Clinique Clarifying Lotion 2 200ml

Clinique Clarifying Lotion 2 200ml is the brand's bestselling exfoliating lotion, formulated for dry-combination skin as the second step of Clinique's iconic 3-Step System. Built around a mild salicylic acid (BHA) chemistry with witch hazel and conditioning ingredients, it gently sweeps away dulling surface cells, refines the look of pores, and prepares the skin to better absorb the moisturiser that follows. About Clinique 3-Step Clinique launched in 1968 as part of Estée Lauder Companies, conceived around the principles of a Manhattan dermatologist's office: skincare that is allergy tested, fragrance-free where possible, and recommended as a simple, effective routine. The 3-Step System — cleanse, exfoliate, moisturise — has been the brand's flagship since the start, and Clarifying Lotion 2 is the version of step 2 chosen for skins that lean dry-combination rather than oily. Key ingredients Salicylic acid (BHA): A mild chemical exfoliant that helps loosen and lift dulling surface cells. Witch hazel extract: Helps refine the appearance of pores and tighten the look of the skin. Acetyl glucosamine: Helps balance and smooth the look of the skin's surface. Sodium hyaluronate and glycerin: Add a gentle hydration step to keep the skin from feeling stripped. Free from parabens, phthalates and sulphates: A relatively pared-back formula suitable for sensitive routines. Who it's for Clarifying Lotion 2 is recommended for dry-combination skin types — those whose skin tends to feel a little dry overall but with some shine through the T-zone. It is a good entry point for anyone new to chemical exfoliation, with a gentler hand than the higher-numbered Clinique exfoliating lotions designed for oilier skins. How to use Cleanse the skin first with a Clinique cleanser appropriate to your skin type. Saturate a cotton pad with Clarifying Lotion 2. Sweep gently across the face and neck, avoiding the eye area and lips. Use morning and evening. Follow with Clinique Dramatically Different
