Clinique Clarifying Lotion 1 is a gentle exfoliating toner designed to remove dead skin cells and prepare the skin for further treatments. It’s part of Clinique’s famous 3-Step Skin Care System and is specifically formulated for dry to very dry skin types. Here's a breakdown of its features and how to use it:
Gentle Exfoliation: Unlike traditional toners, Clinique Clarifying Lotion 1 provides a mild exfoliation that helps to remove dead skin cells, dirt, and impurities without drying out the skin. This helps to promote a smoother, brighter complexion.
Hydration: The formula contains hydrating ingredients that help to replenish the skin, making it ideal for dry or sensitive skin types. It ensures the skin stays soft and moisturized after exfoliation.
Prepares Skin for Moisturizer: By removing excess oils and debris, it allows your moisturizer and other skincare treatments to penetrate more effectively, maximizing their benefits.
Alcohol-Free: It’s free from drying alcohols, making it more suitable for sensitive and dry skin types. The formulation is designed to cleanse and exfoliate without stripping the skin.
Balances Skin: It helps to balance the skin’s natural pH levels, which is essential for maintaining a healthy skin barrier.
Dermatologist-Tested: Clinique products are allergy-tested and free from fragrance, making them a safer option for sensitive skin.
Cleanse Your Skin: Begin your routine by using a gentle cleanser suitable for your skin type to remove makeup, dirt, and excess oil.
Apply Clarifying Lotion 1: Pour a small amount of the Clinique Clarifying Lotion 1 onto a cotton pad. You can also apply it directly to your palm and gently press it into your face, but the cotton pad is the most common method for even application.
Gently Sweep Over Face: Sweep the cotton pad across your face and neck, avoiding the delicate eye area. Use light, upward motions to promote circulation and ensure even application.
Allow Absorption: Let the toner absorb into your skin for a few moments before continuing with the next steps of your skincare routine.
Moisturize: Follow up with your favorite moisturizer to lock in hydration and keep your skin feeling soft and smooth.
Use Daily: For optimal results, use this clarifying lotion twice a day—once in the morning and once in the evening. Adjust the frequency depending on how your skin reacts, but generally, this can be used daily.
Clinique Clarifying Lotion 1 is perfect for those with dry or very dry skin who need a gentle yet effective exfoliant that won’t leave their skin feeling tight or stripped. It’s an excellent way to refine the skin texture while maintaining moisture balance.
