Comments about Clinique Superbalanced Makeup:
I've been using Clinique since high school (20ish years) and nothing compares to Clinique. I look like I'm still in my 20s. It has truly been my go to and I'll never use anything else. And I'm an esthetician! So love your skin and buy this! :)

Comments about Clinique Superbalanced Makeup:
When I first started using this I loved it. It goes on like silk, then I use a damp beauty blender to blend it, otherwise it would be a little streaky. It doesn't exacerbate my hormonal acne and feels really light on my skin. It also doesn't show any dry patches on my really dry skin or irritate my very sensitive skin. But then my acne got worse (nothing to do with the product) and it was barely covering anything other than evening out my flushed skintone. I also started to notice that even with a setting powder it barely lasted more than a few hours before it started getting really shiny and splotchy. The coverage is good if you have relatively good, clear skin already, but not good for angry red acne or fresh acne scars. I'm on my second bottle and only use it if I'm not going to be out long. Give it a try though as it seems to be a kind of hit or miss product. On days when I need good, long lasting coverage I use Estee Lauder's Double Wear Stay in Place Makeup
