Clinique is one of the oldest cosmetic brand in town. I've known Clinique since I was a teenager I think but I've only tried one or two products that time when my mom bought it for my, it's kinda pricey for a school girl right. I was so happy I got a chance to try many of Clinique skincare few years ago from facial wash, serum, eye cream and moisturizer, you can read my review here.
This time I'm back with my favorite Clinique products, and they are kinda new comers in Clinique family. I got them from Clinique few months ago, first was the serum and the rest were after last event at Centro Kuta, I chose the moisturizer and foundation. I've tested these products and now I'd like to share it to you.

Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Corrector & Optimizer
What It Is
Our clinical-strength serum visibly improves dark spots.
What It Does
Even Better Clinical Serum is proven to help reverse the appearance of dark spots and blemish marks. See a visibly brighter complexion. Soothing Optimizer keeps skin calm, helping it better resist future darkening. Both are dispensed from a dual-chamber bottle that separates each serum, preserving the purity and potency of the ingredients until right before application.
Key Ingredients / Technology
Our patented CL-302 Complex includes Vitamin C to help reduce the appearance of discoloration; advanced Brightening Yeast Blend to break up the appearance of dark spots; and encapsulated Salicylic Acid and Acetyl Glucosamine to exfoliate skin, speed departure of surface discolorations and enhance cell turnover. Optimizer features our Gyokuro Extract, a specially harvested Japanese green tea extract rich in antioxidants and anti-irritant properties.
Packaging
As you see, it has unique and fancy packaging. It's a pump bottle but there are 2 holes on it from 2 different bottles inside the transparent one for the serum and soothing optimizer. That's so thoughtful and unique.
Color, Texture and Scent
There are 2 serums inside and they have different color which is more transparent and whiter. Both has the same texture just like other serum, looks like a bit sticky but gives refreshing and matte feeling at the same time after getting absorbed by the skin. As like other Clinique's products, it doesn't really has scent. There's somehow a slight scent but not perfume, more like a fermentation scent which isn't disturbing and I don't really notice when using it.
Review
What I really love from Clinique is they are not sticky at all and absorbed really well. It makes my skin super smooth after using it and it gives a refreshing but matte finish and a bit moisturizing. However, I always put moisturizer after using it. I've used it a few weeks and I can see the difference on my acne scars, it's fading as time. Recommended!

Our enhanced formula gives skin an instant moisture boost. Delivers almost twice as much hydration at the end of the day than it did before.
Key Ingredients / Technology
New Auto-Replenishing Technology with caffeine helps trigger skin’s own rehydration system. Hyaluronic Acid fragments and Activated Aloe Water plump skin with moisture. A super-holding matrix of humectants and polymers help reduce water loss and seal in moisture.
Packaging
Just like the old version of moisture surge, this new one also has a classy glass bottle with silver lid. It's kinda a big jar and quiet heavy, but Clinique always has the travel size so you won't need to worry about it. The lid is kinda tricky because it leaves fingerprints easily on the lid.
Color, Texture and Scent
The color is so cute, it's a pinkish transparent gel and has ... scent.
Review
It's very moisturizing and refreshing at the same time. Love love love the finish! It's not sticky at all and perfectly absorbed into the skin. Even though it leaves matte finish but I can feel that my skin is moisturized enough and doesn't crack under foundation. My skin is normal dry btw. I really love this and so perfect for tropical hot weather like in Bali.
Beyond Perfecting Foundation + Concealer
Benefits: Moisturizing
Skin Types: All
A foundation-and-concealer in one for a natural, beyond perfected look that lasts 24 hours. Lightweight, moisturizing makeup covers thoroughly without clogging pores. Skin breathes comfortably, color stays true, even through sweat and humidity.
In 27 skin-perfecting shades (in Indonesia the shades aren't as many as 27)
Due to the rich pigment level that enhances this flawless coverage makeup, shades may appear deeper when first applied. Once blended completely and allowed to dry, Beyond Perfecting Makeup will melt into your skin for a Beyond Perfected flawless look. A little goes a long way!
Packaging & Applicator
The packaging is quiet fancy, slim and tall glass bottle with silver cap. It has big wand like concealer wand but much bigger. Many glass bottle foundation comes with no applicator so it's a pain to pour it out to get the right amount.
Color, Texture and Scent
I find that the shade ... matches my skintone so well. At Clinique, you can get free sample in jar and I got the sample first before finally in love with this product. For foundation, this is very lightweight and a little goes a long way. It doesn't have any fragrance scent, just like normal foundation scent if you know what I mean.
Review
I love how lighweight this is, not heavy at all and feels like my second skin. It's buildable and works as concealer as well, the applicator also helps a lot. The best way to blend it is using blender so it gives flawless finish. I love the result, and it doesn't crack at all. I have normal dry skin and this works well on my skin, giving the right moisture but matte at the same time. This is my first foundation from Clinique and I love it!
