Overview

A serum base of vitamin C, salicylic acid and hyaluronic acid carries the pigment in this Clinique foundation, aiming to cover fully while treating dark spots and texture. It wears with a satin matte finish and adds sun protection.

Coverage that also works on dark spots and texture is the case for buying it. Full coverage and a matte finish can feel heavy on very dry skin, which the oil-free formula does not target.

Who it's for

Long workdays and humid weather suit a sweat-resistant matte base. Those who want a light, natural look should choose a tinted moisturizer instead.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Full coverage that resists sweat
  • Broad spectrum sun protection
  • Targets dark spots and texture
  • Fragrance free and non-acnegenic
Cons
  • Shade here is very fair only
  • Matte finish may cling to dry patches
  • Full coverage can feel heavy

Performance notes

Salicylic acid and a matte, oil-free base control shine, while hyaluronic acid limits settling into dry lines. Wear depends on skin prep, since an oily base breaks down any foundation faster.
