Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+ with Pump - Review
Clinique's Dramatically Different Moisturizer with its familiar yellow coloring was one of the company's best sellers for decades. Now Clinique's tweaked the original formula and added a "+" to the name. Unfortunately, neither the original Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion or the new, although not-so-dramatically-different, "+" version are worth your money!
The main difference between the original Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion and the "+" version is that the "+" version has a slightly thinner texture and contains a smattering of soothing agents and skin-repairing sodium hyaluronate (the salt form of hyaluronic acid). None of those make the "+" version groundbreaking, however, and in fact, Clinique sells several other moisturizers whose formulas run circles around this one and the original formula.
There's truly no need to get excited about the Dramatically Different moisturizer. It remains an average formula that, while fragrance-free, is mostly void of the types of ingredients research has clearly shown skin needs to look and act healthier and younger; you can get those ingredients from other products Clinique sells if you feel the need to shop this line.
PROS:
Fragrance-free.
Moisturizes without feeling thick or greasy.
CONS:
Not "dramatically different" compared with the original, unimpressive formula Clinique launched in 1968.
Formula pales in comparison to formulas of several other facial moisturizers from Clinique as well as from many other brands.
