I used to love this stuff when I was younger because it leaves the skin feeling really refreshed and impurity free. But now, I think it's too harsh and drying. Maybe the alcohol??!

I find that this toner is too abrasive and harsh for the face. It leaves my skin feeling dry and irritated. I've tried the clarifying lotion #2, but was also not impressed with the results. I...

This usually costs SGD$40 a bottle, I got this with the antibacterial facial soap for only $25. What a steal (^^) The alcohol smell is a little overpoweing, it chokes me like ammonia. However, it...

This smells like paint stripper, so no wonder it does such a good job of exfoliating. These clarifying lotions are Clinique's primary weapon in the *three step* saga. They are what gives you the...

If possible, this thing is even more evil than Clarifying Lotion #2. The moment you pour it on a cotton ball, the smell is so strong that it's a sign of how much alcohol this toner contains. It's...
