Superwonderful Makeup
I've found Superbalanced Makeup to be a truly wonderful product. The coverage is light, yet effective. It never collects in my skin creases, and keeps me looking fresh and lovely all day long. As a 53 year old professional, I don't have time to wonder if my makeup needs to be touched up before an af...

Something change with the formula of this product?
I have been using Superbalanced Makeup from Clinique since I have been in my 30's and loved it. For some reason now, the formula seems to be thicker and looks "mask- like". I asked the Clinique specialist at the store if she knew of it changing and she was not aware. When at Ulta the other day, anot...

Watery and thin

I have been using Superbalanced foundation for about a month and am not too happy. The foundation is watery and has left little drops on several tops, my counter and sink. It doesn't provide the coverage I'm used to, and I personally hate these glass bottles. They are a pain for traveling and I think it's one of the reasons they had to make the foundation watery… so it would pour out of the bottle. I loved Clinique's Stay-Matte Oil-Free Makeup and used it for years until it was discontinued. It had great coverage and came in a plastic tube which is great if you travel as much as I do. Doesn't weigh down your purse or take up much space. Sadly, i guess its time to find a new foundation brand.
Best foundation!

This is the best foundation and I have used it for over 15 years. I never write reviews but I don't know what I would do without this, including the color Petal. The color Petal is the only color, in any foundation, that works for my light, pinky skin. It it light, smooth, spreadable and has no sunscreen or skincare ingredients in it. It evens out my skin and does not irritate my rosacea . It does not settle in lines or pores. There are hundreds of foundations out there, and many have all sorts of irritating ingredients. I have tried others they try to sell in stores, but nothing compares to Super balanced. This is just good, basic foundation! I use a higher SPF in summer and adjust my moisturizer based on time of year. Everything layers perfectly. The bottle is perfect, just take what you need. Thank you Clinique for all your sensitive skin products!
Translucent isn't translucent
I like the power, but translucent isn't invisible, whatsoever. It's a light beige color, so it's completely visible over my foundation. Yuck.
