MY WINTER LOVE STORY WITH CLINIQUE'S MOISTURE SURGE

There are 2 things you should know about me:
1. I am a SUMMER - LOVER
2. I am a FRIDAY - lover
Each winter I curl up into a cocoon of some sort and wait with baited breadth for the sun to start making its way back into my life. I hate feeling cold and having to dress up in bundles and bundles of clothes.
As if I don’t have enough issues with winter as it is, it had to take a toll on my skin too. *sigh*
In spring, summer and autumn I would say I have a combination-to-oily skin. But come winter, my skin is dry and flaky.  And after I put on my foundation, it feels even drier.
I use Clinique’s 3 step (number 3 for combination to oily skin), twice a day, religiously, every day and I swear by it!

The 3-Step Skin System that I use twice daily

So I cleanse with the soap,

exfoliate with the clarifying lotion

and then moisturize with the Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel.


It has made a huge difference to my skin. My skin is much softer now and it looks and feels healthier.
 With winter upon us, my skin still felt a little bit dry after the 3 Step skincare system. I went to the Clinique counter and spoke to one of the consultants. She recommended the Moisture Surge and I am proud to say that I AM IN LOVE!
Now THIS product is my new favourite! Because I have combination –oily skin, I was worried that the moisturizer would be too thick or oily, but Moisture Surge applies easily; it moisturizes and still feels light on the skin.
So after I use the 3 Step, I know put on Moisture Surge and feel my skin drink and shine from thirst relief. You think I am being a bit too dramatic? Try it yourself and you’ll see what I mean.

This is what Moisture Surge looks like inside the jar

I love the packaging- very feminine
