Clinique Clarifying Lotion 2 is a dermatologist-developed, exfoliating toner designed for combination to dry skin. It's the second step in Clinique's 3-Step Skin Care System. This lotion gently removes dead skin cells, dirt, and debris, revealing smoother, clearer skin and preparing it to better absorb moisturizers. It also helps to minimize excess oil and keep pores clear for those with oilier skin, and helps remove surface flakes for those with drier skin. 

Here's a more detailed look:

Key Benefits:

• Exfoliates:Removes dulling flakes and dead skin cells, revealing a smoother, brighter complexion. 
• Preps for Moisturizer:Removes surface buildup, allowing moisturizers to absorb more effectively. 
• Clears the Way for Hydration:Helps skin become more receptive to hydration and treatment products. 
• Addresses Specific Skin Needs:For oilier skin, it helps minimize excess oil and keep pores clear. For drier skin, it helps remove flakes that can hinder moisture absorption. 
• Reduces Appearance of Fine Dry Lines:May help diminish the appearance of fine dry lines for a more youthful look. 
• Gentle and Refreshing:Formulated to be gentle enough for daily use (twice a day) while still being effective. 

How it Works:

Clinique Clarifying Lotion 2 utilizes a combination of ingredients, including witch hazel and acetyl glucosamine, to gently exfoliate and remove dead skin cells and impurities. This process helps to improve skin texture and tone, revealing a smoother, brighter, and more radiant complexion. 

How to Use:

1. Apply twice a day, morning and night, after cleansing with Clinique Liquid Facial Soap Mild.
2. Use a cotton ball to gently sweep the lotion over the face and neck, avoiding the eye area and lips.
