Summary
Clinique's Clarifying Face Lotion 4 is a dermatologist-developed exfoliating lotion for oily skin. It sweeps away excess oil that can lead to breakouts.
Benefits
- Skin Types: Oily
- Sweeps away pollution, grime, dulling flakes, and excess oil to reveal smoother, clearer-looking skin.
- Preps skin for moisturizer - exfoliated skin is more receptive to hydration and treatment products.
- For oilier skin types, twice-daily exfoliation helps minimize excess oil and keep pores clear.
- Dermatologist developed and tested
- Allergy tested
- How does Clarifying Lotion fit into your skincare routine? Clarifying Lotion is Step 2 in Clinique’s 3-Step skincare system. Cleanse with Facial Soap, exfoliate with Clarifying Lotion, moisturize with Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+, oil-free Gel, lightweight Jelly, or rich Cream.
- Clarifying Lotion 1.0: Extra-gentle, alcohol-free formula is safe for sensitive skin.
- Clarifying Lotion 1: Mild for very dry skin.
- Clarifying Lotion 2: Gentle for dry combination skin.
- Clarifying Lotion 4: Formulated for oily skin.
- Did you know Clinique’s exfoliating lotion is different from a toner?
- Toners are primarily used to help rebalance skin after cleansing. Clinique Clarifying Lotion is formulated with exfoliating ingredients to help remove dead cells on skin’s surface. Clearing away that debris with Clarifying Lotion makes skin more receptive to moisturizer and treatment products.
Key Ingredients
- BHA (salicylic acid): Helps clear and unclog pores.
- Witch hazel: Helps refine skin.
Research Results
- Clinique's Clarifying Lotion face exfoliator instantly delivers clinically proven benefits* for skin that:
- Looks more radiant.
- Looks smoother.
- With less-noticeable pores.
- *Clinical testing on 31 men and women.

LOVE IT! Best ever toner for Oily Skin
I love this product! I have VERY oily skin and have used several toning products. All claim to minimize the appearance of oily skin, but only Clinique has lived up to it's claim. It's the only product that has kept my skin looking oil free throughout the day. I will use this toner forever. It really...

My go to
I have been using this level for over 3 years. It helps cleaning my pores and reduce my acne. I have gotten my teen age daughter using Lotion 4 as well. I use this after I wash my face and I have to saturate the cotton ball and gently run on my facial skin
I like it

186 / 5.000 , FEEL SO MUCH BETTER AND MY MAKEUP DOESN'T LOOK FLAKY LIKE IT DID BEFORE I USED THE PRODUCT. IT FEELS NICE AND HAS NO FRAGRANCE WHEN YOU APPLY IT.
Amazing product, highly recommend. my favorite!
absolutely wonderful product! I have very sensitive skin and it only occasionally has a mild or minimal redness or sting with it. it does have a heavy alcohol scent but when you see how well this product works none of that will matter to you. not only does it help my EXTREMELY oily skin stay plump but oil free throughout most of the day, it also will help take off any grime or dirt you didn't wash off your face before. I'm going ro be buying this for the foreseeable future. it is my favorite and the best working skin care product I have.
So far so good.
Definitely cleans away excess oil and dirt without drying out my skin.
