Highlights

  • Hyaluronic acid
  • Best for: Combination skin
  • Best for: Normal skin

Details & care

What it is: A concentrated retinoid treatment in stick form that instantly helps soothe and plump fine, dry lines and targets deeper ones over time, too.

Who it's for: Ideal for all skin types.

What it does: The balm may help instantly plump fine, dry lines and visibly correct even the most stubborn lines, including forehead lnies and frown lines, crows feet, vertical lines around the lips and smile lines. It helps smooth the look of skin's texture and is gentle enough for use from morning to night.

Key ingredients:
- 1% Advanced Retinoid: the same retinoid used in Clinique's advanced Smart Clinical Repair Serum, formulated for high-performance and gentle enough use twice a day. It helps accelerate skin's natural cell renewal to visibly reduce wrinkles
- Hyaluronic acid: delivers soothing hydration to help visibly smooth fine, dry lines

How to use: Apply the balm to lines in the AM and PM. Avoid getting in eyes and avoid direct contact with lips. Use sunscreen and limit sun exposure while using and the week after.

- Paraben-free; phthalate-free; sulfate-free; drying alcohol-free; fragrance-free; synthetic color-free; gluten-free
- Dermatologist tested
- Made in Canada

Clinique

Based on Clinique's research that allergies contribute to skin aging, every Clinique product is allergy tested 7,200 times and formulated to be completely fragrance-free. Eye makeup is ophthalmologist tested. Lipsticks have the added benefit of including moisturizers. And foundations lessen fine lines and wrinkles while improving uneven skin tone and redness.

Balmy bomb
I received this product free from influenster in exchange for my honest opinion. I have used this product for a week in the morning and night with no real difference in appearance of my skin. I have fine lines around my mouth that I thought would be minimized by using this but nothing yet. I wouldn't buy this again but maybe it would help someone else.

Helped wrinkles on my top lip
I have been using this for about 6 months. Saw difference in the wrinkles on my top lip and around my eyes. I was less consistent around my eyes. I am better at applying at night than in the morning.

Very nice item
I have used this retinoid balm for a few days and like it. I like that it is in a stick form vs a cream. Easier to apply around my lips. I would guess that over time the results will be much more noticeable. So far, so good!

Love it but it's small!
As in the title, I love it but it's small. The product keeps the makeup from creasing in my fine lines, it's light weight and blends perfect with makeup. I only wish the product was larger like a stick foundation size. It's about the size of chapstick. I love the stick formulation!
