Very cooling, good to put on after a long day out in the heat. Keeping it in the fridge is a "cool" idea (no pun intended). Not moisturizing, as seems to be the common complaint. I wouldn't buy it but it was a nice GWP.

I had no idea this product was discontinued. Anyway, this lotion was great because it really did add a beautiful lustre to the skin. It left a beautiful sheen that looked perfect in the light. That however, was the only bonus. It didn't moisturize me very well at all. It was a super light lotion and wouldn't get the job done if you had very dry skin. It was good for layering on top of something else. I just finished the tube I had last night. Guess now even if I wanted to repurchase, I couldn't.

I take one lippy off for the price of this, kind of high for Clinique (retailing over 20 euros here). But I love the product itself. The non-sticky, non-greasy formula and no perfume added, which means that you can use it right after waxing your legs.
The lotion sinks right in and leaves the skin a moistured, but very clean feel. I heard that this lotion will soon be out of the commerce, what a pity.

I really liked this body lotion. Great in the summer when slathering it on after it was stored in the fridge, but putting too much on made me a little sticky. I still have some GWP's lying around somewhere and I'll have to dig them out for this summer.

At the time I purchased this, the shimmer craze was just beginning, and shimmering body products hadn't really made it to the drugstore yet. This lotion absorbs quickly and gives skin a nice shimmery but not glittery appearance. It would be perfect if not for two problems: 1. It is pricy. 2. More importantly, I can't use it every day, as I would like to in the summer, because the spearmint, grapefruit, and lemon extracts irritate my skin when I use it regularly. Since the drugstore now offers cheaper, non-irritating shimmering lotions, I won't be repurchasing this.

This is the best light lotion I have ever used It is perfect for warmer weather when you don't need a heavy lotion. It has a pleasant, minimal scent and soaks in quickly to leave your skin smooth and not at all sticky. If it came in a pump bottle it would be even better.

This is the ideal spring/summer moisturizer. Like other reviewers said it gives a small amount of moisture, which is perfect for me in the summer. I put this in my fridge to intensify the cooling effect. I took off one lippie b/c it is a bit pricey. I do love the cool tingly feel of it!

I got it as a gift with my Clinique order... I didn't notice the shimmer until afterwards and that made me like the moisterizer (what can I say, I'm into shiny things!). It doesn't do much for moisterizing so I'd probably only use it in the summer when I'm wearing my short sleeves and shorts/skirts :)

The light shimmer to this lotion is fabulous for summer. And the cool feeling after applying is great. However, it's pricey and doesn't do that great of a job actually moiturizing my skin. There are cheaper alternatives.

I've used this for a while now and am finally getting around to reviewing it. First of all, like many previous reviewers said, it is minimally moisturizing. This is best for spring/summer weather. It does seem cooling and leaves a powdery sort of finish. It has a pleasant scent which is very light. I like that it actually has a fragrance since most Clinique products just smell medicinal because they're fragrance-free. It smells almost minty but I can't quite put my finger on it. It IS pricey for the amount but my favorite thing about it is the lovely shimmer. I've used up a couple GWP tubes before deciding that I really like it. I swapped for it rather than purchasing it. I haven't used this a whole lot since I got it (because it's been cold) but I imagine myself using it quite a bit more in the warmer months just around the corner.

This stuff is okay, if you're going to buy this, you're better off buying the Deep Comfort lotion that Clinique makes instead (my absolute favorite lotion). This stuff is like a greenish, watered down version of Deep Comfort with a sheen. I'd go with Deep Comfort instead.

This is one of the creepiest lotions I have used. It's sort of a green/blue color and actually looks like that on my skin - I have to rub it in like mad to get the color to fade! It feels cool to the touch, but to me, in a creepy way (like menthol). It doesn't smell good and it's not even remotely moisturizing enough for Fall or Winter. I won't be buying this ever again.

This is a good lotion for summer as it is absorbed really quick and smells minty fresh!
For winter it the texture is too thin though..

Leaves my skin feeling uncomfortably wet. Scent of citrus is ok. Would not repurchase.

This lotion barely moisturizes at all, and leaves a slightly sticky film. It also gives a "cool feeling" to the skin, which I didn't like. Although, it does leave a slight, lovely shimmer/sheen on the skin. I have a GWP size, and never reach for it. I don't rec. this lotion at all. The glow it leaves, is the *only* thing it's got going for it. I'll give 1 "lippie" for that...

smells really nice and fresh and has a slight shimmer added to it. It moisturized fairly well on my dry legs but would rather use something a little more thick

I've received this product as a GWP several times, and though I like it okay, it's not something I would purchase myself as there are other lotions I like better. Still, it's a decent lotion with a nice scent and a little bit of shimmer. It's especially nice in the summer, and you can keep it in the fridge for a nice cooling effect.

This is a great "my skin is naturally glowy" lotion. It's not too much for moisture, it's just a subtle sheen--great for the summer. The shine factor is similar to that of the Laura Mercier lotions.
