Description
Clinique’s iconic first step comes in a gentle formula that works for dry combination skin. The light, quick-rinsing lather removes makeup, excess oil, and surface impurities while maintaining the skin’s natural moisture barrier.
Why It Works
- Non-stripping formula preserves comfort and hydration
- Rinses cleanly without residue or tightness
- Prepares skin for the next steps in the 3-Step System
Key Ingredient
Sucrose provides a soothing, calming effect during cleansing.
How to Use
Apply morning and night. Lather with lukewarm water, massage over face and neck, rinse thoroughly, and pat dry. Follow with Clarifying Lotion and Dramatically Different Moisturizer.
Packaging Note
The bottle uses 96% plant-derived plastic; the cap contains 25% post-consumer recycled material. Formula unchanged — packaging evolved for less waste.
