Review subject
I had just started hearing about the BB creams in all of my magazines. I was super excited to finally try one out for the first time. I got a sample of this one from Clinique and thought that maybe my redness reducing foundation from themt might have a run for its money. I couldn't have been more wrong. The consistency was very thick and did not blend well. It seemed to show every imperfection in my skin which I didn't expect. I might give my sample to a friend or family member and see if it could possibly work for them, but I personally wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Very very sad especially from a company as wonderful as Clinique — 1 year, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 8 of 10 people said helpful

Very Thick and Heavy
This was my first BB cream I attempted to wear and it was a disappointing experience. I went to Sephora and one of the employees tried this cream on me. It was very heavy and very thick and although it was not drying or irritating, I would not purchase it, nor recommend it for anyone. — 1 year agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 5 people said helpful

Subpar performance
I am so disappointed with this product. I had been reading about BB creams and really wanted to try one out. The idea of using just one product really appealed to me so I decided to try it out. The color selection is not great at all. They only have a few shades to choose from. I decided to go with a medium shade. The consistency of this is really thick. I know thats how BB creams are supposed to be but this one just seemed tacky like. The coverage was horrible. I've had tinted moisturizers that cover better. I put it on and waited a few minutes for it to set. It never really did. It just kind of sits on your face without soaking in. It left a really unattractive shine. I tried blotting papers but they didn't help. Then I tried to set it with powder and it seemed to look worse. By this time I would have finished my normal face routine, so much for saving time.. I tried it for 3 days. No luck. Just looked like my skin with a shiny residue on it. Then I thought to use it as a primer and the last few days it seems to work much better. I did notice I had a small breakout but I'm not 100% sure it was the BB cream or the Payday bar I had as a snack at work (peanuts make me break out BAD) I suppose I will use it as a primer until I finish it. At least it has SPF 30. Thats the main reason for the 3 stars. I really wished I could have loved it because I have loved a lot of Clinique products but this one is a no-go. I would not recommend to anyone. $42 down the drain. Boo. — 1 year, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 8 of 13 people said helpful
