Answer 1

I would have to say I love Arbonne and have been using them for quite a while. The best form ARBONNE is that they are botanically based and the products are formulatted without mineral oil and without animal products. Mineral oil is the 2nd worse thing for the health of your skin the 1st thing would be the sun. Animal products come from Rendering Plants and they pick dead animals and they put it in a huge pot and smash everything down and boil it and the oil that comes up is what other companies use to formulate their makeup and skin cae products. I found this site and it has helped my family and my friends. They have a variety of products for everybody..... their makeup is just amazing how the colors really paint and last without harm.....https://secure.myarbonne.com/arbonne/arb...

The best thing is that you can shop online, you will receive it in your house and if you don't like it you will get a refund .... they are really amazing .....

also, the toxins we can see in the "beauty" products, as seen in fox news well this is the link.... http://easylink.playstream.com/ydc/arbon...

Clinique is OK. I think it all depends on what products you like to wear on your face. I like to keep a natural look to my face and I'm only 23 yrs old so I don't want to cake makeup on my face when at my age I don't need that much. So I use a light concealer for under my eyes and any other problem areas.
Clinique has some great concealers but I prefer not-so-expensive companies like Rimmel. They have a concealer called HYDRASENSE Flawless Concealer that I really love and use daily.
The other thing I always wear is blush. Don't go cheap on blush. The more expensive ones look better and stay on longer. I love MAC blush. The color is #4. It's sort of a natural blushing pink color that looks great on anyone. I also like to use a loose bronzing powder or highlighting powder. I have tried Clinique's Crushed Candy glow crazy powder highlighter and it's OK but I actually prefer Glimmer Bronzer by Bonne Bell!!! The cheaper stuff is truly better sometimes. I get so many compliments on my skin when I brush on the Bonne Bell Glimmer Bronzer.
I usually top it off with a shiny red lipgloss...any brand will do. Clinique has good blush and perfume but I was absolutely disappointed by their skin care line. I suggest you just try different brands and you will find out which works for you that way. Oh yeah...don't be afraid to shop Ebay for makeup. I get my MAC blush for so cheap on there...brand new.

They are all excellent companies.Estee Lauder is the most established;the Lauder company owns Clinique,Estee Lauder,Prescriptives and Bobbi Brown(although Bobbi Brown is in charge of formulating her makeup line).If you really want a foundation that matches your skin tone,go to Prescriptives and get color printed.You can get a close match with already made up foundations or have a foundation custom made.I've had powder especially made up and it's not too expensive.But do feel free to mix and match,using different companies;that's what professional make up artists do.You may use one company for foundation,another company for mascara,another company for eye shadow...I do and I've been wearing make up for years.It's a good thing to have a variety of products available to use.

Answer 4

ok, So right that's my opinion on the two. i like Clinique's anti-getting old commencing up, it delivers super coverage and it feels so gentle on your face. the only criticism that I even have with it fairly is that it makes ME ruin out once I circulate away it on all day. SO, bare Minerals i think of. additionally has an excellent coverage. even nonetheless it would desire to reason me to experience cakey if i've got not got on some type of moisturizer, yet I even have dry epidermis. this is hassle-free to prepare on your face and it does not take lots in any respect. i think of for the linked fee, i might choose for the bare Minerals. yet once you like liquid, or have dry epidermis, use the liquid

Answer 5

I love clinique & Estee Lauder. My boss wears bare minerals, and LOVES it... She has roseasha (dont know if that is spelled right). And you would never be able to tell... Looks great on her! I havent used smash box, but I always see them using it on the style network!! I hope this helps!

Answer 6

well i'm male and i dont' wear 'make up' but Clinique does have a line of skincare products for both men and women...i use their cleansing and moisturizing line for men and it does incredibly well and keeping my skin in great shape. i'm nearly 40 and just started noticing about two years ago the 'early stages of crows feet'...lol....but since then i use the clinique moisturizers and their full line and this has DRAMATICALLY reduced my 'crows feet' and overall improved the appearance of my skin.....it now has a much healthier look and feel to it....hope that helps some

Clinique is amazing

Been loyal to them since I was 15

Nothing else compares, in my opinion

The 3-step is a must!

Answer 9

I tried the mineral stuff, and it looked like I wasn't wearing any makeup--and NOT in a good way. It's fun to try all different makeup brands--try 'em all! Try MAC--their stuff is awesome too.
