IMHO in terms of a face wash clinique will be the one for you, for some reason I find Kiehls face wash to be slightly dryingrum said:Reading on the net that the healer is (was?) discontinued but apparently it's a totally different product altogether from the soother. Anyway, ordered a tiny sized bottle (15ml) of the soother to try it out.
Going to go to both Kiehl's store and a Clinique counter to try out the face wash and moisturisers too.
Right now I'm using dermalogica products for face wash and a few others to compliment it but it seems my face is arguing with everything. Unfortunately that's why I've put up by CF balms up for sale. Stupid face!!
Strange how company's can give a damn and other can't when both are meant to be reputable. If ever you get a chance give clinique's cream shave and facial scrub a chance I would send you some samples but I'm all out. I'm waiting for their newsletter with discounted goods atm. Having oily and dry skin patches is actually quite common make sure this is actually the case and they aren't fobbing you off just to buy more products.... You know your skin best.rum said:Ended up going to Kiehl's where the very helpful sales rep sat down with me and did a test on my skin (forehead and cheek). Turns out I have very oily skin with some parts being quite dry. Weird.
But he gave me some samples to control my oil. So far results feel great! But going to try them for a few days and will see. I'm dumping dermalogica for sure.
Clinique was a disappointment in store. Out of three counters I visited, only one seemed interested in helping me out but only after I begged. None had any samples whatsoever. Anyway bought the soother in a 15ml travel size from eBay and will give that a go when I get it.

Nishy said:Thanks for letting us know how you got on with the Clinique Rum. Are you planning on trying kiehls facial fuel at all? I find it slightly more viscous than the Clinique.
To be honest I don't, I find it is fine as it is, send me your postal address and I'll send a sample of Kiehls over to you, it's going to be much more on the lines of what you want.rum said:Nishy, out of curiosity, I wonder if you follow with a moisturiser as is recommended with the Clinique Post Shave balm? It's great as a balm but it does lack moisture and in my opinion could moisturise a bit better....

I tend to have slightly oily skin, which is prob why the clinique being more milk like in texture is ok for me. I really do like it's soothing properties though. Kiehls is slightly 'heavier' and more moisturising to the touch imo but best way is to try itrum said:Nishy said:To be honest I don't, I find it is fine as it is, send me your postal address and I'll send a sample of Kiehls over to you, it's going to be much more on the lines of what you want.rum said:Nishy, out of curiosity, I wonder if you follow with a moisturiser as is recommended with the Clinique Post Shave balm?

Ok thanks. I think based on my experience with the Clinique today, it's far too drying for my skin despite going on very smoothly.

Lol I wonder sometimes how accurate they really are as skin changes throughout the day/weather/etc etcrum said:Nishy said:I tend to have slightly oily skin, which is prob why the clinique being more milk like in texture is ok for me.

Ironic thing is that when I had my face analysed at Kiehl's they told me I had very oily skin!!
