the normal clinique 3 step systems are for already clear faces that juss have trouble balancing there skin type..this one is specialized for those with acne
@kim103live no I stop using because I don't have money to buy it :( it's $50.00 and I don't work :( so I'm waiting to buy it again and the worst part is that it's starting to come back :'(
do you know whats the difference between this product, and the normal clinique 3 step system with Liquid Facial Soap, Clarifying Lotion, and Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion?
@comegetmyxlove Yea the soap on the acne system is a foam with salicylic acid & the toner also has salicylic acid as well as an ingredient that keeps the acne bacteria from spreading to other parts of your face. Then the acne lotion mainly dries your skin but shrinks the acne by drying it. The regular clinique 3 step doesnt have any acne medications.
The "Clarifying Lotion" IS NOT A TONER!Most toners are nothing but water and some perfume ! The clarifying lotion does so much more than a toner does! The clarifying lotion stimulates cell turnover, helps clear pimples, large pores and EXFOLIATES! The clarifying lotoion ALSo prepares the skin for the moisturizer. Heres a fun thing to do! Wipe moisturizer over hand. see how its soapy? Nowuse Clarifying lotion and put on the moisturizer! It lathers in better for a proper balance of water and oil!
heyy i been using this for ab 3 weeks now and been getting me break outs is it true dat its getting the shit out lol likk it says did this happen with yu? nd whn yu think its ganna stop??
@mexmel I agree..its been 17 days for me..and it worked the first 3 days and now again i started having breakouts after continuous use of it....don't know if its worth using anymore?....
although the toner aka step 2 does smell kinda strong and the lotion aka step 3 does dry out certain parts of my face, I actually still really like this product. I used to get acne (which wasn't that bad) but after using this product (over half a year now) I must say my face looks very clear. and i used to have acne scars on my chin too and now they're gone. i also use cetephil lotion as a personal 4th step because of the drying lotion (3rd step). hopefully this works for others too.. :D
This Acne Solution is very drying but works well for controlling oil. So it suits well for oily skin pple. However, I would once in a while switch to something more mild as the dryness feels slightly uncomfortable. But well...it does clear my skin and I am still using it. Hail Clinique!
i now have the third one, but it's reaaaally taut (is that how you say it in english, well it's like so dry that it's sort of pulling my skin) and i have the feeling that it isn't helping. it was at first, but now it's just getting worse because it dries my skin. but i just wanted to know.. does stepping down help? because, well.. it's a lot of money and it's not like they'll be honoust about that in the store..
Hi guys! I've been using Clinique's Acne Solution 3 step program since October and my skin is so much better. It works but it does take a while and it did dry my skin out. (a lot!) So this is what i did: I got the 7 day scrub (deflakes) & used it before the cleanser and i only used the "moisturizer" they gave me every other day. Clinique told me THAT'S what dries you out. Get their dramatically different lotion and use that after everything :) Not too much though!
Has it been working for you since the video? I bought it today & i just used it but the girl at the clinque counter said that i can try it for 2 weeks and if it doesnt help i could return it
i LOVEEEE acne solutions. I switched from the foam to bar though. It's much better. I also use clarisonic and this match cleared me in a month. i don't break out now but i still use it.
ya hey guys i tryed proactive and get this im allereic to benezol peroixde its really hard to find stuff with just salicyic acid hows is this clinique i have heard it is good and want to try it but i need to kno does the type 2 have benezol peroxide in it? thanks
i've been using this for about maybe a week now and i think step 2 smells kinda harsh sometimes and it kinda dries out my cheeks and chin area...but hopefully this works out for all of us who is using it because yes it is not that cheap. lol
yes, for me step 3 was the one that dried my chin area but know is not but this product works it has controlled my acne(still have red acne spots) but if I don't use them it comes back :(
i am not sure where your from but there is a product called perfect skin it is a vitamin that u take once a day and it clears your acne in about 4 weeks or your money back it is not expensive at all about 30 dollars and it is made by genuine health
In about 2 weeks it started to work for me it clear all my acne only could see scars sometimes it came like 1 or 2 pimples but after applying it was gone. but I don't have the cleansing foam don't have the money yet and it started appearing again like in the picture :(
You can buy a starter kit for this system which is cheaper than buying the full size bottles. The starter kit should last a month and this way you can try it out and see if it works without having to spend money on the entire full size bottles. I just got the starter kit so i'm going to try it out and see how it works. the starter kti is 42 dollars canadian. if you are in the usa its probably cheaper. if you are in a different country than i hear its more expensive.
I don't know...I just got mine around 1 week ago and It is kind of helping, but right now I don't know anymore...it seems like they are coming back(while using it) I sometimes think that this line is not enough to prevent acne. I tried Proactiv also but that as just too strong. UGH
I have it and LOVE it, but sometimes it dries me out so I switch the Acne solutions moisturizer for Clinique's Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel
when you used this did the kit make your skin turn red and irritated?
