals, it has a fresh smell to it. This product lather's into a foam when applied on the face and takes my make up off also. I always follow up with a toner afterwards and I find if the cleanser has missed any make up the toner will get it! My skin is so clear and feels nice and firm. I use this day and night.

Tips: Wet your face before using.

Clinique Liquid Facial Soap Mild

I have been using Clinique skincare for a few years now but up until recent months I have always had oily acne-prone skin. Recently my skin type changed to be much more dry so when this happened I decided to give their mild liquid facial soap a go. I had received a 50ml squeeze tube as a gift with purchase which was designed for dry combination skin.

The product is a clear, mildyly-scented gel formula which lathers easily with only a small amount of product so i can see it lasting awhile. I've been using this for a few weeks now and it's been very effective at cleansing my skin without leaving it overly dry or irritated, even when I was suffering peeling skin from a dreaded cold! I haven't experienced any breakouts from it either which I was concerned about with my acne-prone skin, so this seems to be a very versatile cleanser that would suit most skin types.

Would I purchase again? Not unless it was on special, it is a fantastic, high-quality product but it does have that high-quality price-tag associated with Clinique and I found this cleanser wasn't too different from more affordable alternatives for mild cleansers like Cetaphil to justify spending additional on it. For those who are happy to though it is a great cleanser and you're sure to be happy with it.

Tips: This is a great cleanser if you're wanting something simple to put into your skincare regime, especially if you use medicated skincare.

Simple, non-drying skin care

I bought this after trying a sample and being really impressed. It's a very basic cleanser, and has no obvious scent. It's a clear liquid that is quite runny and foams up easily. I use one pump and that is plenty. I use the dry combination formulation though my skin is oily combination, it gets extremely dry in winter.

This is pretty good value for money - you only need a small amount to foam up and wash your whole face.

Pricey but worth it

I was given this 3 step pack for Christmas a few years ago and I have never gone back. Firstly I love the packaging, it's a large green bottle that's semi transparent so you can see how much product you have left, there's a lot of product in it (it's quite big but you can get travel sizes which last forever too) , the pump is so handy, you can easily control how much you pump out (usually 1-2 pumps) The product itself lathers really well on my skin and really does make it feel calm/smooth. I have dry, sensitive, acne prone skin and I find that it doesn't agitate or dry out my skin and I found it really did help with the acne on my face, if I used thus after I removed my makeup at night time. I found that a few cleansers really dry out my face, this one however, didn't. It lasts me forever thankfully! I usually pick up one every year along with the clarifying lotion. It makes my skin feel so clean and refreshed The product has been adapted 3 different ways for different skin types so you'll definitley fine one for you :)

Very effective foaming cleanser

I have tried the Clinique 3 step system in various stages of my life but no product from the line has performed as well for me as the Liquid Facial soap.

This is a relatively newcomer to the 3 step line-up (previously they just had their cleansing bars which don't work well with my skintype)and I have purchased a couple of these over the past few years in the Mild variant. This is a very effective foaming cleanser which is very gentle yet very good at removing eye makeup.

There is no fragrance. This is a slightly runny clear liquid 'soap' it is foaming when mixed with water but it is not dryingly foaming. The product comes in a lovely frosted pale Clinique green bottle with a handy pump top. It dispenses just the right amount of product for each application. It doesn't sting my eyes unlike other facial washes and it washes away cleanly with no residue. This is also very, very concentrated so you really get your money's worth - one bottle lasts me up to 8 months or so, so very economical for the $40 or so you pay for this product.

Overall, a great cleanser especially when I was slightly younger and had not so dry skin, but as I prefer cream cleansers and cold creams nowadays I am personally not likely to repurchase, however I could definitely still use this as a quick shower cleanser when required without compromising the condition of my skin.

Tips: Don't be put off by the price - this will last you a lot longer than some cheaper facial cleansers and could save you money in the long-run!

Perfect cleanser

Clinique, when it comes to skincare products for me seem to be perfection! I have dry, sensitive skin which tends to react to some products, but not Clinique.

There has been many times I have strayed from the Clinique three step skincare to try other products, but I keep going back to it. Why? Because it seems to be so moisturising and hydrating for my dry skin.

The packaging is distinctively Clinique, with the iconic C and lovely sleek, stylish pump bottle. Clinique products always look high quality and attractive. The pump is great, as it is so handy and dispenses the right amount of product. It's also hygienic, which is definitely a plus.

This liquid facial soap is such a lovely cleanser. The formula is so gentle, yet is so effective taking off your days makeup. It's great that it doesn't sting my eyes like other cleansers. After using this my skin feels so clean, refreshed and healthy. No uncomfortable tight feeling with this!

I then follow this cleanser with the clarifying lotion and dramatically different moisturiser. Using these products gives my dry skin much needed moisture and hydration.

I can't recommend this product enough. Clinique has made such a winner here.

Tips: Follow this cleanser with the clarifying lotion and dramatically different moisturiser.
