A little surprised with my success…
When Patrick didn’t arrive home in a timely fashion on Friday, as I mentioned, I kept myself amused by sorting through my Clinique samples and giving myself a “Turnaround 15-minute-facial“.
I think I am among the most sceptical when it comes to magical face creams and the like, but this one is so good it changed my whole perception of cosmetics a little. Actually, my nose looked so pretty after using it that Patrick even let me give him a facial the next day! Ha!
I am entirely convinced that a very large percentage of the expensive potions and lotions on the market have little other than a placebo effect with their pretty packaging and high price. (I do admit though, that I love all the pretty bottles and boxes and that the careful procedures of applying all these creams does put me in a good mood.)
I strongly dislike cosmetic advertising which so often crosses the line into bulls**t territory and is always, at the least, misleading. It is nice then, to find that some of these things do actually do something.

Are you serious… I feel like rushing out to buy one NOW….. man…
Haha, I so should be a salesperson!! It really is good though. I have no idea how much the thing costs, I didn’t check…
I get all my samples from the gift packs my mum gets when she buys Clinique…
Do they do that in Singapore? You should introduce your mum to Clinique’s magic too ;).
Both my mum and I have really sensitive skin… mom can’t use clinique (not really their fault) she tends to get teeny oil bumps after using.. I do use some of their products though. haha have to be careful with what I use..
Will try to *erhmm* talk the saleslady into giving me free samples.
thanks for the recommendation!
Hehe, good luck!
It was years before I actually had to buy a moisturiser from them, I had so many samples first.
