How to combat common skin concerns with Clinique

Dealing with stubborn skin concerns like dryness, blemishes, or uneven tone can be frustrating, but finding the right skincare routine doesn't have to be a challenge. This season, we’re upgrading our routines as we explore some of the most common skin issues and how to combat them effectively using Clinique's dermatologist-developed products.

Whether you're battling with oily skin, dullness, or signs of ageing, Clinique offers targeted solutions that can help you achieve clearer, healthier-looking skin. Let’s dive into how these trusted formulas can transform your complexion and boost your skincare game.

Dry, flaky skin

An essential part of any great skincare routine, a good moisturiser gives your skin the boost of hydration it needs. The Clinique Moisture Surge range combats daily dehydration with a formula crafted to inject all the moisture your skin needs. From city air pollution to weather changes and daily travel, our lives are packed with things that dehydrate our skin.

The refreshing gel-cream formula of the Moisture Surge 100 Hour Auto-Replenishing Hydrator is powered by Auto-Replenishing Technology, which works alongside hyaluronic acid, cica and an aloe bio-ferment to minimise feelings of dryness, while protecting against environmental aggressors with vitamins C and E. Not to mention the multi-purpose formula can also be used as a cuticle treatment, highlighter and a face mask for a plump, dewy-looking complexion.

Blemish prone skin

From cleansing foam and clarifying lotions to all-over blemish-control treatments for your skin, Clinique Anti-Blemish Solutions are formulated to clear and help prevent blemishes and breakouts. Salicylic acid is the super ingredient that works to stop the spread of spots while making sure your skin is hydrated. Good-for-skin, oil-controlling ingredients make up the expert formulas that help to prevent the build-up of oil that can lead to clogged pores and breakouts; like the Anti Blemish Solutions All Over Clearing Treatment. Expertly formulated by dermatologists to help treat blemishes, acne and breakouts, this lightweight cream works to create a protective barrier against harmful agents that cause skin irritations, whilst injecting skin with a dosage of moisture to minimise dryness and peeling.

If the breakouts have beat you to it, achieve a clearer complexion with the Anti-Blemish Line Correcting Serum; a hydrating formula that works to banish blemishes and breakouts on adult skin. Fortified with innovative anti-ageing technology, the fast-absorbing serum improves the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and uneven skin tone, whilst controlling oil and minimising excess sebum production.

Fine lines and wrinkles

Clinique’s Smart Skincare range is specifically designed to address the signs of ageing, making it an excellent choice for more mature skin. This advanced line uses a blend of innovative ingredients that adapt to your skin's needs, targeting fine lines, wrinkles, and other visible signs of aging.

The Smart Clinical Repair Wrinkle Correcting Serum, for example, combines potent anti-ageing peptides with hyaluronic acid to plump and smoothen the skin. These ingredients help to boost collagen production, which naturally declines as we age, leading to firmer, more youthful-looking skin. What makes this range particularly beneficial for mature skin is its ability to provide both immediate hydration and long-term repair. Clinique’s formulas are designed to strengthen the skin’s moisture barrier, preventing dehydration, which is a common concern for ageing skin. Additionally, the inclusion of antioxidants and gentle exfoliants in products like the Smart Night Custom-Repair Moisturizer helps to improve skin texture and tone, while reducing the appearance of deep wrinkles over time.
