i also love this! the only annoying thing is that i got the wrong shade.
in store it looked fine but then when i got it home it looks a little too pink on my skin! however when on holidays i use it because if i'm in a hit place i go a little pinker anyways so it doesn't look out of place.

Re: Clinique makeup
I absolutely Clinique! It's pretty much the only thing I use for skin care. Since I'm always using and replacing the same things (the 3-step skin care) I try to buy them whenever they have giveaways. They usually do gift with purchase promotions, so I get to try a bunch of their makeup samples. Most of the time you get a small bag of stuff when you buy over a certain amount ($21? sometimes different? I can't remember!).
So, I haven't really bought much of their makeup besides their face powders, foundations, and eyeliner... but I have so many samples! I really like their lipsticks, and I always get tiny little eyeshadow or eyeshadow/blush palettes. I almost always like those ones. Right now I'm using a little sample palette of Like Mink eyeshadow, and I love it because they're nice neutral colors.
Oh, and you wouldn't believe how many mascaras I've accumulated through these giveaways. The High Definition Lashes one has an amazing looking wand.

I don't have as many shadows since collecting MAC, but my two favorites are Strawberry Fudge and Sunburst. The coral color in the latter works better for me than Paradisco.

Re: Clinique makeup
I have one makeup product from Clinique that I've used lots. The funny thing is that it is a little palette with three eyeshadows that I got as a Bonus Time gift ages ago. It's a white shimmer, a beige shadow and a medium brown shadow, that make a great natural every day look. If the same combo was sold, I'd probably buy it, but I haven't seen it.

Well I know Macy's is going to have gift in October (the 7th actually) and the purchase is still $21.50 or more. Since I work for them I really like ours for once (Macy's one, it has apples on it!) Nordies and Saks too. The others weren't really that special this season. I used to be able to see the gifts from the International stores but they didn't give us that this time :/

Are the colors on the back of the palette still? I could tell ya if we still sell it and if they did come in a set or not

It says "High impact eye shadow trio, Double date & Sugar sugar"
I assume one of the names (probably Double date) is for some sort of duo, since it's really three shades.

Shimmering tones powder is their best product by far.

Yeah the Lip Smoothies we already sell all of the shades but 2 (Berry Boost, Peach Power) and those 2 shades will most likely be limited edition. The new High Lengths mascara will be out in January so we should be getting it anytime now, and I know it's most likely going to be the water resistant formula so you have to use warm water to remove it. I'm probably sure the eyeshadows and blush are going to look like everything else that we sell, I hate how we never get any fun colors! And actually I think there will be 4 eyeshadow duos not 2. That's what our AC said anyway but sometimes she can be loopy! I won't know anything about Spring till our seminar in the end of January.

Re: Clinique makeup
A few years back, my mom was a complete clinique fanatic! She liked it because of her sensitive skin. Then I got her into other products.
Also, last time she went in to buy foundation for both her and myself, the lady at the counter gave us completely worth foundation shades! They were both darker than us and extremely pink. :/
On top of that, it made me break out (superbalanced liquid foundation). I'm not a fan of the eyeshadows. They're not that pigmented unfortunately. I do like their lip products though.

Will do! It sucks I won't have my info till February 3rd tho..that's when I'll go to my strategy to see what's coming out for Spring and Summer!

Ah that sucks I hate it when other Clinique girls match people wrong! I always wonder where did they come up with that shade?! I'm not perfect but I usually do the best I can. And yeah I def do not like Superbalanced either! I have oily skin and it just made me oilier and stick to what little pores I have. Superfit is a nice foundation but the lightest shade is still way too dark for me, seems to be the case with all of my foundations, the shades that do match me I can't wear because my skin doesn't like it, but the formulas my skin does like are all too dark even if it is the lightest shade! I can't win
And eyeshadows are really hit or miss too.

Sorry for bringing this old thread back to life but I have a question about Clinique Makeup.
I would love to try the new Clinique Redness Solutions Makeup since I also use the rest of the anti redness series and it got great reviews over at MUA.
Unfortunately it isn't available here in Germany (yet?) but since I have someone who could buy it for me and send it, it's no problem.
My problem is that I don't know which shade I should buy. I had a live chat with one of their counselors but that didn't help me that much because she didn't know how MAC shades compared to the Clinique shades. She told me to try calming ivory or calming fair but I don't know if that would be the right one. The reviews on MUA are really mixed about what shade for what skin. I'm NC20 at MAC and definitely need a yellowish foundation shade so it maches my neck and decollete.
Does any of you lovely ladies use this foundation or does know how it translates to MAC shades? It would be really appreciated and I would be so grateful for your help.
Thank you in advance. =)
