Clinique to give skin some R&R

If living in a fast-paced metropolis like Los Angeles is stressing you out, just think about what it's doing to your skin! Pollution, climate, stress, products, tons of things can cause facial redness that's difficult conceal, so Not Pretty! There's a big difference between a sexy flush and what appears to be an allergic reaction -- plus irritated, itchy skin can really damper your mood.

Released this month, Clinique's Redness Solutions Instant Relief Mineral Powder is the newest product in their Redness Solution collection designed to give some R&R to stressed out skin. This unique mineral treatment is a loose powder containing a formula rich in natural anti-irritants to keep redness at bay. Yeah, it's yellow, but don't let that bother you. The powder blends right into you skin and will neutralize any redness and provide an even skin tone; it's especially perfect for those who struggle with Rosacea. The powder contains caffeine and extracts of magnolia bark, poria cocos (mushroom) and citrus grandis peel (grapefruit) which all work to visibly calm redness.

You can use it alone, under, or over your makeup. Try it out at the counter first if you're unsure. Ask one of those lab-coat wearing Pretties at the Clinique counter to put the powder on only one side of your face, that'll convince you! Available for $32.50 here.
