I used to buy their yellow moisturiser back in the day. It actually suited my skin back then and I found it great under makeup. I haven`t used it for many a year and now I`m older my skin is drier and more fragile so I doubt it would be suitable. Plus I only buy cruelty free products nowadays and keep my skincare routine as simple as possible. The less stuff I use then the better my sensitive skin behaves so its a gentle facewash which is liquid unperfumed African black soap from Akamuti, a homemade toner made from organic floral waters and just a dab of moisturiser in the morning or facial oil at night. I only use a cleanser when I`ve been wearing makeup which is few and far between these days.
 
I remember being told by an SA who worked for Clinique back in the 90s. They got sued over the famous yellow moisturizer. Yes, it was a wonder moisturizer and could be used around the eyes, face and neck. So, a woman in the US sued them because it caused her eye problems using it. So after that the counter staff had to say not to use around the eyes.

The famous program of the yellow bar of soap, toner and yellow moisturizer. But, wait! You really should use a makeup remover, eye makeup remover, serum, and different moisturizer.
 
Their yellow face cleansing soap was far too harsh and drying for me even in my 30’s and 40’s. The only cleanser I use now is the hot flannel one from Aldi (various flavours). I didn’t like Liz Earle’s version, too drying. I’m currently using a small Gatineau rinse-off cleanser (from my stash) and it’s good but no better than Aldi’s.

Not a lover of Clinique. I want the scent and lovely textures and thick creams. Good that its a proper regime
 
I've just checked the guide, and it's AY doing the launch!

We need Julia to barge in shouting "But Alison, you were disgusted that I used this brand, and threw all my products in the dressing room bin.....I've mentioned it to our viewers several times. Why is it suddenly the best thing to put on your skin?"

Introducing Clinique - not that this name needs much introduction, of course. Legendary skincare brand Clinique has just landed here at QVC, bringing you a range of fuss-free yet results-driven formulas to help you achieve the complexion of your dreams.

Easy as one, two, three - if you find skincare a bit of a minefield, or just want to strip back your routine to the essentials, you can’t go wrong with the classic Three-Step System. It's simple to use and takes very little time out of your day. Simply cleanse with Liquid Facial Soap, exfoliate with Clarifying Lotion, and moisturise with Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion or Gel. Repeat every morning and evening, and you're done!

Bigger is better - we know you won't be able to get enough of your new products, that's why we've included a 200ml size of Dramatically Different Lotion or Gel in each collection, which is currently only available at QVC.

Knowing your skin - no complexion is the same, and Clinique doesn't treat them the same either, that's why you have four options to pick from with this collection. Very Dry, Dry is for those whose face feels dry and tight all over after cleansing, while Dry Combination is perfect for those who have dry cheeks but have a comfortable complexion everywhere else. Cheeks feeling good but have an oilier T-zone? Then Combination Oily is your best bet, while Oily is great for those who face all-over shine.

Agree with the skincare being incredibly harsh, tried it in my teens and the cleansing bar too but the makeup is great. I remember Swedish Formula, the first hypo allergenic range of cosmetics I think, well I lusted after the powder with sparkly flecks in and knowing my skin sensitivity I risked it with trepidation. As soon as that powder hit my face I was in agony. The simpler my routine the better, wish I’d have known that sooner, years sooner!
 
I think like a lot of people I started with clinique as my first "luxe" skincare brand with the blemish range about 15 years ago. Haven't used it since, but youre better off getting it in boots when they have the free gift, always there's a voucher for extra boots points and most of the time the consultants on the booth would give me loads of extra freebies.
 
So now in the 21st century they have dumped the bar soap, and now it is liquid soap. But still soap not cleanser.

It will be fun watching AY raving about the brand and TSV and lying through her teeth.
They still have the bar soap
 
Another who found Clinique far too drying on the skin, a few years back, I wanted to like it but it left my face sore. I tried to covince myself it was because it was cleaning so well but I got a sense of using moisturiser to stop the drying and a being stuck in a vicious circle and actually not doing me any favours at all. Never again.
