My facial skin is sensitive dry to very dry. I have been using clarifying lotion 1. Would I be better off to use the clarifying lotion 1.0 alcohol free? Would that be less drying for my skin type? Thanks.

- Q
What is the difference between 1.0 and 1 of the clarifying lotion?
- Asked by Daisy Doll
- Official Answer By Clinique USSo glad you asked! Both sweep away dry, surface skin cells allowing moisturizer to be more effective. Clinique Clarifying Lotion 1 is best for very dry to dry skins. Clinique Clarifying Lotion 1.0 is alcohol free and works for all skin types. When using Clinique Clarifying Lotions, apply twice daily after cleansing. Apply with a 100% cotton ball. Sweep over your face only once for each application. Avoid the eye and lip area. Follow with serum and moisturizer.Was this answer helpful to you

- Q
Am I supposed to rise this product off my face after applying?
- Asked by megs
- Official Answer By Clinique USWe're so glad you asked. You do not rinse off the Clarifying Lotion 1.0. After cleansing, apply with a cotton ball and gently sweep once over the face/neck, avoiding the lip and eye areas. You would then continue on with a serum or moisturizer in your AM and PM routine. We look forward to hearing about your results.Was this answer helpful to you

Changed My Mind
I had written a review previously on this product that wasn't very flattering. It was based on a sample I received at my local Clinique counter. However, I think the consultant accidentally put a different (stronger) clarifying lotion in the container (or, perhaps it was contaminated in some way sin...

I realize writing this review is likely pointless - the old version of the mild clarifying lotion is gone, and never coming back. But just in case Clinique reads this review, I want them to know that the previous mild lotion was the only product I ever found that completely cleared up my acne and ga...

Serious Quality Issue
Verified Reviewer

I purchased it online. The product smelled fermented, like yogurt. After using it, I had breakouts all over my face. I have purchased and used this product a year ago and 01 worked best for my skin in the clarifying series. At first, I thought the ingredients have changed, but after getting serious reaction on my skin, I knew there is something wrong with the product. I ended up going to the dermatologist and paid over $700 for the ointments afterwards. I don't know if the product I received was happened to have a issues, but now I am scared to buy it at least online again and would never reccoment to anyone.

I have sensitive skin. Everything makes it react. For awhile I stopped using any clarifying lotion due to irritation. But then my skin missed that aaah feeling it gets when you apply it with a cotton ball. I prefer 1 but 1.0 is gentler so I use both on and off
Red, itchy patch after use

I just received this toner in my last order. I had been using it sparingly (once a day) for about a week. I always followed it with an application of Redness Solutions Daily Relief Cream. I woke up one morning and my face felt hot and itchy. I checked the mirror and I have a large, noticeable raised, red patch that feels bumpy and hot. I stopped using all products on my face and only rinsed with cold, filtered water. It has been 3 days and there has been no improvement.
Best exfoliator
I have extremely dry and sensitive skin and this is the only toner/exfoliator tgat has ever worked for my skin. It preps my skin great fir makeup and I even use it on my clients when I do a makeover because its the only thing that will help with patchiness.
Exception to a great formula

This product is formulated with so many ingredients that are beneficial for skin. My only challenge with it is the witch hazel because it irritates my dry sensitive skin. At age 70 my skin barrier is not as healthy as it could be, so it's easy for irritation to occur. There are many other Clinique products I am using that do help me, just not this one. Again, this is my response to the product. It may be fine for anyone else.
