Clinique Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief

Now, although this is not the most manliest of products, it is still totally suitable for even the manliest of skin.

This product is not a moisturiser, it is a skin hydrator. Even the most oily of skin types can be dehydrated and lacking in water not oil (Who would have thought). Moisture Surge: Extended Thirst Relief, aims to replenish the water content in the surface of your skin, giving it an instant relieved feel, leaving it smooth and comfortable but not overloaded with grease.

Moisture Surge contains conditioning birch bark extract, lady’s thistle and green tea as well as calming caffeine, sucrose and aloe vera. And finally it’s allergy tested and fragrance free; meaning that it’s 100% suitable for even the most sensitive skin.

As an oily combination skin type, I really like this. Its super lightweight and hydrating; my skin drinks this in, I never knew my skin could be that thirsty! It leaves skin plumped, calmed and hydrated but without any sheen or residue on the skin. But be careful! This is a wet-gel texture; so use a tiny bit. I find that I can go a bit shiny in my T-zone if I go a tad heavy handed. *Top-Tip* if your skin is dehydrated it is more likely to block pores and cause blackhead and spots. After applying a tiny dollop of Moisture Surge, my skin's thirst is truly quenched! 

Finally this product is ideal for the summer months, when out and about in the heat, as the sun can dehydrate your skin. 

Clinique Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief is available online here or at Boots.

*You can now get a travel-sized 15ml of the Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief for £5.00 here. It's great for trying it out, without buying the large size and most importantly its ideal for travelling.*
