Clean & Clear Morning Burst Shine Control Moisturizer Review

Photobucket

I have been jumping from one moisturizer to another for years now.
I don’t know why but I just cannot seem to find the perfect one.
The ones that I tried either made my skin dry or made it extremely oily.

Until…my sister brought home the Perricone MD Cold Plasma!
It is the most perfect face moisturizer ever. Not only did it decrease my breakouts but it also reduced my oiliness.

But wait, I’m not doing a review on that moisturizer. Today, we are going to be talking about the CLEAN & CLEAR MORNING BURST SHINE CONTROL MOISTURIZER.

After I ran out of the Perricone MD, I had to go pick out a temporary moisturizer replacement since that one costs $100! Crazy right? So I tried the Clean & Clear Morning Burst since I have been hearing a lot of nice things about it.

Clean & Clear Morning Burst
Shine Control Moisturizer

Directions: Use daily after cleansing. Apply small amount to face and neck to help keep your skin looking fresh and shine-free throughout the day

I bought mine from Big Lots for $4.99.
One bottle is 4 fl. Oz. I bought mine in March and up until now, I have not finished it.
All you need is a dime size on your palm and you’re good to go.

Clean & Clear Morning Burst is VERY oil Free.
It moisturizes all-day. And it gives you long-lasting shine-control.

The color of the lotion is just pure white. It may feel a tad bit sticky at first when applying it, but it dries overtime and it leaves your face soft and smooth.

Like the Perricone MD, Clean & Clear also decreases my breakouts. I’m always scared to try new face moisturizers since my skin is very sensitive and I breakout easily but with Clean & Clear, my face stays acne-free.

It has a light powdery smell to it, like a baby powder. It always reminds me of my younger days every time I apply it on.

Remember, it is extremely important to apply face moisturizer, day and night, every day!
It will renew and help smoothen your skin by the end of a long tiring day.

MOISTURIZE. MOISTURIZE. MOISTURIZE.

What moisturizer are you using right now? How is it?


What makes people look youthful is the quality of their skin and I don't think you can change that.

  1. I laughed when I read from 100$ to 4$ moisturizer lol. Clean and Clear products don't work for me though :(. But the current Moisturizer i'm using for day and night is THE BODY SHOP Vitamin E Moisture Cream and its my 2nd tube. I'm liking it so far so good. ^_^

  3. Wow, $4 is a lot better than $100. I haven't tried the Perricone but have heard great things about it. Right now I'm using Roc which I love, but it has retinol and might be too strong for you. xo

  4. @Debby: It really is. Hmm, Roc? I've never heard of it before.

  9. @Lydia: That's what my mommy uses. She also has the L'oreal one. Not really sure what it's called.

    @Leenda: I definitely get you! Ever since i've started using this, my face hasn't been as oily as it normally is. You should definitely give it a shot. :)

    @Francesca: no problem!

    @Frances: Sound like a great product!

  17. I'm using one from Givenchy Make-up (it was a gift, I'd never buy a cream for 60 euros) and it feels ok . How much is this cream?

  18. I have the SAME problem! I also really hate feeling anything heavy on my face so something lightweight is a must. Currently, I'm using Olay Total Effects SPF 15 (cuz I'm old LOL) and though it feels heavy going on, it quickly becomes lightweight when patted on.

  21. I have heard ghood things about Perricone, and great quote at the end, I think that is true. because good skin shows you are healthy and being healthy is the most important thing to being beautiful I think!
