Review Time: CLinique 3 Step Skin Care

This is a review for the Clinique 3 Step Skin Care System
Price: $59.00
(Liquid Soap $15.00; Clarifying lotion $20.00, Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel $24.00)
Total price will vary depending on the size of the bottles or if you get a bar soap instead of the liquid soap. These are just the prices for the actual products I own.
Description: This skincare consists of 3 steps: Cleanse, Exfoliate and Moisturize. Clinique claims to improve the looks of your skin after just one week of using this system. You will also notice less flakiness, more even texture, makeup will go on easier. In two weeks you'll see that the moisture level of your skin is more balanced, skin feels smoother, more resilient, and more radiant. Overtime you'll notice that drier skin will feel more comfortable, oiler skin is less shiny, less prone to breakouts, skin looks so good, you will actually need less makeup.

My take on it:
I have been using this system for about 5 months. I am not one to get acne on my face all the time but I do (or did) get it every now and then and when it came it took forever to get rid of it, so that was my reason for trying this system.
I started out as a #3 on the skincare system, the way you determine your number is by taking a short test on their website (http://www.clinique.com/) or by talking to a clinique specialist at any clinique counter. So depending on the answers you give they'll assign a specific system to match your skin needs.
So, like I said, I started out as a number 3 because of the amount of pimples I would get and after using it for about 3 months I was changed to a number 2 because now I barely get any zits at all, if any!
I absolutely love these products, I know they are a bit pricey but worth every penny. I have gotten rid of my blemishes, even out my skin and I don't get break outs as easy anymore. Some of the other great improvements I've noticed are: I don't have to use concealer anymore (except for my undereye circles), I use half as much foundation, which means my foundation will last a lot longer and therefor I will save money (not really, I will just find something else to spend my money on, haha).
I give these products a 5 out of 5... I definitely recomend it!
