Made me break out so I'm swearing off. Goes on nicely -- no smell, like the pump, etc., but after only one week the purging (or whatever) was getting too much for me without any foreseeable end and I couldn't take it anymore. Bad bad bad for me.

This stuff is awesome! It's much less harsh than the .005% Retin-A and .1%Retinol creams I've tried. It has lessened my acne scars already and I've only used 1/4 of the full size bottle. Yes, my combo skin is flaking, but I use a good scrub and moisturizer to counteract that. I also like the silicone type matte finish it leaves on my skin to minimize my large pores. This is definitely a HG product for me and one of the few Clinique products I really like. I'm not a big Clinique makeup or skincare person having tried quite a few of their products over the years, but this is giving me renewed faith. LOL.

I really like this. I use it most days, in the morning after cleanse/tone and using DD gel. I find I only need a tiny amount-just a small drop and apply it to nose, chin, forehead mainly. It keeps my skin smooth and seems to make my pores smaller(I am prone to blocked pores). I find if I stop using it for more than a few days my skin loses its glow and looks dull.It is expensive, but it really lasts as you don't need much.

I have only used this once so far so I dont know why I am writing a review so early! Anyway, I think this is great so far. It has really helped with my breakouts over one night. The bha is so subtle. Watch this space....

I love TT Lotion. This is definately a HG for me. This helps to speed up the exfoliation process on the face so that your cells turn over at a faster rate so that you have a more even skin, softer and brighter skin. What some of the reviewers don't understand is that sometimes, some people will break out at first from using it only b/c TT Lotion is pushing everything to the surface, but then after you get past that initial breakout period, then your skin/face will be better than it's ever been, i.e. if you do break out, then you won't break out as much or as badly. This product is meant to be used only once a day, either morning or night, you choose. And then you just put your regular lotion over it. It also has a nice irredesence quality to it so it makes your skin instantly brighter. One those days I decide to use a sheer foundation, I do TT Lotion before, so that my skin has that healthy glow. I love this stuff so much!

I find this oil-free version absorbs much better the original version. My skin feels really good when I put it on in the morning before my sunscreen (Lancome"s Vitabolic). Then again maybe the Differin I am applying during the night prepares my skin for the thirst quenching experience too. Overall I think this product is better than Vichy's oglio (green ) gel cream for combo skin because it doesn't leave a sticky feeling like Vichy's.

uck!! made my pores clog up and my chin break out. Worked well for the oil control throughout the day, but the new zits are enough to make me exchange it. Am going to try the repairwear oil free next.

This makes my skin so smooth and nice. This is BHA lotion, so make sure you apply this at night before u go to bed. I bought this like 4 times and this never disappointed me. This might be irritating for sensitive skineed people though.

I live in a hot & humid weather so I basically use this to control the shine on my face every morning (I have oily skin). Love the texture, absorbs into the skin real fast and has cause me no problems so far (been using it for almost a year). I can't really tell the difference though when I look in the mirror but I know it has worked on my skin because my beautician has commented that my skin condition has improved... will keep buying this! continued >>

I've purchased a turnaround lotion after reading positive reviews at the Makeupalley
I was impressed the very next morning I put it on! My skin looked fresh, young, and shine-free! What's not to love! So, for the first few weeks of using I was recomending it to all my friends.
I have to say, that in addition to a combination skin I have some psoriasis on my face, which I keep under control easily with a doctor prescribed cortison gel. But I don't need to use it anymore! Turnaround lotion keeps my skin looking healthy with no additional treatments for a psoriasis. (salicylic acid is actually used for the treatment of skin conditions like psoriasis)
So, for the price of about $25 (even less expensive on e-bay)I get a healthy, good looking, shine-free skin. (And I save a lot on my prescription gel!:))
The only thing that I am not sure, is that after about 6-8 weeks of using it, it doesn't seem to be working as good. But maybe I just got used to my freshlooking skin. When I stoped using it for a few days, I could actually see that my skin looks duller, then usual.
So, I highly recomend this lotion, especially if you have an oily/combination skin!

Why did they change the original formula? This one has way too much silicone for my combo skin -- and it's marketed to gals with oilier/blemish-prone complexions. It feels nice and silky but it broke me out like crazy. Within a few days of discontinued use, my face had cleared. Much prefer Oil of Olay's Total Effects.

I didn't purchased this for any reason at all. I knew it is a light moisturiser and a friend of mine have been using this for many years and reaping great result.
First of all, if you are using this make sure that you wear a minimum of SPF 15 in the day time as it has a peeling effect. But, because of this effect, it leaves your skin a little thinner and at the end gives a smoother and softer skin for a long run. I normaly use this only in the night time. Great product!

This takes time to show effects. I didnt see results after a week of using it, but somewhere nearing a month of using this, my skin does seem to look healthier. Not too sure if i'd buy this again, though... I'm sure there are cheaper, just as effective products out there!

This is an expensive product where I live (Australia) and it doesn't work as well as I wish. It's light and absorbes very well. It keeps my face clear and shine free for like the first half hour, but oil begins to sit on my face later. I don't really see a differnce.

This used to be my holy grail moisturizer until... I found LaMer! I still love this stuff though and will probably re-purchase some day in the future, when my skin needs a break from LaMer! It effectly works on acne, removes dead skin cells and brightened up your skin. Nice stuff.

Clinique done good when they made this stuff. It exfoliates and brightens the skin like nobody's business, and my red marks are becoming mere unpleasant memories due to its renewing properties. I actually saw a visible difference the VERY next morning after using it at night. This product actually mattifies the skin and prevents oil breakthrough, and it sloughs off blemishes and their leftover spots. Plus, it comes in a pump dispenser that ensures integrity of the formula. A few warnings--not for sensitive or dry skin. Use a different Turnaround Cream. Don't use on or near eyes. I'm sure it would burn. And don't use too much or you'll get major dryness. I apply the silky-smooth formula (a drop is all you need), then apply a light lotion on any tight spots on my face. This is an amazing product that does exactly what it promises, and it's relatively cheap ($26.00). If you've got oily skin that needs sloughing to keep from breaking out, THIS is the stuff to look for. I like this better than Paula's Choice and am so happy I discovered it.
