Fast-absorbing, barrier-strengthening hydration.
This iconic moisturizing lotion is Clinique's solution for very dry to dry combination skin types. Its lightweight, non-greasy texture absorbs rapidly to deliver an immediate sensation of comfort. The formula is powered by a strategic blend of skin-identical ingredients:
- Pure Urea & Pure Glycerin: These powerful natural humectants work in tandem to attract moisture from the environment and bind it deep within the skin's surface.
- Pro-Lipid Complex: This blend of three essential lipids helps replenish and support the skin's natural barrier, which is crucial for locking in hydration and keeping irritants out.
The result is skin that feels supple, looks healthy, and is better equipped to maintain its optimal moisture balance over time.

- Pure & Gentle Formula: The commitment to being 100% fragrance-free and thoroughly tested makes it a safe and smart choice for even the most reactive skin types.
