Most Helpful Positive Review Husband's Skin After years of letting him try and use what he wanted on his face. Since he turned 40 I started trying different skin products for men until I stopped by Clinique. The search ended we had out products! I explained to my husband that Clinique is truly the best for anyone especially people with sensitive skin. His skin looks great and it just adds to how handsome he is!
Most Helpful Critical Review Thought it would be great... it sucked The only problem I have with my skin is that it's very oily. My pores are naturally very small and my skins not too prone to breaking out unless I'm eating lots of oily food or not drinking enough water. After the first use I loved this, it left my face matte and helped clear up a couple pimples i had at the time. A few days later however i noticed that my pores had gotten bigger so to give the product a fair chance i stopped using it to see if my pores would shrink again, in case it was a diet thing, and then go back to it. After about a week I started using the face wash again and not only did my pores get bigger again but, my skin had started to peel, and my skin was much more susceptible to breaking out ( I've watched a line of four huge pimples grow on my cheek overnight and my forehead get covered with smaller ones). This is my second Clinique oil control product that has completely flopped for me and I don't plan on buying another from them.
Reviewed by 63 customers Recently Reformulated 1
Jeffery from MI
The Oil Control Face Wash has been reformulated earlier on in 2020 -- one of the biggest differences is that the ingredient menthol has been removed. This can be confirmed in the updated ingredient listing for this product as well as speaking directly with a Clinique representative both online and in their New York offices -- which is exactly what I did in November of 2020.
While I'm in favor of removing menthol, Clinique is still sending out the older versions of this item with that ingredient in it. My most recent order confirms this as well. I'm quite anxious to try this updated version and after calling Clinique directly, as well as several Clinique counters, nobody has a clue as to when the updated version will actually be the one a customer receives when placing an order.
Really, Clinique?!
Husband loves it! 5

Best Men's Face Wash Oil Control 5
RodPhx from Phoenix
My husband has been using it for the last 5 years since I have introduced it to him and it was love at first "use".
Essential Cleanser 5
Brando from Tempe, AZ
Great everyday cleanser. Good for basic face cleaning without all the gimmicks. Cleans easily and makes my face feel super pure without being dry. I would compare it to their version of a dermatologist recommended cleanser like Cetaphil or Neutrogena but this one is way better! It doesn't bother me at all since it is allergy-tested and fragrance-free. That is one of the big pulls I have to Clinique. I think we take it for granted that we can all use all of their products that actually give results while not being worried about any sort of reactions! Love it.

It keeps my skin in good condition every day.
Great product 4
krnguy from Los Angeles, CA
This definitely helps with oil control for my normal skin. Doesn't dry my skin much at all and cleans very well. I will probably continue to use Clinique's product.
I will continue to buy this product! 5

Great cleanser 5

Product works 3
Allysmom74 from San Jose, CA
I bought this product for my 14yo son to use. It has helped control his oily skin. His skin is clear and fresh. But my issue is with the cap design, it's held together with a cheap piece of plastic and broke off quite easily. His bottle is now without a cap. Please design pump bottles for the men's line.
Top breaks every time 3
CorgiMom from Florida
This is the 3rd time we've purchased a men's line product. The way the top is designed to connect to the bottle is not by screwing on which would make sense. It connects by a thin piece of plastic. After a few times of my husband flipping the top open, the entire top breaks off. It's a terrible design and leaves the product without a top. It's better for men to stick to the regular line with pump bottles than this flawed disaster.

Best Face Wash Ever! 5
JayMatt from NJ
I don't write reviews, but for this I had to. I've combo skin that got really oily around my t zone and cheeks even in winter. And I've a bit of rosiness on my cheeks. I've tried sooo many face washes, and all were either too drying, or didn't wash well enough and/or left behind a film. I was about to just give up and then I found clinique's men's oil control wash (so there's no confusion). With this my face is completely clean, no dryness, even in winter, no film, and my face is way less oily even when it's humid and hot. I don't use my blotting papers anymore. My rosiness even subsided. Totally recommend this. Thank you Clinique! Please please please continue to make this!

MikeC from USA
A good face cleanser for your summer time. I don't know anything about the oil control thing, because my face still need some oil afterall.
good product 5

nice
My husband loves this!! 5
mvpounders80 from Decatur, Alabama
I purchased the set (cleanser, toner and moisturizer) for my husband and it has done wonders for his skin! He is slick head bald with very oily skin, to where it looks like he shines his head, and this line has made it not be so greasy looking...only with a healthy glow! He had occasional breakouts before and they are minimal now. This has been a awesome item to add to his routine.
Great face wash. 5
Effiechen from NY
I like it.
Squeeky Clean! 4
EinsteinBrows from Colorado
Awesome, it felt like it actually took that pesky layer of oil off my face when I used it! Although I usually like an exfoliator, this is excellent for "off" days or for using as a mid-day cleanse if you need to reboot your face.
Lovely!!! 5
Vinz from Clark, NJ
Feels so clean in my skin though i have an oily skin which this product help to kill my oily skin it gives me a cool feeling after washing and i feel this works for me and no break outs at all...i recommend this product to follow with men's clinique oil control mattifying expoliating toner use this toner with cotton balls to cleanse more then to follow with the mattifying oil control moisturizer...ive been doing the routine mornings and nights...loving it...
Been Using 4 Years 5
Scott from Chicago, IL
I've been using this for several years now and it's part of my shower ritual. It's doesnt take much which makes it last awhile. I will buy this till they no longer make it or my death. Just sayin 🤷🏻♂️
Good!! 5
Stylizt from AL
I enjoy this product. It gets my skin nice and clean without being to harsh and drying my skin out. It came with a free sample of the face scrub and I love it. It's like it had a sandy texture like microdermabrasion sans. It's really fine. And it gives my fave a cool feeling while polishing away dead skin and pollution.
