Clinique 3 Step Skin Care

Amazing skin with Clinique’s 3 Step Skin Care system!

by Britany Murphy

Clinique’s unique brand of skin care products was developed by a group of leading dermatologists to ensure customers have great, healthy skin.  The 3 Step Skin Care system caters to consumers' specific needs to maintain glowing and beautiful skin.

Step 1: Cleanse

In order to cleanse your skin, use the Clinique’s Liquid Facial Soap or Clinique Facial Soap. These brands of soap were created by dermatologists to work with various skin types.  Clinique's facial soaps are custom fit to meet your skin requirements and range from formulas that deal with very dry skin, to dry combination skin, to oily skin, and a mild formula for sensitive skin.

Step 2: Exfoliate

Exfoliation is a key part of skin renewal.  Clinique’s Clarifying Lotion was made by dermatologists to reveal clearer and smoother skin after a few uses of the product. The Clarifying Lotion reveals skin’s natural radiance.  The Clarifying Lotion also has formulas that range from very dry skin, to dry combination skin, to oily skin, and a mild formula for sensitive skin.

Step 3: Moisturize

Clinique’s Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion and Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel is the skin “drink” created by Clinique dermatologists to ensure moisture balance.  The Dramatically Different Lotion is to be used after cleansing and exfoliation wherever the skin feels dry and the Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel is light-weight and works to smooth, soften and improve skin.

Use all three steps together, twice a day; every day and you will be rewarded with that famous Clinique glowing skin!

After-sun Soothers
We do our best to be sunsmart, but every once in a while we get a little carried away and stay out a bit longer than we should. If we’re lucky, we wind up tanned, but not burned. Then all we have to deal with is evening out the weird tan lines caused by whatever halter or tank we had on that day. In those cases, we opt for a few days of a daily tanning moisturizer like Oil of Olay Touch of Sun Body Lotion.

Smooth Shave
Whether you've been shaving for years or just started yesterday, nicks, razor burn and ingrown hairs are your worst enemy. You may have come to terms with them but we haven't. Here are our tried & true ways to prevent irritation and keep your gams smooth.
