Over the holiday season, I bought a lot of sets and minis because its a great opportunity to try out things you may not be fully committed to. One of those was the Clinique Dewy You Set (now on sale for $13.50) which included the Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief, Moisture Surge Overnight Mask, and the Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm.
The Clinique Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief is a gel moisturizer, perfect for daytime wear for my oily skin. It’s not sticky and plays well with other products; I find that sometimes moisturizers with the gel texture pill pretty badly when layered with other products. This does not happen with this moisturizer. If I am staying at home all day, this will be the last step in my regimen and will last me about 6 hours. If I am going to work and this is my primary moisturizer, it’ll last me all day due to the other cosmetics I wear. It’s a basic moisturizer good for normal to oily skin, in my opinion. I think people that have dry skin will not find this sufficient long-term.
The Clinique Moisture Surge Overnight Mask is basically a sleeping mask but I would argue it can be used as a moisturizer. I have other sleeping masks that are thicker and richer than this one, and I feel like this is more of a light sleeping mask. I do feel like my skin is very soft after using it, but I don’t find it very moisturizing throughout the night. I also notice that when I shower in the morning, I don’t feel that layer of product being rinsed off like I do with other sleeping masks. I’m not sure if that’s good or bad; it could be that the mask has seeped into my skin or it could be that it’s been wiped off on my pillow. Either way, I find myself more inclined to use this as a regular moisturizer more than a sleeping mask.
The Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm has been around for a long time and they looked so basic to me, that I never would have thought of purchasing one on its own. Since it came in this set, I was delighted to give it a try and you know what? I love it 😭 I totally regret not buying that big sampler set over the holidays!
The balm gives such a natural tint of color, is easy to use (really, I can slather this on without a mirror), and I’ve been using it nonstop since I got it. It’s moisturizing, too, and doesn’t emphasize the dryness of my lips.
Look how smooth! |
