Try Clinique Turnaround Body Smoothing Cream (P2,400), which delivers daily moisturization and advanced exfoliation to the entire body, revealing smooth, silky, and soft skin as it eliminates dryness and rough patches.
The cream eliminates dead skin cells as it makes fresh, vibrant cells rush to the surface. Apply the soft, silky cream effortlessly all over your body to provide instant hydration to even the driest body parts. After just three applications, you will notice how the rough skin on my elbows softened considerably. And girls, you know how guys love to touch that area of your arm, so it’s important to keep it silky smooth all the time.
It has salicylic acid, which breaks the bonds that hold dead skin together and provides exfoliation to the outermost layers of skin where it is needed most, shea butter, and other ingredients that regulate cell turnover, make both normal and irritated skin less susceptible to irritation, enhance skin’s natural protection from external irritants, and even make skin appear brighter and more even-toned.
Clinique Turnaround Body Smoothing Cream is now available at all Clinique counters.
