Clinique Continuous Rescue Antioxidant Moisturizer

I think I’ve finally found a moisturizer that actually moisturizes well, doesn’t clog pores, contains lots of antioxidants, and comes in stable packaging! For years I either find moisturizers that work great, but that don’t have any antioxidants, or I find a product that clogs pores, or one that does contain antioxidants, but that comes in a jar packaging, which makes the antioxidants worthless.

Clinique Continuous Rescue Antioxidant Moisturizer

I picked up a jar of my favorite moisturizer Clinique Moisture On-line, and got a sample of the Continuous Rescue Antioxidant Moisturizer - for Dry Combination skin in the gift-with-purchase goodie bag. I love the Clinique Moisture On-line because it works so well to keep my skin plump and hydrated all day, yet it’s expensive for what it is because it comes in jar packaging, so in the end it’s only a good hydrator.

For the same price, the Continuous Rescue comes in the tube packaging shown in the picture, and it’s loaded with antioxidants, which should remain stable in the tube. I’ve been wearing this moisturizer for over a week, and it hasn’t caused any breakouts. It doesn’t hydrate quite as well as the Moisture On-line, so I’m excited to try out the Very Dry version soon (assuming it doesn’t have pore clogging ingredients). There’s also a Combination Oily version (which I haven’t been able to find the ingredients for yet either). While the Dry Combination moisturizer wasn’t quite hydrating enough for my skin the bone-dry desert of Las Vegas, I also wore it for a week in super hot and humid New York City, where I was visiting last week. It was plenty hydrating there, and was just ever so slightly shiny on me (which I don’t mind at all).
