Living in hope

No, I don't recommend this

Formula good. Easy to apply but shade not well described. Medium light is quite orange and not flattering.

Lovely product

Originally posted on Clinique UK

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a really high quality product and has a lovely feel to it. It doesn't make your skin feel greasy and is very lightweight. Unfortunately, I do prefer a heavy coverage though due to the quality of my skin but I would wear it underneath a foundation, as it is calming, or on its own if I was staying home.

Makes my skin look lovely

Originally posted on Clinique UK

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have acne prone skin that gets dry due to medication. This balm went nicely over my skin and gave a nice subtle glow. The balm didn't stick to any dry skin which I wasn't expecting. I would definitely buy this again.

Shoked

Just what I've been searching for!

Originally posted on Clinique UK

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone with very dry, perimenopausal skin that flares up regularly, my usual foundations don't work for me anymore. I was sceptical on a balm as I have redness and I thought the coverage would be minimal. How wrong I was. The coverage IS light but buildable but the formula glides on my skin and evens out my skin tone so beautifully. It looks like my skin but better and I absolutely love it!

Fab Light Coverage

Originally posted on Clinique UK

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was pleasantly surprised with how much coverage this provides! Whilst it is light it easily hides imperfections and redness. Because its light, it feels lovely on the skin! Very breathable and allowed irritated skin time to calm. Overall a fab balm, will definitely purchase more.

Fantastic Foudation

Originally posted on Clinique UK

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I stopped using foundation a few yers ago, as my skin matured i found it difficult to apply smoothly and get the look i wanted. Daily calm is easy to apply to a smooth finish and I love that its buildable adding layers until you get the effect you are looking for. My complexion looks smoother and calmer.

The Perfect Lightweight foundation

Originally posted on Clinique UK

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's a little bit like if you mixed your fave primer/moisturiser with your foundation. Super lightweight on your skin and not heavy at all. Still has a very buildable coverage but good for summer wear on top of your spf

Ultra smooth

Easy and effective

Originally posted on Clinique UK

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For many years I have been using Clinique CC cream and this foundation balm is similarly light and easy to apply. I loved how quickly and easy it blended in with my skin tone. I felt that it covered really well my fine veins and acne scarring on my skin. This is a great product and I was so pleased with how well it lasted throughout the day but also it's so easy if and when I do want to touch up. I feel confident in the value of this product and would build it into my daily make-up routine.

If it lasted it would be amazing!

Originally posted on Clinique UK

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When you put this on the skin it feels beautiful. The cool sensation of the balm and the way it glides on is brilliant. It gives you really glowy hydrated and even skin. Sadly it lasted no time on my combo skin. It's such a shame as I really wanted to like this, but it became patchy and oxidised a little. I also preferred to apply with a brush as I hate the feel of foundation on my fingers and feel it was designed for application with your hands!
