Clinique repairewear laser focus


I bought this serum while I was looking for an antioxidant serum .This extensive promoted serum shone the most and got my eye.


product claim

ingredient; Water, Dimethicone, Butylene Glycol, Polysorbate 20, Methyl Trimethicone, Vinyl Dimethicone/Methicone Silsesquioxane Crosspolymer, Bis-PEG-18 Methyl Ether Dimethyl Silane, Glycerin, Silica, Polymethylsilsesquioxiane, Lauryl PEG-0 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone, Methyl Gluceth-20, Polysilicone-11, Sigesbeckia Orientalis (St. Paul’s Wort) Extract, Retinyl Palmitate, Plankton Extract, Punica Granatum (Pomegranate) Juice Extract, Arabidopsis Thaliana Extract, Sea Whip Extract, Whey Protein/Lactis Protein/Proteine Du Petit-Lait, Pinanediol, Camphanediol, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Protein, Ergothioneine, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, Caffeine, Micrococcus Lysate, Palmitoyl Oligopeptide, Anthemis Nobilis (Chamomile), Linoleic Acid, Sodium Mannose Phosphate, Ethylhexylglycerin, Caprylyl Glycol, Carbomer, Glyceryl Polymethacrylate, Cholesterol, Aminopropyl Ascorbyl Phosphate, Hyaluronic Acid, Sodium Hyaluronate, Tocopheryl Acetate, PEG-8, Xanthan Gum, Sodium Citrate, Sodium Carbomer, Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol [ILN36513]

The weakness of this serum is a lot  of silicon-base ingredients and high in concentration as well.These silicon-base ingredients are comedogenic (clog pore).Pomegranate extract is the most important antioxidant in this product.Retinyl palmitate is actually a derivative of Vit A which is less sensitive than the orginal Vit A (retianol),which is very effective in treating wrinkle by stimulating the collagen deposition. Another technology about this product is the peptide.Peptide is considered a quite new anti aging ingredient and a lot of scientific studies have proven that it works !Beside,it has numerous hydrating (hyaluronic acid,linoleic acid,mannose,cholesterol…)and whitening ingredients(soybean,chamomile,ascorbic acid derivative…),but what makes me confuse is that how all of these ingredients can work with such a limited concentration =)

dropper can control the amount properly!




The serum has no smell and absorb easily since it is very watery.My skin becomes itchy and redden in the afternoon after applying this in the morning.After 3 days,my skin will get redden immediately after put this on.My skin reacted with this serum ,even though it is labelled with allergy tested and 100 percent fragrance free.=(So ,if you have a very sensitive skin,it is better to ask for a sample before buying.This product is more recommended for aging and resistant skin

Pros;high in antioxidant,well absorb,watery,may be effective if u can use this continuously,can be used at eye area
Cons:may clog pore,sensitivity

available in all clinique counters with retailed price RM 200 for 30 ml,50 ml is available also
