I picked this up onboard my NorthWest Flight from USA back to Singapore last year. In general, Clinque purchases are usually cheaper in USA than Singapore because its made in USA.I was bent on erasing some slight dark spots on my cheeks and came across this serum in their catalog during the flight home.
This cooling gel-serum of super concentrated, antioxidant whiteners and brighteners works like a whitening spot corrector. It claims to to be able to slough off dead, melanin-filled surface cells with a tri-ball dispenser.
Its key ingredients is comprised of marine collagen & lecithin. Rich in vitamin C to combat dark spots, it features a tri-ball massage roller dispenser that releases a cocktail of brighteners on point of contact. Aids in exfoliation of dead skin cells from surface leaving smoother and more radiant skin.
Vitamin C
- skin brightener
Black Out Yeast Extracts
- blasts melanin clusters apart and disperse them throughout the skin
Scutellaria and Mulberrry Root Extracts
- renew clarity
Yan Kuei Fei and Citrus Unshiu Peel
- for heightened glow
RNA (Ribonucleic Acid)
- fragments to signal skin's natural repair process, mop up damage before it takes hold
I have been using this on the 2 small dark areas on my cheeks for almost half a year every morning and certain nights. Its a slow and long process but I do see a very slight improvement on the spots, the dark spots look slightly lighter and the area looks brighter.
The roller ball is quite cooling to the touch and to the face and it acts as a massaging ball as I apply it on the face.
I actually enjoyed the motion using the roller ball. Its quite fun.
However, in consideration of the steep price for a 10ml serum and the long process for it to work, its not that worth it.
Even though this serum lasted me for quite a while, close to 9 months and its oil-free and fragrance-free but the long list of ingredients kind of put me off.
Its recommended to use twice daily for best results.
How to use :
1) Press button in base to release serum onto roller balls
2) Massage roller ball head into dark spot for five to ten seconds
3) Gently pat spot with fingertip until serum is absorbed
