Clinique Super City Block SPF Review

Another truly perfect product by Clinique – the Super City Block in SPF 25 & 40 helps to protect your skin against the damaging rays of the summer sun; keeping it looking and feeling fabulous.

QUICK NOTE: Take a look at our Clinique Makeup Masterclass Video with top makeup artist – Jannine.

The Clinique Super City Block is a high-level daily sunscreen in a sheer, weightless formula. It protects your skin against sun and environmental damage with a broad-spectrum of UVA and UVB sun block and antioxidants. As it’s suitable for all skin types, the Clinique Super City Block  is a versatile skincare product that’s perfect for use on you and your girlfriends when out and about in the sun.

I’ve been using the SPF 40 version of the Clinique Super City Block for about 2 months and I’d happily recommend it to anyone. It’s a fantastic product that’s small and light-weight – making it easily portable wherever you go. The only disadvantage I have found is that it’s quite thick and is difficult to spread evenly and thinly over the skin. I combat this by applying tiny spots of the formula over the main areas of the face and then gently massage it into the skin. It also has a distinct, but natural smell to it – but fades soon after application.

I’ve found the best way to use the Clinique Super City Block is to apply it to clean skin after using your Clinique 3-Step Skin Care System. Using the tips of your fingers, gently apply the product to your cheeks, forehead, nose and chin and work it all evenly into the skin to ensure it blends. Also note that it’s also important to pay extra attention to your hair line as this is an area which is often neglected, and suffers from burning. You should always apply the Clinique Super City Block after your other facial treatments, but before your make-up as it works as a great invisible make-up primer. When you wish to remove the product, simply use your favourite make-up removal formula.

The Clinique Super City Block retails in the UK for approximately £15.00 which is a very reasonable price for premium brand sun protection I think – try it girls!
