Clinique CX Antioxidant Rescue Serum Review
Clinique CX Antioxidant Rescue Serum Overview
Clinique CX is the high end anti-aging skincare product line that Clinique only makes available at a few upscale department stores. The line is pricier than most of Clinique’s products, as you might expect. Pricy can be okay, but only if what you’re getting is worth what you’re paying. So we’re looking at Clinique CX Antioxidant Rescue Serum to try to determine whether or not this one is.
The promise of Clinique CX Antioxidant Rescue Serum is that it immediately help restore an even tone and clarity to your skin’s appearance. They call it a “shock absorber” to rescue skin from the cycle of Stress-Irritation-Damage before it gets to the damage part. And the damage they mean is red, blotchy, dull looking skin with increased propensity for lines and wrinkles.
From that description it would seem as though Clinique CX Antioxidant Rescue Serum approaches aging skin a bit differently than most products that focus on plumping out wrinkles and tightening and firming skin. It works on the principle that calm, relaxed skin handles better the stresses of life, and leads to more beautiful, radiant skin.
Clinique CX Antioxidant Rescue Serum Ingredients and How They Work
The question is what exactly does Clinique CX Antioxidant Rescue Serum use to make skin more comfortable? The serum is water and aloe based, and it includes antioxidants (Sea Whip Extract, Algae Extract), skin-identical and skin communicatiing ingredients like Yeast Extract, hydrators like Linoleic Acid, Glycerin and Hyaluronic Acid, and Vitamins like E, C, and B. Anti-inflammatories, like Chamomile, are there too.
You should apply Clinique CX Antioxidant Rescue Serum after cleansing both morning and night. It is also recommended that you use it before and during travel to help your skin remain calm in the face of changing time zones and weather patterns.
