Skin Deep - Part 2 By Kate Harvey-Jones, Beauty Editor Having taken Clinique's online skin test a few weeks back, I discovered that I had Combination Skin - a mix of both dry and oily patches across my face. Quite the contradiction, I'm sure you'll agree! My greasy areas have always been on the bridge of my nose, my forehead and across my chin, while dry patches of skin tend to appear around my eyes, mouth and on my cheeks. Not a good look, ladies, I assure you! I've tried a number of products to improve my problem areas, but so far nothing has worked. Until now. Having used Clinique's suggested cleanser, exfloiater and moisturiser regularly for two weeks, I can honestly say that my skin appears brighter, smoother and generally clearer. The oily patches seem to have dried up significantly - in fact, the only time I noticed slight greasiness was when aboard a packed London tube, and that's to be expected! - while the drier patches don't seem as rough or as prominent as before. I'm extremely happy with the results, and it just goes to show how you don't have to fork out on ludicrously-overpriced products to look and feel good. As a beauty editor, I often feel demotivated when another product fails to do what it says on the box. Clinique's 3 Step Skincare System, however, has breathed new life into my passion for the industry - and into my skin! I, for one, certainly won't be asking Clinique for my money back. www.clinique.co.uk / Images: Clinique  |
