Clinique Moisture Surge Intense face moisturizer 1 fl oz — 72H hydration, cream-gel with aloe & cica

Clinique Moisture Surge Intense 72H Lipid-Replenishing Hydrator is a rich cream-gel face moisturizer that delivers an immediate moisture boost and helps maintain continuous hydration for up to 72 hours.

Created for very dry to dry combination skin, this Clinique hydrator pairs activated aloe water and cica with a lipid trio to soothe, plump, and reinforce the skin’s barrier. The texture balances a comforting cream with a lightweight gel finish so skin feels soft, smooth, and refreshed without a heavy residue. Clinique formulated and tested this moisturizer to perform in harsh conditions and designed it to support everyday skin comfort and resilience.

How does Moisture Surge Intense keep skin hydrated for 72 hours?

The formula combines fast-absorbing aloe water and humectants that draw moisture in with a blend of lipids that help lock that hydration into the skin. This two-step approach — immediate hydration plus barrier reinforcement — helps maintain moisture levels even after a single application. Results from consumer testing indicate noticeable hydration and comfort immediately after use.

• Activated aloe water and humectants for rapid moisture delivery
• Lipid-replenishing trio to strengthen and seal the skin barrier
• Cream-gel matrix that absorbs without a greasy finish

Will this moisturizer soothe dry, sensitive or stressed skin?

Moisture Surge Intense includes cica, an ingredient known for its calming properties, and is formulated to be fragrance-free and allergy tested. These features help reduce the chance of irritation while offering comforting hydration for skin that feels tight or stressed. Clinique also subjects formulas to dermatological review to align with sensitive-skin needs.

• Cica for soothing and comfort
• 100% fragrance-free and allergy tested to minimize irritation
• Dermatologist tested for compatibility with delicate skin

How does the texture feel and how should I use it in my routine?

The product has a rich cream-gel texture that melts into skin, giving a plump, dewy finish without heavy weight. Use it as the final hydrating step in your morning and evening routines on cleansed skin, or layer it over serums and treatments to lock in their benefits. A little goes a long way: apply pea-sized amounts across the face and gently press to distribute evenly.

• Cream-gel absorbs quickly for comfortable everyday wear
• Apply after serums or treatments to seal in benefits
• Suitable for AM and PM use on cleansed skin

Is this product appropriate for use in extreme weather or cold climates?

Clinique performed consumer testing in harsh conditions and reports users felt their skin protected and hydrated immediately after application. The lipid-focused formulation is designed to help fortify the skin’s barrier against moisture loss that can occur with cold, dry air. While individual experiences vary, the product targets skin comfort in challenging environments.

• Formulated to help reduce moisture loss in dry climates
• Consumer testing included extreme cold conditions for performance reference
• Lipid support to reinforce barrier against environmental stressors

Who is this for: Clinique Moisture Surge Intense 72H Lipid-Replenishing Hydrator is intended for people with very dry to dry combination skin seeking a deeply hydrating, soothing moisturizer that supports the skin barrier. It suits anyone looking for a fragrance-free, dermatologist-reviewed cream-gel to add lasting moisture and comfort to their daily skincare routine — especially useful in colder or drier climates.
