Most Helpful Positive Review Customer for life! I have used Clinique products for a dozen-ish years now, and have no plans to ever change that. They are consistent, and my skin is clear. In the past, I have tried other things from time to time, but have always come back to Clinique because nothing compares.
Most Helpful Critical Review Clarifying #3 I have been using Clinique for years and am disappointed in the new Clarifying lotion #3 formula which appears to be a watered down version of the old formula.I'm oily and It doesn't exfoliate as well and you don't feel the tingle. I even stepped up to the #4 and it's slightly better but doesn't do as good a job. The original formulas were much better for oily skin.

Helped clear my acne 5
PurpleFlowers99 from MI
I LOVE this toner. I had been using a prescription regiment for acne for over a year with absolutely no results. Upon dumping all of my prescription topicals, I switched to 4 Clinique products that were recommended one of their online consultants. Clinique Oily Skin cleanser, Toner number 3, Acne Clearing Lotion, and Moisture Surge gel. My skin looks fantastic. At two weeks I saw a huge improvement and now it just keeps getting better and better. Thank you Clinique for beautiful products! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this product to anyone.

Won't go without it. It tightens my popes and makes my skin so much smoother.
Destroyed my skin 1
Alyssa from Texas
This product is a big no go for me. First of all, the smell is terrible. The smell alone is enough for me to not buy this product again. Second, I have the worst acne I've ever had since using this toner. I used this product for about a month. I had pretty good skin prior to using this. I've been trying to make a better skincare routine for myself for the sake of healthier skin (not being acne prone). This was the only new product I added to my routine. I would not recommend this product to anyone.
I literally buy this again and again 5
Breezy from Virginia
Absolutely recommend! I use this 1-2 times a day and it takes off so much oil and dirt from my face. Really cleanses and makes my face feel super smooth. I seriously keep buying this specific one, no other alternative has come even close. I seriously tell everyone to switch over to this toner, it's the best!

One of My Favorite Clinique Products 5
CRA from Portland, Oregon
I've been using this clarifying lotion for about 5 years, and it's one of the best products I've ever used on my skin. I so easily removes dirt, makeup, and anything left behind from the day. My skin always feels refreshed, clean, and ready for the next skincare step!
this is a surprise for me 5
Mari2809 from Georgia
The lotion has a good effect, tightens pores, dries out pores, removes redness, mattifies very well and removes oily sheen, does not dry the skin and prepares it for the application of the serum.
My skin really likes it :)
So smooth 5

It evens out my skin tone. 5

Broke my face out so bad… 1
Kay from Upstate NY
I wanted to love this so bad but after a week of consistently using this product my face broke out terribly and feels soo dry. It also began to burn my face after about a week as well smh. If you have sensitive oily skin, this product might not be the one for you
I thought my face was clean until I used Clarifying Lotion 5
Felicia G. from Philadelphia
I always thought my twice daily face washing was enough to clean my skin. But, one day after using Clarifying Lotion I was shocked by the dirt and makeup my cleanser left behind. It's excellent at removing stubborn dirt and oil that can cause breakouts. I love this product and will use it from now on. It's better than the witch hazel based astringent I previously used. Clarifying Lotion leaves my face feeling clean and refreshed.
Not Worth It 1
ALLIE from Indiana
I used this for literally two days and it's RUINED my face. My skin isn't even sensitive. I usually stick to natural products but for nostalgia's sake wanted to try this again after 15+ years. What a mistake. Redness all over, scaly skin - no thanks.
Perfect balance 5
Angel/Mittens from Dayton NV
I have used many types of toners. This one feels like the perfect balance for me. I have some clogged pores around the nose but the rest of my face is quite normal-not oily or dry. So…I wanted to use Lotion 3 for the nose area alone. It does not dry out the rest of my skin even though there is a substantial amount of alcohol in it. I can tell it's on my skin but it feels good. I will continue using it. The best clarifying lotion I have ever used. The additional cost ends up being less expense versus all those I've had to throw away. It comes in a very large bottle and little goes a long way.
Best step ever 5
Jec89123 from Texas
I have struggled with adult hormonal acne since my 20s, now 42. I take several Rx for it, but about 2 years ago they just weren't fully cutting it. I bought the clinique 3 step for oily skin on a whim because I was always on the hunt for something that worked. My search is over, this has really been the last part my skin needed. I knew about this since I was a teenager, but never tried it and I don't know why. I have my teenager using it now too. One more thing I'll add is the pump bottle is the best!
Great Product! 5
Meg1 from Minnesota
Great product. Will definitely buy again. Faces is clean and soft after use and isn't drying at all.
Not great for skin! It burns!! 1
Ellen from Chicago
This is just a bottle of pure alcohol. My skin and eyes immediately started burning when I attempted to use it. Alcohol is very drying for skin. So I suggest you do some research and find another product before buying this one.
