Clinique Ambassador Final Post

I have completed the ambassador programme from Clinique. I have finished my reviews, uploaded my video and got 10 friends to join. Firstly, I'd like to say a huge thank you to every one who provided me with their email address or used my ambassador code; it really does mean a lot to me and I hope you enjoy your 3 step kits as much I loved mine. I am one of the first 200 to have completed the 3 steps so I will receive a full sized 3 step system! Below, I will be posting my video diary/review and also the reviews that I submitted on the website. The 3 step system I received was in skin type 3, Oily Combination. If you'd like to view my profile then my ambassador code is FR22813472.

Liquid Facial Soap - 
This product is beautiful. It dissolves my make up perfectly and leaves my skin feeling comfortable and not dry or too oily. The only problem with this is that it does not remove eye make up so I've been using Clinique's Take the Day Off eye make up remover for this. This soap foams up brillaintly and you only need a tiny amount to work it into a lather for your entire face; this means that the product is great value for money. It also has a cooling sensation on the skin and I believe that it has menthol or something inside it because it also smells a bit minty (even though it claims to be fragrance free I believe that everything has to have some sort of fragrance).

Clarifying Lotion - 
When I used the Anti Blemish Kit I loved my Clarifying Lotion but unfortunately I had to stop using it because it did dry my skin out a lot. In the early days of using this one (3), my skin looked a lot brighter and felt much smoother; and although at first I was worried about using it, it didn't dry my skin out. After the first week however, my skin did start to become a little drier and because of this I believe I need the Clarifying Lotion in skin type 2 next time. But I am addicted to these lotions because they exfoliate the skin exceptionally well and gently.

Moisturizing Gel - 
This moisturiser is pure gorgeous. It hydrates where my skin needs it yet it doesn't make my skin look shiny or feel oily. It allows my skin to feel beautiful and provides a great base for make up. There is nothing more to say about this except it is absolutely perfect.

Overall - 
A big must have for me whenever I'm trying out a new skin care routine is definitely whether or not it breaks me out and I have to say, this particular one didn't. Although it didn't help with my spots, it didn't cause any more which is amazing. To treat my spots I used Pan Oxyl and it works in harmony with my Clinique products. Overall, the Clinique 3 step system is a wonderful idea and I love the 'try me kits.' However, if I was to repurchase this (and I will be doing, hopefully I'll be one of the 200 to complete this first lol). I would change my Clarifying Lotion for skin type 2 instead.

The Video -
Now for the video, I'd love for you all to go onto the Ambassador Website and watch and rate my video on there! This is so that I'm in with the chance of winning the grand prize for London. If I do win this, I will be doing another giveaway.. A sort of bribe haha!

Also, I apologise for the lack of pictures on this page. I was going to take some however I needed to keep my Camera memory card in my laptop to upload the video, so I didn't get round to it.

Remember to enter my giveaway and apply to be a guest reviewer!
