I have not tried to the serum and see no need to because I have experienced such dramatic improvement with the Even Better Moisturizer. I may try their foundation next. I was not a Clinique customer. I worship them now. I can do a cardio sessions without looking like a tomato when I heat up. I should add to my previous comment that I use the Even Better Moisturizer that came out in 2011.

Been through all the antibiotics and the prescription lotions. I got this as a sample with a gift for purchase last Novemebr. I tried it on a small section at first because I am so sensitive. My rosacea is 98% gone after using this product for five months. Dramatic improvement in the first week. I use the Even Better cleanser now. I don't know why it works on me. If I ever heard that they were discontinuing the product, I would buy as much as a could and try to figure a way to preserve it. I have had rosacea for 25 years.

I currently use metrogel at night to keep flare-ups at bay but it does nothing for the redness. I am pleasantly surprised that the redness is less apparent since I have started "even better". I purchased it to fade some brown spots that appeared after a sun burn last summer and it is doing wonders on those as well. yay!

Certain ingredients like grapefruit extract can possible react on the skin if one is taking certain medications. Otherwise, the ingredients appear very good. For instance scutellaria and cucumber would possibly be good for inflammation. Birch bark is an awesome ingredient in my book as it softens and smooths hair and skin. Caffeine literally wakes up my skin. Many of the other ingredients have antiseptic and antibacterial properties. I am not a doctor these are my opinions, however, I am schooled in herbals many of which are used in Clinque products. If someone has a problem with Clinque, it may be an allergy (items on the ingredients list look hypo allergenic as far as I know) or may have an interaction with an ingredient due to the use of certain medications. Also, unless one has a very bad reaction to a product, it is a good idea to give it at leat 6 to 8 weeks to see optimum results in my experience.

Lots of peeling and that just revealed even darker skin underneath. Went to the Clinique counter after reading an article on Clinique's Even Better products. Tested it, bought the $52 trial size kit, plus the foundation and brush applicator. It's been 5 days and I already see such an improvement! I can already go without any makeup where the melanoma was!!! Well...except SPF moisturizer and some translucent powder to make sure I don't shine. Love it!!!!!
