Clinique Redness Solutions Soothing Cleanser
Hi Beauties,
Ever since I remember, I have extremely sensitive cheeks. In my childhood, whenever I played in the sun, my cheeks would get all red and flushed. It was never itchy nor painful; hence I never paid any attention to it. My friends used to call me “Tomato”. My mum used to warn me from playing in the sun. However, I never paid any heed. I seem to have gifted this trait to my son too.
Last summer, my parents got this for me and my father remarked, “I am almost tempted not to give you this product…I will miss my TOMATO”. I used it last year ( in summer and winter), and was subtly pleased with it.

My Experience with Clinique Redness Solutions Soothing Cleanser
This comes in a green color tube with a silver cap. The product is faintly green in a color with a very nice herbal, extremely mild fragrance. The product is cream based, which has to be applied on dry skin. It dissolves into an oily, non-foaming residue which has to be washed off with tepid water.
It is cooling on the skin, especially in hot summers. However, the cooling effect does not last long. The formula is non-foaming, hence extremely good on dry to sensitive skin. The product on rinsing leaves a non-sticky film (maybe due to silicones), which might protect from further redness, but I find it extremely annoying. This product does reduce my redness extremely well; however I find that this is not a permanent solution to the problem. People with acne, rosacea and extremely sensitive skin may like it a lot. It removes makeup well enough, but I have to use a separate eye makeup remover along with it. On the whole, I find it a good, gentle product which will be beneficial especially for dry to sensitive problem skin types.
The Clinique Redness Solutions has a few other products, which on continuous use together might prove to be very beneficial. It does not have any major harmful ingredients, and I find that it does not dry out my skin, nor does it break me out at all. I also use it on days when I am wearing very minimal to no makeup.’
