Anyone use any of this range? Was thinking about the face spray and thirst relief cream

I absolutely love both of them. I used to have quite oily skin and the moisture surge products were perfectly light and non-Greasy. Post menopause, my skin is drier, and they still suit and give me a very comfortable feeling.

Love the moisturiser! I had acne with dry patches for years until I found this!

I really like the tinted moisturiser from this range.

Love both! The spray is great in the morning and I use the cream at night as it takes longer to settle in.

My skin is hypersensitive and very dehydrated but creams just feel horrible and I get shine on skin even though I'm not particularly oily! So tempted by these products!

I have very sensitive skin and am on the whole ok with Clinique. I think they have a policy where you can return things if you react with them. Probably worth having a chat at the counter. I have loads of sample size moisture surge stuff from the give away things that they do, so they should have samples they can give you.

I have eczema and incredibly sensitive allergic skin but I love the moisturiser in the jar. It really feels like a big refreshing 'drink' for your face. Totally non greasy. I also tried the moisture mask and found it didn't absorb well. I think it's the moisture surge intense moisturiser that I have. Go to a counter and try them on your skin.

The moisturiser is a gel creme formula so not greasy like a cream can be sometimes.

I love the gel cream. The Chanel gel moisturiser I used to use was discontinued and Clinique Moisture Surge is as good. I have combination skin (spotty and dry!). I wouldn't use anything else now, most other gel moisturisers seem really drying.

Yeah that's what I was worried about because the other gel moisturisers I've tried have been really drying! Getting more and more tempted by this now!

It's definitely not drying, I think it might be the only gel type moisturiser I've liked.

Is there much difference between the moisture surge intense hydrator and the extended thirst relief version? Thanks

I love Moisture Surge. But i find its expensive so tend to buy a pot late October which lasts me through winter. Then back on to Nivea once the bitter winds stop.

I used to use moisture surge (thirst relief or something? It was a gel type thing in a pot anyway) when I was younger and this thread has reminded me of all the things I loved about it.

Do you think it would layer well under an spf?

I feel like I need more hydration than an spf is giving (but less greasiness than some other spf's give) but equally I don't want to put 2 creams on top of each other (after serum too) as I feel a bit clogged up then, so I thought this might be a good compromise?

Well I've bought some of the cream and the spray so will report back after few days!

I have very sensitive skin which is irritated by moisture surge (it's too water based for me I think). Clinique superdefense (dry skin version) works well for me and has spf 20 which is a massive bonus as I normally react to sunscreen.

I love the moisture surge tinted moisturiser. I had a blip a while ago and thought I should be upping my foundation game, so tried testers from Chanel, Estee Lauder, Lancome, Laura Mercier, loads more, recommended on other threads and elsewhere.

I came back to the Clinique Moisture Surge and am still happy I did.

I'm still liking these so far, they have really surprised me tbh as I usually react to Clinique. I'm hoping I've finally cracked it!
