Summary
Clinique Even Better Clinical Brightening Moisturizer hydrates as it helps visibly improve multiple dimensions of discoloration.
Benefits
- All Skin Types
- Clinique's first-ever moisturizer with CL302 Brightening Complex helps visibly improve multiple dimensions of discoloration: dark spot contrast, dark spot intensity, dullness, and redness caused by irritation.
- Deeply hydrates, leaving skin feeling comfortable and soft.
- Refines skin's texture so it feels smoother.
- Calms and soothes skin to visibly reduce redness caused by irritation, which could trigger future dark spots.
- Formula facts: Oil-free. Non-acnegenic. Fragrance free. Allergy tested. Dermatologist tested
- Built on Dermatological Science: As a dermatologist-guided brand, Clinique's commitment to safety starts with skincare science. Clinique partners with the best minds in dermatology and formulate for all skin types, tones, concerns - in service of all skin.
Key Ingredients
- CL302 Brightening Complex: Helps treat the look of dark spots with:
- Salicylic acid: Gently sloughs off the uppermost layers of the skin to help reveal fresher, more even-looking skin.
- Glucosamine: Helps weaken the bonds that hold dead skin cells together to encourage the exfoliation of surface discoloration.
- Yeast extract: Clinique's "cluster buster" helps break up (exfoliate) large clusters of excess pigmentation.
- Vitamin C (ascorbyl glucoside): Potent brightening antioxidant helps visibly reduce dark spots.
- UP302 (dimethoxytolyl propylresorcinol): A targeted brightening molecule inspired by border silver, or dianella ensifolia, a botanical known in traditional Chinese medicine for its antioxidant properties.
- Plus, other powerful ingredients, which include:
- Gyokuro (camellia sinensis leaf) extract: A green tea harvested with a special method in Japan that helps quell the look of irritation, which can trigger future dark spots.
- Hyaluronic acid: This moisture-binding ingredient helps create a "moisture reservoir" for ideal hydration.

So happy to have this back!
I always liked this product, but then there was a disappointing substitute for it sold in a pump bottle that was not nearly as productive on my skin. The first night I used it, I woke up with a better result than I remembered! I use it as a night cream and the best I've used after tries with oth...

Ugh
Read the reviews. Even though I did, I still wanted to give this a try but only purchased the 0.5 oz. Whew! I don't mind that this update doesn't have SPF. I prefer moisturizers without SPF since it's never high enough so I always layer SPF over it. Also I find that SPF in some moisturizers make it...

Irritation

I've been searching for a moisturizer recently that would prevent me from drying out. I've got extremely dry skin and as a result, it flakes. I applied this moisturizer on my whole face today and it resulted in a terrible reaction. After a few minutes I started getting red, then accompanied a terrible glow. My other moisturizer makes my skin look plump and more even, however, this moisturizer caused me to look uneven and irritated. In addition, it gave me acne. I wouldn't advise others to avoid it, but I don't reccomend individuals whom are senstitive or acne prone. Moreover, though it isn't sticky, I am able to sense that it is there, compared to my other moisturizer which is in pure liquid form (given by my esthetician). I think it's best for individuals whom are less sensitive, aren't acne prone, isn't oily, and doesn't get irritated by it's ingredients.
Moisturizes with a small amount

The Even Better series is my morning routine for more than a year now. When Clinique improved the moisturizer I was happy it wasn't as sticky as the one with the SPF. I hate how any SPF product just gives your face an extra unneeded shine. This one is a good moisturizer for those who need it. Me I use it to complete the Even Better series and make my face brighter and clearer. Just use a small amount.

I have been a Clinique customer for years and have used many of their moisturizers. I don't understand what happened with this formula but I would really like my money back. Like other customers have said, it flakes off, regardless of whether I wear tinted moisturizer on top or not. If I merely touch my skin, the product peels off hours after applying. This is not the quality I have come to expect from Clinique.

I've been using this cream for a month and have noticed a drastic difference in the texture of my skin. I'm 48 and the skin around my eyes looks more youthful and bright. After a few weeks use, my skin looks glowing and moisturized. Brown spots and freckles have lightened
Please bring back the regular Clinique Smart
This doesn't work at all. The Clinique Smart (in the silver container) was amazing! I get that retinol is the popular thing, but not everyone needs it or can use it.
