Can I use this product with the moisture surge serum?
- Asked by Katie
- Official Answer By Clinique USMoisture Surge Active Glow Serum and Smart Clinical Repair AM/PM Retinoid Balm both accelerate the skin's natural cell renewal, so we do not recommend layering the two. If using both, we recommend alternating these serums—using one in the morning and the other at night.Was this answer helpful to you

Clinique Smart Clinical Repair AM/PM Retinoid Balm I received this Clinique Retinoid Balm from #Clinique and #Influenster, in return for my honest and unbiased review. It comes in this pretty metallic purple tube. The balm twists up like a lipstick, and is small enough to carry in your pocket or h...

Silky on my skin, easily glides on and sinks in
I applied AM/PM Retinol Balm every time I washed my face on the crows feet and between brows (frown and bunny lines….it's not as cute as it sounds). The stick is the size of a lip balm. It makes a perfect retinol for traveling. There was no scent, and I did not experience any reactions. The solid ...

Works well, but packaging is not good

I've been using this on my forehead lines for a few months and have been seeing some results. However, there is as much product that can be applied as stuck in the tube. Once you use all the product and cannot twist anymore up. There is a ton still left in the tube. I've been digging it out either my fingernail, but what a waste! Either add a way to push up the product in the tube or put it in a pot.
What is this?

I have an Italian scowl and at 60 years old, I thought I'd try this little stick... It did help a bit and so I tried it on a few more fine lines around my smile on my cheeks. But then began to notice dark ugly lines wherever I applied this stuff... No bueno! Stopped using and the ugly darkness left the building... God is all I need, not this stuff!
Very moisturizing vit A

This is very moisturizing and soft. I can even use it on my lips. It acts slow and securely. It would be too much for oily skin.
Great product
Yall, if you are not giving this product 6 months to work then you are definitely gonna be disappointed because ALL retinol products need time.. a lot of time. It doesn't work in 2 weeks so don't expect it too.. If someone says they saw great results in 2 weeks its not the retinol it is the fact that they had dryer skin and started using this and the higher moisture content made a difference.. I have been using this for a year regularly and it definitely has made a difference. Young people want to apply it a few times and if they don't see quick results they automatically say oh no, this doesn't do anything for me!! It will… give it time.
It's ok, hard to tell... Let me explain

I use this balm at the end of my skin care routine to really hyper focus on problem areas like my 11s, forehead wrinkles, and the find lines on the sides of cheeks by my mouth. It seems to work ok but I got it in December for Christmas and I'm already out by the time I wrote this on February 5th. I only use it 1x a day and don't go ham with it so having it only last about a month is a disappointment. It's also not long enough to really tell if it's beneficial. I might switch to a different brand/balm but keep some of my other Clinique staples in rotation.
