I have oily acne prone skin with a lot of melasma. Need full but natural coverage, cause the lines are starting to shine through also - if the foundation is too matte or cakey my skin looks awful. ...

I love this foundation! Sure, a perfect shade match helps. However, the coverage is excellent without being heavy and it wears very well over a basic moisturizer. Minimal touch-ups needed. I did...

This foundation is for combination oily and oily skin. If you have dry skin, you will not like it. I enjoy the coverage and satin finish; a little goes a long way so applying too much will look...

I mistakenly thought this moist-feeling serum foundation would work well for my bone-dry, flake-prone, acne-prone, aging skin. Only after I saw how bad it looks on me did I read the description,...

Very different to the originalWasn't what I was expecting. Very different to the even better foundation. It's quite thick and dries quickly - good if you like extra coverage.
Try it
Even blend foundation..no patches …flawless skinVery different to the original

Love how natural this is on my mature skin, does not look cakeyVery natural
It is thick but very very natural. I love using it on my dry skinFit for purpose
Ive been using this for a few years now, i used to use MAC studio fix which looked amazing but wasnt necessarily the best for the skin and found myself breaking out often. So i switched to this which contains mostly skincare which i like and which has significantly lessened my skins reactivity. This is a good creamy formula that i apply using my beauty blender because with my combination skin a br... Read Morealmost the best
I've been trying to find a foundation that would help cover up impurities but also not so heavy that it clogs pores to create more acne. Now that it's summer, finding a foundation that can last through the heat and not make me look like I'm melting was imperative. I decided on this brand because whilst in the mall they had a stand where they did your makeup and this sample blew me away. It doesn't... Read MoreLove this product. Stays on all day. Feels lovely
Great result. Loved the colour. Covered well but didn't feel heavyPerfect for work
DaniExfoliates a year ago This is my go to foundation for daily use. It took me a few goes to find my shade but I finally settled on CN 18 Cream Whip. Excellent medium-full buildable coverage, that looks so natural. Blurs pores, never oxidises and doesn't break out my skin after use. I apply with my fingers and only use a small amount [half a pump] for my whole face. Works best to pump onto back of hand and apply in light ... Read MoreNot a fan
Provides no coverage at all and goes cakey right away and looks like I have applied a clay mask.Lovely Foundation
I love this foundation- it evens out my skin tone, brightens my skin and is not irritating to my sensitive skin.Not great
I really wanted to love this and it applied really nice but within an hour it was patchy and caked in all of my pores all over my face. I tried switching up my skincare and trying different primers but I could not get this to sit on skin nice at all. I have combination skin with some dry patches and this is a complete no go. Colour was a perfect match though.Next level amazing

As a dry skin sufferer I was so excited to try this. On first application it seemed quite thick and not at all serum like. Throughout the day it just went from bad to worse. It cling to every minute bit of dryness on my face and looked horrendous. I gave it another go and used extra moisturiser and primer. This improved it slightly but still after a few hours wear it looks horrid and cakey. I usua... Read MoreDisappointed
As a committed Clinique wearer, II was excited to use this latest offering after reading the positive Adore review and its listed ingredients. The product promised to make my skin look instantly better, even out my skin tone and provide hydration. Unfortunately, it does not live up to its promiseS. I found it looks and feels dry and ‘cakey’ no matter how much I moisturise prior to application. ... Read More
Absolutely love this!
This new foundation from Clinique is a gamechanger. I have found it perfect for my normal to dry skin with hormonal breakouts. It goes on silky smooth with no problems spreading evenly over skin. I use my fingers to apply. Great coverage without looking cakey, blends well and does a good job of concealing imperfections. Lasts all day, my face feels hydrated but not greasy.

Is Clinique non Acnegenic?
Terry: Go with a dermatologist-tested, non-acnegenic and fragrance-free foundation. Even better if the foundation's been allergy tested, too—and yes, all Clinique makeup meets these criteria. It won't clog your pores, make you break out, or exacerbate other skin issues.
Is Clinique even better foundation water or silicone based?
