No more dry skin!
I first received the original version of this moisturizer over the past couple of years with other Clinique purchases and liked it ok. I have tried store brand moisturizers of many kinds and my face still would be dry in the morning. And as I age my face seemed to be getting more and more dry. I saw...

NEW Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+
I have used Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion (DDML) for a couple of decades, and I loved it.....so why change something that doesn't need changing? I have never had any complaints and/or concerns about the outcome of my skin using DDML, but sad to say that has changed. I tried the DDML+ fo...

Long time favorite
This is the perfect day time moisturizer. I use it year round. It hydrates really well and is fast-absorbing plus it doesn't pill under make-up. Accessible price point. Love that a large size is available as it makes a significant environmental impact!
Clinique Moisturizer
I really like Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion. I have very dry skin and it does a great job of moisturizing my skin.
If it isn't broken….don't fix it ❤️
I got my first 3 step kit at 13 and ever since I've been taking care of my skin with Clinique. I've added the pink gel moisturizer and two prescription strength creams to my regimen but the 3 step stays the same. Cliniques 3 step is the basics you need to keep your skin barrier healthy and its worked for me over 25 years. My daughter will be getting her first 3 step on her birthday in Oct 2026. It gets you in a regular routine of cleaning and moisturizing your skin and it becomes a habit and you won't ever go to bed without cleaning your face. Well, I never did. Regardless of what was going on…..even those late night "study" sessions lol in college….It was such a habit, I never went to sleep without doing my 3 step. I keep this size in my gym bag so I always have it on me. Fabulous skincare for genuinely amazing skin!
Free facial moisturizer. Went back to buy more
I love this. It's great for your face ,especially in Colorado. Where the air is very dry. I have normal to dry facial skin and this works great for 4
I will buy this again.
I have used ALL of Clinique's skincare/makeup products for 50+ years and I surprise people, even medical doctors, by my age! Do yourself a favor and start it NOW!!
