I love this makeup. However, it was discontinued recently. Does anyone know what's the replacement from Clinique (or other brand)? Thanks!!

This looked fabulously smooth and matt in the department store, it really did make my imperfections disappear. It was another matter when I got home and used it in natural light! It feels nice when...

I wish I could answer "Hell no!" to "Would you buy this product again?" I HATED it. I'm super oily and thought it would be an HG. Ugh. Thin, watery, separates so must be shaken before each...

This stuff is totally weird, but it works like nothing else if you have oily, acne-prone skin. I started using this as a teenager and still want to, but my skin has gotten a lot drier now. The...

This was great for me in high school. Now it is not heavy enough for me (I need med/full coverage for acne scars). If you have oily skin and just need a foundation to even out skin tone, this is...

This is a great foundation for oily skin!! Goes on as a liquid and dries with a matte, powder finish. This product does contain alcohol, so pores appear smaller and makes your skin feel tighter...

I've been using this product for the past couple months, and I really like it. I've tried all the Clinique foundations, and this is by far the best for oily/acne-prone skin. My dermatologist even...

Okay, so this is an odd makeup. I have mixed feelings about it. It definitely mattifies- I don't shine at any point during the day. But I was a little apprehensive of the composition of the makeup....

I have to say this is a very strange foundation ever. I bought it and it was so liquidy - picture water. I had to try it anyway. I put it on my face with a cotton and when it dried, it provided a...

Pore Minimizer must be the most bizarre experience in the world of foundations. The bottle used to be a kind of rectangular affair that you had to shake violently to mix it. The consistency is very...

Here's the breakdown on this product: it is very watery and the formula seperates with the pigment on the bottom and an oily layer on the top (read: must shake it well). But like many clinique...

Used this stuff when I was in high school in the early 1980's. I remembered it to be a streaky foundation but that was all I could remember. Well, I bought some after Clinique brought it back. BIG...
