Good however slightly too heavy
This product is lovely and leaves a nice finish on your face however for it being an anti blemish foundation i find it too heavy and it doesnt seem to help my skin in the way the bb cram does
did not cause breakouts
This foundation did not cause further acne, but it also doesn't help current ones. It applies smoothly but I was a little disappointed with color selection. I am very pale and the lightest color seems to change color (a little orange) throughout the day.
The best coverage
When I first got this product I thought it would be just like any other foundation but when I used it on a dark spot on my face, I got the best results and I barely put anything on my face and it covered it completely. It isn’t to expensive and gives the best results.
Expensive, but I wouldn't be without it!
I have incredibly frustrating and annoying facial requirements: my skin is dry, apart from my forehead/nose/chin where it's oily and prone to breakouts, yet it's also quite sensitive! Finding skincare that can cope with all this is difficult at best, so when I was told about this foundation I went to my local Debenhams to ask for a sample - and within a week I was back to buy the full-size product.
Now, I know the price could be a real barrier to lots of people, and honestly I use this as my "best" makeup, with Maybelline stay-matte mousse as my everyday, but there is a huge difference between the two.
I have to use a Primer with the Maybelline product, and even then I don't always get a smooth, even coverage. With the Clinique product I know I will get a perfect coverage every single time, and it covers up the redness of my breakouts perfectly without feeling too thick or heavy.
Best foundation for sensitive/ acne prone skin
I have rather sensitive skin with quite bad acne, which has been known to flare up in response to some foundations. The Clinique Anti-Blemish foundation is the first one I've found that is gentle enough on my skin to not cause any reaction. It provides great coverage without being too heavy/ blocking pores. It's on the pricier side but definitely worth the investment!
Matte Foundation
It can be hard to spread around, but with a drop of oil or some moisturizer, it looks beautiful! It's a nice medium coverage with a matte finish (which is probably what you want if you're using this for acne-prone skin). I'm not sure if the salicylic acid in it really does anything to my skin, but it isn't doing anything bad to it! I also love the packaging because you can control how much foundation comes out as opposed to pouring it out of a glass jar and hoping for the best.
Keep break outs at bay
I have very oily skin and this is the only foundation that does not irritate my skin and keeps my blemishes at par. I do find my skin still looks shiny, so I always use a setting powder. This combo gives me good coverage throughout my work day (I have an active job) and does not clog my pores. It goes on smooth and blends easily with your fingers or a brush. I do find it on the pricey side, but it does its job well so for me it is worth it.
Love this foundation
My sister and I have used this foundation for a very long time, and it's still one of my personal favorites. It gives a really nice coverage and helps even out my skin tone. It does not feel cakey or heavy at all--doesn't cover my pores either, which is great since my skin is very acne prone, and this helps me not break out. My sister's skin is also acne prone and we both agree that this is one of the best foundations we've tried for our skin types.
Did not work out for me.
I have combination skin with some dark spots left from previous acne scars. This foundation was a perfect match for my skin. After about 3 hours, the foundation just looked....dirty. It had completely worn off on my nose, the darker spots that I had covered with concealer and set with powder had fully come off. Just looked splotchy and like a hot mess. I would not recommend!
I think it does exactly what it says. Even though the coverage isn't great it is really sensitive to my skin I don't get oily or acne after use for several days in a row my skin still feels like it can breath.
