"I love Clinique products because they are hypoallergenic and the products are allergy-tested and free of fragrance. To me, this means that even more people can benefit, as potential allergens and irritants in various products limit their utility in those with sensitive skin. Furthermore, this moisture surge concentrate can be used under makeup or before bed to literally add a surge of moisture without the grease! Plus, it includes antioxidants!"

"This is an amazing product for a variety of reasons. An enzyme (papain) exfoliates the skin, thus eliminating the potential for small abrasions or cuts from using physical exfoliants. Furthermore, being in powder form helps the product last longer (as it is concentrated without water), removes the need for preservatives and makes for easy travel (think TSA 3-1-1)."

"With a broad-spectrum SPF 25 to help protect from damaging UVA/UVB rays, this is my go-to color correcting primer to help even out my complexion and give me a glowing radiance before applying my makeup. It is oil-free, so it can be used by even those with acne-prone skin."
