Gentle enough for chemo skin!

I am currently being treated for leukemia, and chemo is really harsh on my skin. I get rashes and scabs and my skin dries and peels. My skin has also become super sensitive all over, so I've had to stop using my regular products and find something gentler. I remembered using Clinique when I was youn...

Refuses to remove eyeliner and mascara

I have been using Clinique for over 30 years, and noticed a lot of changes (and not very positive ones at that). "Take the Day Off," in the old days was only sold as a liquid and did a great job! Now, I have both liquid and cream and neither removes non waterproof mascara or eyeliner. You'd have to ...

Literally take the day off!

From S.P., CA

Ive been using this product for a long time. I use waterproof mascara and this product takes everything off. You have to apply the product on your face without water at first, thats how you will get rid of the makeup and after rubbing it all over your face thats when you rinse off.

Leaves my face beautifully soft.

From Southern California

I would only recommend this for dry skin. The secret: rub it between your fingers, then massage it thoroughly (not spread it) onto dry skin. Then take it off with a washcloth and A LOT of warm water. If you wipe it off like a cleansing cream, it will leave a lot behind.. Massaging and rinsing left my skin very soft. Love this!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
