Review:
Clinique's Even Better Clinical Skin Tone Corrector ($64.20) is formulated with a blend of 5 ingredients that collectively are labelled as CL-302 complex. The blend of 5 natural ingredients consists of exotic plant extracts, along with salicylic acid, Vitamin C and black yeast. The combination of these ingredients, as with the several other antioxidants included, will results in brighter and more even-toned skin. As with all other Clinique products, it is Allergy Tested, 100% Fragrance Free, Oil-Free, Non-Acnegenic, Dermatologist Tested and Ophthalmologist Tested.
Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Corrector is packaged in a pump jar, which will protect the ingredients and prevent contamination, and is a gel-lotion that feels light and silky on the skin. True to Clinique's heritage, Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Corrector offers visible results in a gentle forumla. This lightweight, layerable serum can be used for extended periods of time without the irritation, redness, dryness and uneven blotches some prescription lightners may cause. Instead, skin is left silky, smooth and soft. One pump will cover your entire face, and using this product twice daily will last you 3 months.
Because Even Better Clinical Skin Tone Corrector is lightweight, and absorbs almost immediately, you can then follow with your regular night time moisturzier, such as an antioxidant-packed moisturiser for increased anti-ageing benefits. Pairing Even Better Clinical Skin Tone Corrector with an AHA or BHA products will produce great results as they provide exfoliation benefits to helps normalise cell turnover and assist in the fading of pigmented skin cells for renewed clarity and brighter skin. An improvement is skin clarity and radiance was noticeable within 2 weeks of using this product, and over time my skin has become more even-toned and uniformly lighter.
Verdict:
This is a wonderful moisturiser for those with combination - oily skin looking for a light-weight moisturiser. This product is also suitable for sensitive skin, thanks to its fragrance-free formula and skin soothing ingredients. It is also suitable for dry skin as a serum used under your daily sunscreen and nightly moisturiser. I would like to point out that I do not have pigmentation or hyper-pigmenation, I do however have some freckles along the bridge of my nose. Clinique's Even Better Clinical Skin Tone Corrector did not lighten my freckles but it did leave my skin soft, moistursied and more even-toned. It has also faded some recent blemishes from picking at pimples. You will experience great results from using Clinique's Even better Clinical Dark Spot Corrector, notably smooth, radiant, brighter and even-toned skin, however, those with hyperpigmentation issues should consider a product with hydroquinione. For optimal and visible results, it is also highly recommened that you pair this product with an AHA/BHA or a Retinol product at night. Overall, for those of us wanting brighter, radiant and even-toned skin, this product will deliver!
