Clinique has launched its Black Friday offers early, with the Everyday Glow Skincare and Makeup Gift Set now priced at £50, down from £111 on the Clinique website. The deal represents a 54% saving for shoppers.
The set combines skincare and makeup, containing three full-size products and one travel-size item. It includes the Moisture Surge 100H Hydrator, an oil-free moisturiser with a gel-cream texture, and the All About Eyes eye cream, which is infused with vitamin C and can help reduce the look of dark under-eye circles.
What's in the Gift Set?
The makeup portion features a full-size High Impact Mascara in Black, described as 'ultra-pigmented' and promising to give lashes lift and volume for up to 12 hours. The travel-size addition is Clinique's Almost Lipstick in Nude Honey, a sheer-textured everyday lipstick that provides a 'sleek, soft-shine finish' and is small enough to fit into a handbag or coat pocket.
Shoppers can secure a moisturiser, lipstick, eye cream and mascara in this bundle as part of the retailer's Black Friday sale.
Alternative Beauty Sets
Other options are available from competing retailers. The Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Discovery Skincare Set is priced at £30.40, down from £38 at Debenhams. This four-piece set focuses on nighttime skincare, including a cleanser, eye cream, serum and moisturiser, with the Advanced Night Repair Serum promising 'unfiltered morning radiance'.
Boots offers the P.Louise Obsessed for Less Skincare Set for £27, which includes three core products: a jelly-textured makeup remover, a foaming face wash that 'lathers beautifully', and an ultra-hydrating moisturiser.
Customer Reviews
The Everyday Glow Skincare and Makeup Gift Set has no ratings on the Clinique website, but shoppers have shared their thoughts on the individual products, particularly the Moisture Surge 100H Hydrator. One reviewer said: "This gel cream is so good and I've been using it since its first launch. The reformulations over the years have made it even more moisturising than it was originally."
Another added: "My mum has been using this product for over five years now. It is a very light, thin consistency that is easily absorbed and leaves no white cast." A third buyer stated: "This product leaves my skin feeling really smooth and hydrated for a long time during the day."
Some opinions differed, with one shopper noting: "This is more like a gel than a cream. It is nice on your skin but I found it soaked into my skin too quickly before I did my foundation and my foundation didn't spread as easily." The Everyday Glow Skincare and Makeup Gift Set is available from Clinique.
