Clinique Moisture Surge Intense 72H Lipid-Replenishing Hydrator Mini 0.5 fl oz — 72H Hydration, Aloe + Cica

Clinique Moisture Surge Intense 72H Lipid-Replenishing Hydrator is a rich cream-gel mini moisturizer that delivers continuous hydration for up to 72 hours while reinforcing the skin barrier.

This travel-size 0.5 fl oz jar combines activated aloe water, cica, caffeine, and a trio of lipids to supply a rapid moisture boost and help lock water into the skin. Designed for very dry to dry combination skin, the formula soothes, plumps, and improves surface softness without fragrance. Clinique developed and clinically tested this hydrator to perform in extreme conditions, making it a compact option for daily use or as an intensive pick-me-up while on the go.

How does Moisture Surge Intense deliver 72-hour hydration?

The formula starts with activated aloe water and caffeine to pull moisture into the outer layers quickly, then a lipid complex helps seal hydration into the skin’s barrier. Results were measured immediately after application in consumer testing, showing strong short-term protection and hydration. The cream-gel texture spreads easily and absorbs without leaving a heavy residue.

• Activated aloe water provides immediate moisture lift
• Caffeine helps refresh and invigorate dehydrated skin
• Three lipids reinforce the barrier to reduce water loss
• Cream-gel texture balances richness with quick absorption

Will this moisturizer soothe dry or sensitive skin?

Clinique includes cica in the formulation to help calm and comfort dry, delicate skin while remaining 100% fragrance-free and allergy tested. The product is dermatologist tested and designed to minimize irritation risks typical with richer treatments. It’s suited for skin that needs both nourishment and a gentler touch.

• Cica for calming and visible comfort
• Fragrance-free formula to reduce irritation potential
• Allergy tested and dermatologist assessed
• Rich yet non-irritating cream-gel base

How should I use the mini 0.5 fl oz jar in my routine?

Apply a small amount to clean skin morning and evening, or whenever skin feels dry. It works well under makeup as a hydrating base and can be layered over serums or treatments. The mini size is convenient for travel, sample testing, or carrying in a purse for midday replenishment.

• Use after cleansing and serum application
• Apply morning and night or as needed for dryness
• Layer under makeup for a hydrated base
• Compact jar for travel or purse use

What makes this different from other moisturizers in the Moisture Surge line?

Moisture Surge Intense is the richest option in the Moisture Surge family, formulated specifically to support very dry skin with lipid-replenishing technology. While lighter Moisture Surge variants act as refreshing water-based hydrators, this Intense version emphasizes barrier repair and sustained moisture retention. It’s formulated to deliver noticeable plushness and smoothness for longer periods between applications.

• Focused on lipid replenishment for barrier support
• Stronger hydration level suited to very dry skin
• Designed to extend hydration up to 72 hours
• Still lightweight enough for layering under makeup

Who is this for: Clinique Moisture Surge Intense 72H Lipid-Replenishing Hydrator mini is ideal for anyone with very dry to dry combination skin who needs powerful, travel-friendly hydration and barrier support. Choose this mini jar if you want an intense, soothing cream-gel that you can test before committing to a full size, carry while traveling, or keep on hand for seasonal or environment-driven flare-ups of dryness.
