Clinique Goodies

Hey friends!

I just wanted to say, thank you for reading and leaving comments. It means a ton to have your support :)

Today I bring to you some Clinique goodies gifted to me in a small palette, but who have sisters that are full-sized and ready to buy.

The top two shadows are from the 'Come Heather' color surge eye shadow trio which retails for $21. They are a dark plum and a shimmery nude.

The blush is called 'New Clover' and retails for $23. It is a soft dusty pink.

This is part of the free promotion that Clinique is doing with Tracy Reese.
If you buy $25 worth of product, you get this baby and a bunch of other fun things. Worth it!

'New Clover' is really sheer on my skin. It serves more as a pinky highlight than a blush for me. It takes over 5 swatches to get any color. Maybe this is just because it is a sample? Who knows.

The eye shadows are much better. The nude is matte with glitter embedded. Interesting combo. It doesn't come off frosty at all. The plum is dark and unique. Very smoky and easy to wear.

Final Thoughts: If you have product to buy at the Clinique counter, pick this up! If not, order the 'Come Heather trio' only :)

Price: NA
Color Wearability: 8/10
Packaging: NA
Staying Power: 10/10
Quality/Branding: 9/10

Total: 28/30 = A = Pretty Panda.

Do you usually like Clinique products? I find them reliable, but I am sad about this blush. Does anyone have it in full size?

  1. ohh the plum looks like it would make a gorgeous smoky eye! Too bad about the blush, I suppose it's good for those days when you just want the *barest hint* of color

    1. That's true, it would work great for those days when you want a *super* natural look.

  2. That plum is so pretty! I'm having a plum and burgundy moment and that looks right up my alley!
