I am appalled by some of the reviews for this product on this site.("Stay away from the counter!" )I just had to express my opinion. Clinique has worked great for my combo, mildly acne prone skin. Perhaps these women have more serious problems that require a professional, I dont know. Within a week my skin tone had improved and their Acne Solutions Gel is fabulous as well. The only slight downfall (my reason for giving a 4 instead of a 5) is that for me the DD moisture lotion is a bit too oily for my skin type. While not extremely expensive, Clinique IS a bit of a splurge as a college student, but its worth it!
