{BEAUTY REVIEW} | Clinique Smart


Hi lovelies! I hope your weekend was wonderful! Today I will be giving you a quick rundown of a few products from the Clinique Smart range.

Last week I attended the Clinique Smart breakfast at The Saxon Hotel. We were introduced to the range and were also taught how to make a few ‘smart’ and healthy recipes. I will be trying them out sometime so do follow me on Instagram if you’d like to see how they turn out.

I’ve been using Clinique products on my skin for many, many years now. I swear by the iconic 3-Step and I think everyone (men, women, old, young…) should be using it. It’s also now available in a mini trial pack at ZAR395 so there are no excuses! I also love Clinique’s ‘Take The Day Off’ for makeup removal so I was pretty keen to know more about the Clinique Smart products.


Here are my thoughts

Clinique Smart SPF15 Custom Repair Moisturizer

“If a woman can do at least four things at once her care has to do the same.” This light but moisturizing cream claims to tackle wrinkles, elasticity, dullness and pigmentation.
It glides on smoothly and absorbs into the skin with a non-greasy feel. I love that it has an SPF of 15 and it also provides a great base for makeup.

Clinique Smart Night Custom Repair Moisturizer

This rich (oil free) night cream is formulated with Smart™ hydration technology which helps the skin retain moisture.  It tackles lines, brightens and firms.
This moisturizer feels absolutely delightful on my skin. It’s so soft and velvety and absorbs perfectly. My skin is still happy and hydrated when I wake up.

Clinique Smart Custom Repair Serum

This ‘smart’ serum claims to understand the particular needs of your skin and then works to repair those issues. It attacks both the damage you can see and you cannot see.
I really like the light feeling of this serum. I tend to find serums quite heavy and oily but this one feels very light almost like a moisturizer.

Clinique Smart Treatment Oil

This one is definitely the star of the range for me! It is a blend of antioxidants that nurture the skin’s capacity to repair and strengthens the skin’s moisture barrier. It contains, amongst other oils, Argan oil and Vitamins C and E which all work together for targeted repair and care.
For an oil it is super lightweight and absorbs in really quickly. It makes my skin feel really soft and hydrated and gives it a lovely glow. I apply a few drops  it directly to my face but you can even mix a few drops with your moisturizer for a really hydrating boost.

So far I really like the Clinique Smart range. The products are all allergy tested and fragrance free so you can be sure that you’re only putting pure goodness on the skin.

I will share more results with you over social media once I’ve used the products for a longer period.
You can find Clinique Smart at your nearest Clinique counter or online at www.clinique.co.za

Until next time!

Love, sparkles and happy skin
