Put your hand up if you can’t get enough of Clinique beauty products like Clinique makeup.
Yep, we’ve got both hands up for this one!
If you’re shopping around for the best Clinique makeup products, call today your lucky day.
We tested a bunch of products from Clinique’s makeup range and have come up with a list of those you really can’t go without trying.
1. Eyeliner: If it’s a smoky eye look you’re after, you can’t go past Clinique High Impact Custom Black Kajal Eye Liner to add impact to your peepers. This Clinique eyeliner is a dream to apply due to its super-soft, pigment-packed tip. The smudge- and budge-proof formula withstands super-hot and wet environments for up to 12 hours. That means you can smoulder even when you’re sweating.
2. Eyeshadow: A Clinique eyeshadow palette like Clinique Eyeshadow Quads make it super-easy to build a smoky eye look. Morning Java is the perfect compact: a melange of beige and brown tones that work a treat on all eye colours.
3. Mascara: Then, finish off with some Clinique mascara. Clinique High Impact Mascara is by far our favourite due to its buildable formula. The skinny mascara brush may seem tiny compared to others on the market. But its size actually makes it easier to reach tinier hairs at the inner corners and on the bottom lid.
4. Foundation: Another don’t-miss from the Clinique makeup range is Clinique Even Better Clinical Serum Foundation SPF20. It’s just hit shelves, and we simply can’t get enough of the stuff. This liquid treatment makeup is packed with good-for-you ingredients such as Hyaluronic Acid, Salicylic Acid, and Vitamin C. Exclusive UP302, Clinique’s dark spot-fighting ingredient, makes this a standout product in the Clinique makeup range. The glowy formula even features SPF 20 to boost the sun protection you always apply as part of your skincare routine. The brand’s research says it all: after 24 hours of wearing this serum foundation, skin is 56% more moisturised. That’s seriously good.
5. Concealer: Don’t forget to even out your skin tone with a few dabs of Clinique Beyond Perfecting Super Concealer. Touted as a must-have when it comes to Clinique beauty products, this product really does live up to its name of being a *Super Concealer*. It can mask discolouration without moving or caking after a few hours of wear. In fact, the brand claims this product can last up to 24 hours! Not that we condone wearing your makeup for that long, but it’s reassuring that the product can go the distance when you want it to.
6. Cheeks: Who knew that applying blush and contour could be this easy? Our favourite Clinique blush, Clinique Sculptionary Cheek Contouring Palette, is the ultimate multi-tasking product. The compact contains 3 complementary shades to help you sculpt out your cheekbones while you add a healthy flush. When you’re done, you can even run your brush (with any leftover product) over your eyelids for a monochromatic look that just works.
7. Lip gloss: If it’s a Clinique lip gloss you’re after, you should try Clinique Pop Splash Lip Gloss and Hydration. This Clinique lip gloss is eye-grabbingly shiny and seriously nourishing for your smackers but never feels sticky after you’ve applied it. Clinique Pop Splash also comes in a host of colours—from pared-back pinks to pack-a-punch purples—to suit different tastes.
8. Lip balm: When it comes to iconic Clinique makeup products, the first item that comes to mind is Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm. This swivel-up crayon lippie can moisturise, soften, and add a splash of colour in a single swipe. The reason why Chubby Stick lip balm is so incredibly popular is because it’s a low-maintenance product you can wear every day, on any occasion.
9. Lipstick: As for our favourite Clinique lipstick? We can’t get enough of Clinique Lip Pop, which fuses a primer with a lip colour to keep your lips from chapping and prolong wear time. If you’re someone who steers towards bright lip colours, we highly recommend the shades Party Pop (fuchsia), Poppy Pop (coral), and Papaya Pop (medium pink).
The bottom line: Clinique makeup is second to none, and there really is something for everyone. From building a smoky eye look with a Clinique eyeshadow, eyeliner, and mascara to completing your look with a Clinique lip gloss or lipstick, you're seriously sorted.
