Review: Clinique Superdefense SPF 25 PA+++

Moisturizer is the one skincare product I cannot live without (lipbalm is second). I don't mind going out of the house with nary a trace of makeup on, as long as I have moisturized beforehand. I was able to get a very generous sample size of Clinique Superdefense SPF 25/PA +++ at the Clinique party last April, which I started using around May. I am about to run out of it in a matter of days so I figured it was time for a review.

Description (from Sasa.com):

Clinique SUPERDEFENSE SPF25 Age Defense Moisturizer is the four-dimension protection against the effects of sun, stress and time. This daily moisturizer delivers all-rounded protection to help skin combat the elements that conspire to age skin, Start at the first signs if aging and you can virtually help deactivate skin’s visible responses—lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone. Even enhance the barrier function that keeps skin firm and supple.

It stabilizes sunscreen for protection against UVA (the aging rays) and UVB (the burning rays).

It prompts skin’s defenses into full alert mode, boosting a natural repair response.

It helps skin deflect the visible effects of emotional stress—those fight or flight reactions—that can start a cascade of damage within skin, surfacing as lines, wrinkles, uneven tone.

Price & Amount: Php 2,950 for 50mL

Clinique presents The Doctor Is In!

Hi everyone! Just a quick post to let you know of this awesome event, especially to Northerners like myself (haha). Clinique Trinoma is holding "The Doctor Is In", where they're going to have guest dermatologists on hand at the Clinique counter for skin consultations. The helpful Clinique consultants are also there should you have any questions and concerns about Clinique products.

I can't be there, but my one advice is: Don't be afraid to go. The session I had at the Makati counter was really helpful and not awkward at all, plus I learned a lot! I'm pretty sure the same will happen here, and you even have the advantage of talking to an actual doctor. :) Have fun, and I'll wait for pictures!

The Second Project Vanity Clinique Party

When I first read about the Clinique party on Project Vanity, I wanted to sign up right away but couldn't because I had things to do that March. Good thing there was a take two, and I was so excited I immediately sent an email without giving my name and contact details! I really wanted a chance to get to know the brand especially after I decided to pay more attention to (a.k.a. invest in, hehe) my skincare routine.
