Exfoliation is the difference-maker for great skin. For gentle, daily exfoliation, use Clarifying Lotion twice a day. Clarifying Lotion is Clinique’s dermatologist-developed liquid exfoliant available in 5 skin-typed formulas. Sweep it over skin with a cotton ball to lift away pollution, dirt, impurities, and excess oil that cleansing may have missed. Our facial exfoliator sloughs off dead cells and excess oil that can dull skin, cause breakouts, and clog pores. Leaves skin looking fresh and renewed. Use this exfoliating lotion after cleansing and before moisturizing. 5 skin-typed formulas are powered by actives*-like witch hazel, BHA (salicylic acid), acetyl glucosamine-for just-right, twice-daily exfoliation. For drier skin types, exfoliation whisks away surface flakes, clearing the way for moisturizer. For oilier skin types, exfoliation helps minimize excess oil and keep pores clear. Did you know our exfoliating lotion is different from a toner? Toners are primarily used to help rebalance skin after cleansing. Clinique Clarifying Lotion is formulated with exfoliating ingredients to help remove dead cells on skin’s surface. Clearing away that debris allows your skincare to work better. After using Clarifying Lotion, your skin can more readily absorb moisturizer and other treatment products. Clarifying Lotion is Step 2 in Clinique’s iconic 3-Step skincare system. The routine is scientifically designed to create healthy skin. Just 3 steps, 3 minutes, twice a day: cleanse, exfoliate, moisturize. It’s that simple. Available in 5 skin-typed formulas. Clarifying Lotion 1.0: Sensitive Skin, Clarifying Lotion 1: Very Dry Skin, Clarifying Lotion 2: Dry Combination Skin, Clarifying Lotion 3: Combination Oily Skin, and Clarifying Lotion 4: Oily Skin. *Specific ingredients vary by skin-typed formula.
