Clinique Even Better Skin Tone Corrector: A Review

By Kelly Weiren

The Even Better Skin Tone Corrector of Clinique is in serum form and it is meant to undo or reduce age spots, acne scarring, sun damage, and other skin impurities that are attributed to pigmentation. According to many users who have tried it, they are able to achieve the best results. However, some people who used it saw no visible changes.

Why it did not work

Basically, the serum corrects certain skin impurities on the different parts of the body like the chest, hands, and face with a skin care regimen that consists of 3 steps. There are claims that product's benefits are permanent but there are still users who are doubtful because the visible results are lacking. Furthermore, the product label says that it should be used continuously for four to six weeks to get the best results. Unfortunately, the waiting period sounds too long for some users.

Even if there are a lot of users that confirm the product's effectiveness, information regarding its components and formulation is minimal, making it seem harmful. Additionally, there is very little information on how it really works, not counting the claims stating that it can visibly reduce impurities of the skin.

Hefty price tag

The product is also significantly more expensive than other skin lightening products. In fact the $60 price tag for a small 30ml bottle can be a bit over the top for a lot of people. Users are surprised at the exorbitant expense which is still topped by the additional skin care products such as sun screens and moisturizers that have to be used along with it. And these products, all under the same brand are not cheap either.

Despite the product's claims of compatibility to almost all skin types, occasional users still say that effects are minimal to nothing, while others say that aside from the long wait for the product to take effect, skin impurities recur.

Vague list of ingredients

It's also difficult to compare this product to other skin lightening treatments because little is known about it. There is limited information on what the product really contains apart from Vitamin C, glucosamine, Vitamin E and fermented mushroom extract.
