Is Clinique make up worth the money?

I do like it but the prices have taken a hike. Does anyone still think its worth the cost?

It's good for sensitive skin and they do a lot of gifts with purchase so time it right and you get a lot for free

I too have Clinique lipsticks which could be nearing 20 years old. OOps.

don't wear make up a lot, but did used to use the 3 step system - hence random lipsticks in the bonus bags.

I did like the mascara, might try it again.

I use the anti-blemish concealer regularly. A tube of that lasts me a long time. I find it is the best ever concealer for small spots and marks. It doesn't rub off.

I love Clinique. The skincare stuff is great. There's a Bonus Time on their website at the mo.

I used to use loads when I had eczema as it was the only brand that was unperfumed and allergy tested. I've stuck with their City Block for 25 years and also like some of their foundations though was mortified that they have discontinued many of the palest shades in some. I switched to Bobbi Brown but have yet to find a formula that really works for me even though the colours did. I'm using Clinique Perfectly Real foundation which I think is underrated and it's only £21.

I used their blusher too but found it goes hard easily and the pan - oblong- is useless if you use a full size blusher brush- have now swapped to B Brown.

I like the lippies- Butter Surge and the eye pencils but think both are overpriced.

Have swapped from their moisturiser to Olay 3-point Regenerist which is about £12 instead of £30 on Amazon.

I wear their Superbalm Moisturizing (lip) Gloss (in Grapefruit, which is a pale pink) and I like that.
I used to use City Block SPF40, but now use Skinceuticals which is much better, and is also has an SPF of 50
I've only tried their mascaras/eye shadows when I've had a GWP, haven't liked any of them.
I don't use foundation, so don't know about those.
