Style, Decor & More: Great Looking Skin Just Got Easier! {Clinique Pep-Start Skincare}

Great Looking Skin Just Got Easier! {Clinique Pep-Start Skincare}




Imagine having smoother, glowing skin with less effort. That's exactly what happened when I began using Clinique's new Pep-Start products! Pep-Start is a collection of easy to use, multi-tasking products designed to energize your skin and leave your skin perfectly prepped for the day ahead. Clinique Pep-Start realizes that women are busy and don't have hours to spend on a luxurious beauty regimen, and so they created amazing multi-tasking products to help save time, while not giving up any of the important steps needed for great looking skin!  



First, there's Pep-Start's 2-in-1 Exfoliating Cleanser. Clinique's Pep-Start cleanser added gentle bamboo beads to their cleanser, so that every time you wash your face, you are removing dead skin cells, too! Removing the skin's top layer of dead skin cells is super important for increasing absorption of your moisturizer and revealing healthy, glowing skin. If you follow my blog, you already know that I wouldn't dream of applying a moisturizer without exfoliating first.


The very first time I used Pep-Start's cleanser on my face it felt incredibly clean without feeling stripped. I knew this was a product that I would absolutely love. The bamboo micro beads are ultra gentle on my sensitive skin, too. This is very important when you are using it as a daily cleanser. To use it, splash warm water on your face and simply squeeze out a dime-sized amount of the cleanser. Distribute the cleanser for a full minute using a light, circular motion and avoiding the eye area. Rinse well. That's it! You're done exfoliating and cleansing.

My skin is hyper-sensitive so gentle exfoliation is a must. I'm happy to report that after ten days of use, Clinique's Pep-Start 2-in-1 Cleanser did not irritate my skin at all and it delivered on its promise of softer, glowing skin! My pores even appear smaller which is a plus! 

After cleansing my skin with the Pep-Start 2-in-1 Cleanser, I apply Clinique's Pep-Start Hydroblur Moisturizer. It is a dreamy, creamy moisturizer that quickly absorbs into my skin leaving behind a strong dose of hydration. Now I know what Clinique means by "hydroblur" because the velvety smooth feeling on the skin magically blurs imperfections and is the perfect base for my foundation. This is yet again another multi-tasking product acting as both a moisturizer and primer in one!  It's love at first touch and I love the flawless finish of my makeup! 


As someone who develops milia (tiny white bumps on the skin) easily, I often shy away from trying new undereye creams, but when I squeezed a tiny amount of Clinique's Pep-Start Eye Cream, I could see it was a fabulously light formula. It absorbed quickly into my skin and I was super excited to try it.




Pep-Start's Eye Cream is packed with powerful peptides that soothe, cool and refresh my under eye area, which is a great pick-me-up for tired eyes any time of the day or night. The compact size of this brilliant tube also makes it a must have to keep in your bag for on-the-go application.


And last, but certainly not least, are Pep-Start's Quick Cleansing Swipes...


To be honest, I don't use cleansing wipes all that often and usually save them for times when I'm simply too tired to wash my face. But, I really do love Pep-Start's Cleansing Swipes! I use them to keep cool, clean and fresh in the sweltering heat we've been having lately. You know, the days where you step outside for five minutes and it feels like you've been in a sauna for twenty minutes. Wow! The wipes freshen me up in a jiffy! And since Pep-Start is all about multi-tasking, I'm cleaning my skin, removing dead skin cells and surface debris, and providing my skin with a light dose of hydration with every swipe. Super convenient, huh?! Love!

The Bottom LineIf your skin is dull and your makeup doesn't go on flawlessly, give Clinique's Pep-Start a try! You will not only save time, but you'll look great, too!
