I'm super obsessed and so happy this was made
I have already gone through like 3 bottles of this. So maybe the only negative is I wish there was more product in the bottle. But this is the product of my dreams that I have been looking for. I love clinique serum foundation, I've used it for years, but after getting sun damage for the first time ...

Love the Skincare Benefits!
I received this product free of charge in exchange for my unbiased review. I absolutely love that this is a vitamin-rich foundation with SPF 45! I was so excited to try it because it sounded like it would be so nourishing for my skin. I really like that the coverage is buildable and the way it feel...

Better than my way more expensive luxe brand
I'm 51. I've been looking for an SPF foundation for our upcoming cruise. I dint expect to like it really because I have sun damage spots and usually i have to get medium to full to cover my spots. I also now have issues with the way foundation like to hang out in the creases of my wrinkles. This is perfection. It keeps my skin hydrates, doesn't dry me out, doesn't hang out where it shouldn't. I look like I'm not wearing makeup. I told a coulle of teens how old I am a few days ago and their jaws dropped. They said I look 20. So I will return the bottle I just bought of my old foundation in favor of this. It really is fantastic on very dry, mature skin.
LOVE!!!!

I've been searching for years for a foundation to replace my favorite Even Better Glow (discontinued), and this is IT! I love it. It's beautiful and exactly what I've been looking for. Light, easy to apply, beautiful finish, just enough coverage, does not settle into fine lines and wrinkles, and I couldn't be happier! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Clinique!!!!
I will not buy this again
I am so tired of companies changing their formula. I loved my old clinique foundation. Not sure why they change something that was an excellent product. I am very dissapointed.
Not a foundation
This product is extremely lightweight and does not cover like a foundation. It would have been better to name it a, "skin tint." It is HORRIBLE for blending. I do skin prep (spf and the tachata mist). I have ALWAYS had piling from this product. I even went bare faced and had issues.
Very light coverage, doesn't help with redness
I tried this thinking it'd be great for me, I don't like a heavy foundation but want something for every day wear to cover up redness and not dry out my skin. It is super light which I like but it's actually TOO light - it's doing less than a tinted moisturizer I have. So not helping with redness. My biggest issue is that it creates a residue (I think from the SPF, it showing up kind of white). I have used a Clinique Matte foundation before and loved it but this isn't for me.
