Pros:

I guess it does some coverage....but not really alot

Cons:

Expensive, looks fake if your someone like me with alot of scarring and a thin layer won't cover anything. I can feel it on my face. Didn't notice any change in my acne.

I have been using this for a few months now, the idea of it being able to help acne was great, but sadly for me it did nothing at all. I have alot of scarring, more than the acne itself as I don't heal very well and coverage is not too great, thin a layer doesn't hide much and when u put enough to cover it looks fake and feels horrible. I actually tried the acne whole range clinique aswell and using the make up and got no changes with my acne. It dried up my skin and I reckon it gave me more. I have combination skin so I guess it is hard to find the right product as my skin changes so often. I personally wouldn't recommended cause it didnt work for me but everyones skin is different so it might work for others. If you have the funding and willing to give it a go then thats up to you.

Not the best choice...
I used a bottle of it but soon moved on. The feel is just all wrong and doesn't have enough coverage. Much prefer other foundations which irritate less and have better coverage.

Used to love but now feels oily.
As a child of the 90's, I was all about Clinique. But recently it started making me break out quite a bit and I found that my liquid foundation I had loved for so many years started feeling really oily on my skin, and like it was just sitting on top of it. Maybe my skin is changing or my preferences, not sure. But sadly, I have had to give this one up in my quest for clear skin.

Good for oily skin and large pores
I have very oily skin with occasional breakouts (~1-2 big pimples a month) and larger pores on my nose. This foundation actually makes my skin look amazing, nearly perfect. It doesn't make my pores look worse, in fact they look way better. I would say this is a medium coverage foundation with mostly pink/cool undertones (most shades run cool). The finish isn't purely matte, more of a satin finish but when powdered down it will not transfer. It will not look cakey even when I use setting powder, contour, blush, highlight and finishing powder. I found it just as easy to blend as the maybelline fit me matte and poreless. This foundation doesn't break me out or clog my pores (I make sure to double cleanse whenever I wear makeup). Overall, I prefer this to my maybelline foundation, Estée Lauder double wear foundation and the Too Faced peach foundation.

Broke me out in blisters
I'm so sad because this foundation is beautiful on the skin. Makes my face look flawless. I wore this foundation for a really long time and over time it completely destroyed my skin. Do not use sensitive skinned people!

Just ok.
Kept my face matte however the shades changed color when my face was oily.

Dry patches all over face after using, burns while applying.. EEK
I really wanted to love this foundation because I have heard so many good things about it! HOWEVER, this foundation is not for me :( This foundation completely dried my skin out and I have to stop using it! Also, every time I apply this foundation it BURNS my skin. This is not ok, I also think that it is making me break out more and is giving me redness. Maybe I just have SUPER sensitive skin and I react to salicylic acid. I definitely do not recommend for someone with sensitive skin.

Pros:

NONE

Cons:

Oily
Feels heavy
Looks Fake
Orange
Too dark
Last 3 hours
Did not help my acne
Cakey

This foundation, like many foundations from clinique, is a total FAIL. when i put it on, i was hopefull it would get rid of at least a few of my pimples, or at least cover them up while looking nateral. Gosh, was i wrong about that! When i put it on, i looked like an oopa loopa from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (very ORANGE) even in the lightes color. It did not stay on for more than 3 hours, even when i tried WITH a primer, did not help my acne, if anything made it even more noticeable because it caked up where ever i put it. it felt very heavy, and was so oilythat i looked like i had gone for a triatholan when i only had it on for 30 minutes! Ugh i would NOT Reacomend!!

Pros:

It covers my acne...
It matches my skin tone but some days it makes my skin a little tan.. (?????)

Cons:

I have to reapply it constantly. By about 8 hours, most of it has came off.
It covers my acne but I have used better foundations that covered more...

Sure get it if you need a foundation. I like it, but it's not the best one out there.
