A new-old favorite

I used to wear the balanced makeup, going back to the 80s. Over the years, I tried some other Clinique and other brand foundations. Everything I tried settled into my pores or looked cakey. I tried the super balanced foundation on a whim and I'm so glad! It does not sink into pores or lines and it looks great at 7 pm after putting it on at 6 am. I wear it over the city block spf 25, so maybe it is the combination of those two products together. What is really amazing is no shine. For reference, I am truly a combination skin person. My t-zone can get very oily and my cheeks feel normal. I'm 58 and have some minimal fine lines (thank you Clinique since 1986).

Not near as good as Stay Matte

Very disappointed you don't make the Stay Matte foundation anymore. I've been using it for 30+ years. I don't like this product near as well as the Stay Matte. Not sure what else to try.

Not what I really want

I'm very disappointed in this foundation as well as all the other foundations now offered through Clinique. This has poor coverage and is not a matte finish like they said it was. It was recommended to me after they discontinued my stay matte foundation which I used for 30+ years. Every foundation that has been recommended to me has not been what stay matte was to me. Come on Clinique and bring back my favorite.

Made my skin drier

I purchased this product from Ulta, intrigued by its claim to add moisture where it was needed and to control oil where it is prevalent. I did not see this effect using the product. I have used this product for about a week, and my skin is drier, and my skin quality seems to be regressing. I normally use the Acne Solutions Liquid Makeup; just thought I'd try something new that sounded like a good product. I would love to trade this product out for the Acne Solution, but sadly, I'm sure that is not an option.

Great Foundation!

I have been using this foundation for years and I love it! It has a very natural finish and does not feel heavy. I tried the Even Better foundation but it felt very heavy and I hated the tube that it comes in. Super Balanced just feels lighter and looks very natural. I also like that it is in little jar not a tube. I can see how much I have left and it is easier to get the product out of the jar.

Watery and thin

I have been using Superbalanced foundation for about a month and am not too happy. The foundation is watery and has left little drops on several tops, my counter and sink. It doesn't provide the coverage I'm used to, and I personally hate these glass bottles. They are a pain for traveling and I think it's one of the reasons they had to make the foundation watery… so it would pour out of the bottle. I loved Clinique's Stay-Matte Oil-Free Makeup and used it for years until it was discontinued. It had great coverage and came in a plastic tube which is great if you travel as much as I do. Doesn't weigh down your purse or take up much space. Sadly, i guess its time to find a new foundation brand.

Perfect Foundation

This is the best foundation and I have used it for over 15 years. I never write reviews but I don't know what I would do without this, including the color Petal. The color Petal is the only color, in any foundation, that works for my light, pinky skin. It it light, smooth, spreadable and has no sunscreen or skincare ingredients in it. It evens out my skin and does not irritate my rosacea . It does not settle in lines or pores. There are hundreds of foundations out there, and many have all sorts of irritating ingredients. I have tried others they try to sell in stores, but nothing compares to Super balanced. This is just good, basic foundation! I use a higher SPF in summer and adjust my moisturizer based on time of year. Everything layers perfectly. The bottle is perfect, just take what you need. Thank you Clinique for all your sensitive skin products!
