Does it expire? How long is it good for?
- Asked by Robin
- Official Answer By Clinique USSome products include a Period After Opening (PAO) number (which shows a number followed by “M”) that indicates the number of months within which an opened product should be used or replaced. Once a product is opened and used, its integrity can be affected by such things as exposure to environmental conditions or from contact with the user’s skin. If a product is not fully used following that time frame, we suggest replacing it in order to assure product integrity.Was this answer helpful to you

- Q
I bought a big kit from Ulta that included -Clinique smart Clinical repair correcting serum, -Clinique all about eyes, -Clinique 7 days scrub, and -Clinique Moisture surge. Can you please tell me when I should use each of these and in which order? Also for the scrub, should I wash my face and make up with that? Or should I use something else to wash my face and then use the scrub maybe once a week?? My routine is to put cremes on my face in the morning, put Clinique makeup on, and then leave everything as is until I wash my face at night, then I apply another creme for bed. But I want to use these for now.
- Asked by Katherine
- Official Answer By Clinique USThank you for asking. We are happy to provide you with the order of products to use. Clinique 7 Day Face Scrub Cream Rinse-Off Formula should be used 2-3 times per week on a makeup-free face prior to cleansing. You can choose to fit that into your schedule AM or PM. AM and PM we recommend that you Cleanse, Clarifying Lotion, Serum, and Moisturizer. Use your makeup remover prior to cleansing in the PM and your SPF after your moisturizer in the AM. We invite you to stop in-store where a Beauty Associate would be happy to provide application tips and tricks tailored to your skincare goals. Be sure to let us know what you think!Was this answer helpful to you

I've been very pleased with the results of this serum. After about 2 weeks I noticed that my forehead looked smoother and the pores on my cheeks less noticeable. Of course, nothing will make the lines disappear, but overall this does makes them seem less deep and smoother.
Expensive but well worth it!
This whole line of Clinique Smart is great! It actually works! It's not cheap, but well worth it. I am 45 and I have noticed a huge difference in the wrinkled around my eyes, and other places on my face. I will continue to use this product!
My go-to retinoid for my extremely sensitive rosacea skin
My skin reacts to everything - vitamin c, niacinamide, AHAs, you name it. This product having HPR/granactive is a game changer because it's much more gentle but still very effective. I still had to ease into using it every day but now I can with no problem. I always follow it up with a good moisturizer to keep my skin barrier healthy.
Like this in so many ways.
I couldn't find anything I liked before. The employees helped me when I told her what I was looking for and not. I am 57 yrs old but been told I don't look my age I look younger. I feel like this has given me everything I was looking for wit something that didn't cause me to breakout yes at my age and help with aging skin and not kill my bank account. I wanted a brand that was easy with a system. But it had to work and without burning my skin, I'm very sensitive and without a order, and without over oily feeling that I would stay with and this has done all that. I found it worked in a short time also. I was showing dryness lines and wrinkles around my eyes and jaw line and within a couple weeks I was surprised. I now understand why I saw my mom using this brand my lifetime. Now two generations are using the brand. Thank you.

I have only been using this serum for a couple of weeks and so far I like the product. It is not watery like most serums. It is thick and creamy and feels good afterward on my skin. It is moisturizing and gives my skin a glow. Since I haven't been using it for a long time yet I am not sure if it is making a difference in my wrinkles. I do think the one on my forehead is improving but it is suddle and not sure if it is in my head. I would by again
