Hello all. I should have known about this site a long time ago but any how here's my story.<p>
Working as a professional Makeup Artist you are expected to not only have great makeup, but great skin as well. (It's a lot of pressure honestly.) I went to Fresh Cosmetics and spent a ridiculous amount of money on skincare products which did absolutely NOTHING for my skin.<p>
I've tried many, MANY different things...and nothing just seemed to be working right.<p>
One of my friends over at Clinique told me that I should try their 3 step skincare program. I have very dry, sensitive skin with occasional breakouts. I had these bumps/blemishes on my cheeks that I had for MONTHS which would NOT go away. (I believe I got them from using a MAC blush :) She gave me a sample of the 3 step program for dry combination skin. I used it that night, and although the clarifying lotion burned the HELL out of my skin...when I woke up the next morning I was pleased BEYOND words. Those bumps that I had been trying to get rid of for months had actually shrunk <i>over night.</i><p>
I used the sample over the next 3 days and noticed that it was starting to dry out my skin, but I still loved the fact that my bumps were disappearing. I went over to Clinique and picked up the level 2, 3-step package (against my better judgement.) Over the next few days my skin had become almost raw. I went in and exchanged it for the 3-step for Very dry/sensitive skin, and I absolutely love it.<p>
It has worked MIRACLES for my skin, seriously. My bumps are almost completely gone, my blackheads surfaced enough to be removed, and the tone of my skin has just improved dramatically.
I don't know if I would recommend the lotion that comes with it, because at one point I had to use another lotion ON TOP of it, but other than that...I think this skincare product is GREAT for the price, and I would recommend it to anyone.
