Formula and texture

The lotion is a light liquid that spreads evenly on a cotton pad and leaves skin fresh and clean. The formula contains salicylic acid, witch hazel, glycerin, trehalose and sodium hyaluronate. Salicylic acid helps lift dead cells and excess oil from the surface, while hyaluronate and glycerin keep skin comfortable. Clinique states that the lotion is fragrance free and oil free and contains no parabens or phthalates. The result is clear-looking pores and less oil on the surface. The lotion is step two of Clinique’s three-step routine: cleanse, exfoliate, moisturise. For the third step our shop carries the Dramatically Different moisturiser.
