Clinique Even Better Makeup


Once in awhile you come across a product in your stash that you've really not looked at much and suddenly you try it and it's a star. Thats happened to you right ?

The most recent one- Clinique Even Better Foundation. I think when I first got this it was high summer and there was no way any foundation was going to cut it that wasn't uber matte. My skin does dewy , well way more than dewy all by itself then. So I put it away.

Flash forward to winter and 2 feet of snow. Even my oily, now cold weather normal-ish, skin needs some extra moisture . So I grabbed this and found out I loved it. It truly does seem to even the skin a little and it certainly brightens. This all is right off, no skin treatment needed. You get a glow as there is a little radiance ( not shimmer) in there and while it's oil- free it's a dewy finish and so just right for my winter skin. For weeks it turned out to be the foundation I reached for every day . That's rare . I like to switch it up a lot.

The coverage is medium to full and it wears long. I know come summer this will go back in the closet, but for now I like having a little brightness and glow. Who wouldn't ?

Note: Clinique just launched a new Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Corrector that's supposed to be the strongest without a prescription. If you are in the market for spot fading, this might be worth a look. I haven't myself tried it.

Even Better Makeup sells for $ 24.50
