This post is imported from my old blog, so this includes an old post template. It has been edited some since the original post, but it still contains my full honest opinion on this product. Stay tuned for new content with a fresh new look.! :)
Today I am going to review a product I received for free to try through Crowdtap. This review is 100% my own and honest opinion on this product. I do not make a profit from any purchases you make from any of the links I include in this post, I just include them for your convenience to find out more about these incredible products. The product I received this time was Clinique’s 3-Step Skin Care System for Skin Type 2. Please continue reading to find out what I thought.!
So one really great thing about the 3-Step System with Clinique is that you can take a skin type quiz to figure out which products would be best for YOU and your skin concerns. They have something for everything and everybody, and want to make sure that you buy what YOU can use, not what just everyone can.! I had to take this quiz prior to receiving my sample so they'd be able to send me the correct system, but unfortunately I don't think I received the correct one for my skin type - NOT on their fault, completely by my own. You'll hear more about why I believe this happened later on, though.
I was SO excited to try this product out when I signed up for it, I'm always trying to find something that will help me with my skin care concerns so when I saw this, I jumped at it.! The face wash and cleansing lotion leave your skin feeling absolutely amazing.!
- As I mentioned above, the system is for YOUR skin type, Not everyone else's.!
- The 3 Step System hits all your skins needs in one system, no need to buy a million different products.!
- Prices are very fair for such an advanced and well working product.!
So my first impressions with the face wash were that I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT.! It leaves me feeling so clean.! The second step to the system, which is the Clarifying Lotion, leaves my skin feeling amazing. If I was ment to stop there, I'd be pleased and ready to take on the world. But, there is a third step to the system, which is where I think I did my quiz incorrectly and got the wrong skin type - I recieved the Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+™ - which, when I use on most of my face, leaves me feeling very sticky and oily. I've started only using it in certain areas (like over my cheeks, on my nose, and through/in between my eyebrows) and it's helped with cutting down the oily look a lot, but it's still very sticky feeling on my skin. I don't think I really needed much moisturizing, so I think I made a mistake with my quiz, and I'm closer to a Skin Type 3.
I wasn't the absolute best about doing the system twice a day as it instructs to, I tried to do it twice daily, but sometimes tiredness just got the best of me and I'd fall asleep before doing the second go (which, those nights I was lucky if I took my makeup off, some nights I didn't even make it that far.) I don't know if this made a huge impact on how well the system the worked for me or not, but I personally didn't see any major differences in my skin since using this system compared to my normal $4 face wash. Again, this could entirely be due to receiving the wrong system, but I will say, I will definitely still be using the first two steps of this until they run out because I felt they worked the best, and if I'm feeling particularly dry I will break the moisturizing lotion out as well. I would definitely still recommend this to friends and family, I'd just advise them to pay close attention to their quiz.!

So to wrap up today's review, I would give the Clinique’s 3-Step Skin Care System
❤ ❤ ❤ 3 out of 5 beating hearts.! ❤ ❤ ❤
Parts of it worked better for me than others, and for those two products on its own I think it'd receive a 5/5, but I really disliked the Step 3 product I received and I feel it made a difference on how well this worked for me.!
