Clinique Even Better Clinical Serum Foundation
In April 2021 I was thrilled to join QVC as a Program Host! While I am employed by Qurate Retail Group, all views and opinions expressed here are my own and do not represent the views or opinions of the Company.
Clinique’s Beyond Perfecting foundation blew me away! So, I couldn’t wait to try the new Clinique Even Better Clinical Serum Foundation was all about!
The Formula
This is an oil-free formula. The coverage is medium to full. According to Clinique, it’s formulated with the brand’s exclusive dark spot fighting molecule.
In addition to that, the formula contains vitamin C, salicylic acid, and hyaluronic acid. While it’s SPF 25, I prefer to wear a layer of sunscreen under my primer even if the makeup contains SPF.
Clinique is great if you have sensitive skin because it’s fragrance-free and allergy-tested. According to Clinique, after 8 weeks of use, 91% of women saw reduced imperfections on bare skin.
My First Impression
A lot comes out with one pump! You should probably start with half a pump to avoid wasting product. The coverage is lovely. It covered most of the dark spots on my face with one layer.
The second layer went on beautifully. It didn’t feel heavy or cakey. Plus, my skin looked flawless and radiant. If you really like a matte look, this may not be the foundation for you. It’s a satin, skin-like, finish. However, when I applied setting powder it did read slightly more matte. It wears nicely throughout the day. I’m on the oily side, so I do need to blot my t-zone occasionally. Other than that, it looks great!
Final Thoughts
Clinique is coming ALL the way through! I love that this foundation is buildable, and the finish is very nice. I’m curious to see if I’ll notice the skincare benefits after continued use.
