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 ...

I'm not so much familiar with Clinique skin care products besides one of my favorite clearing gel. About this Retinoid balm I was using.. I did not see any difference too much so far. I think I will have to go thru the product to actually see the difference if any. I'm not a fan of the purple packaging to be honest. But I really like the balmy texture. It's super easy to use, doesn't do any mess, doesn't irritate my skin and the application is very smooth. Doesn't have any fragrance. I'm giving 3* because the product is really easy to use (you don't have to touch the product) so you can use it basically on the go if you need to. I just didn't see the difference YET!

Clinique's retenoid balm is mildly scented and has the consistency of a lip balm. It's too thick for the fine lines around my eyes but has minimized the wrinkles on my neck. It works well on those, and the lip balm-type tube makes it simple to apply. I will likely buy more when this runs out.

I received this free from Influenster for an honest review. I used this for 3 weeks around my lips and eyes and did not notice my fine lines changing but it did make my skin smoother. There is no scent and it glides on very easily.

I received this product for free from influenster and Clinique in exchange for my honest review. So I'm 27, with very sensitive skin. This retinol balm stick did not irritate my skin or cause any burning by my eyes when I applied under my eyes. So that's a huge plus. This absorbed well for me, it stays balmy for a while but my skin soaks it in which I really like. As far as effectiveness.. I haven't noticed any difference, but it's possible I haven't used it long enough. I use tretinoin once a week so I use this twice a week as well. This also has no scent at all.

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.
