When he said, “my grandma uses Clinique, my mom uses Clinique, and I’ll use Clinique until the day I die.” I felt that. It’s so true! Honestly, he’s right, I’ve used it since 6th grade, and I like to think I have pretty awesome skin.

Weirdly the Clinique products have literally saved my skin. After watching hyram I tried cerave products and my skin literally was so fucking bad (I still love hyram btw ) I just wanted to tell y’all that not everything has to be bad/good for you just because someone said so

Environmental Geosciences Undergraduate here: polyethylene is 100% not good for the environment. It causes serious deformities and reproductive issues in wildlife and while it is still difficult to completely understand the long term consequences we do know that it is negatively impacting the biological systems of marine life and coral reefs. Love how much you care & your voice for sustainability! You're amazing!

Me before watching Hyram: literally no clue about skincare ingredients Me after watching Hyram: hyper analyzing my dog’s shampoo 😂

Hyram is the only RU-vidr I’ll actually watch the ads for

👁👄👁 me: sitting here waiting to see if he mentions moisture surge because i have two tubs of them

Everyone who’s likes this wants Hyram to start his own skincare brand

you sound like u have an accent in the intro 😂

I just want to take a moment to thank Hyram. My skin has truly been transformed. His tips have been a life saver!!!!!!!!

Clinique is my favorite brand. I really adore some of their products which constitute my daily routine. Their formulas and philosophy in general is the fight against premature aging, and the presence of a plethora of antioxidants, proves it. But first of all, NO PERFUME! !

My mom uses Clinique religiously. She has so many allergies that it’s insane, so she’s really picky about makeup.

OKAY here's my request list: Olay L'occitane Charlotte Tilbury (or her magic cream) Neutrogina or do some sort of micellar water comparison between all the popular ones EDIT: maybe also a video on embryolisse products? I bathe in the face lotion basically

Hyram need to do his thoughts on Burts Bees And Neutrogena

Clinique changed my skin!!! Idk if I could ever give it up. I had cystic acne and I’m very sensitive, but I’ve never struggled with Clinique at all! Plus the alcohol that is used in the clarifying lotions is a specifically trademarked alcohol that is NOT the same as Isopropyl. Plus, it is supposed to be stripping, it strips off dead skin and dirt which increases absorption of moisturiser. It’s NOT to be used alone. I swear by it 👀

Moisture surge is literally the only thing that has saved my skin from constant cracking and drying. I remember in 8th grade, I went on a trip with my class to Rome and Spain, and I got the worst face sunburn I’ve ever had. I only had the tiny little moisture surge travel size tube my mom gave me and I PUT THAT SHIT ONNNN. It healed my skin in a week and I didn’t come home with this disgusting peeling, red skin. I’ve been a fan ever since and it’s the one skincare product I will continue to purchase.

Question: can you expand to cover body skincare?? Like would you be interested in making a video on body care? Lotions soaps exfoliating etc?

I’ve wanted to know your thoughts on Clinique for so long!! Also side note, I am so proud of your growth, I know that’s strange coming from a random girl on the internet, but honestly, you’ve helped me so much this year regain confidence in my skin and my friends’ too. Thank you so much, you deserve all the recognition and happiness that this channel brings you! Thank you so much; from me and all of us ♥️

I started wearing Clinique's dramatically hydrating gel with the active cartridge for textured skin (the blue one) earlier this year, it does wonder for my pores and skin. It blurred the pores, controls my oil production. Then I started using the moisture surge series (concentrate and moisture) and whew that one is just SO GOOOOD!

My sister is 52 and her skin looks so young compared to my 7 year younger skin and she is been using Clinique since she was 20. I am beginning to believe that Clinique products keep her Looking young

Okay, here’s my request list: - Hyrams own skincarebrand with only good ingredients for our skin🤞🏼

We NEED hyram to create his own skincare brand or just cooperate with a brand and give us the best skincare line EVER😍🔥

“The truth about Kylie Skin” or “The truth about Shiseido”

I just started using clinique and one week into it my skin feels like heaven. just so u know I have combined/ normal skin

I’ll tell you one thing, between you and Dr Dray, I’ve learned to be more conscious about ingredients in products. I’ve cut out products that have fragrance and I’ve noticed a significant amount of change in my skin in a good way. I’m an oily skin type with dehydration so learning how to balance both out is very hard. Thank you Hyram for sharing so much knowledge with us! ❤️

"The truth about Garnier" Hyraaaam plsss

The 3 steps products by Clinique literally changed my life in a better way👁️👄👁️

i was DREADING the dramatically different moisturizer and now I'm happy :) side note: the moisturizer was like $30 at sephora and i think i bought it in December or january? not exactly sure but it's been almost 6 months and not even half gone. as far as products go, this is TOTALLY worth it.

Oh yassss. My mom was just saying she wants to get some Clinique stuff I’m SO glad I have this for reference now!

‘The truth about Clarins’ is NEEDED!!

"The Clinique cleanser is not that great" *the clinique in my mom's bathroom* "The Cetaphil cleanser is also not that great" *the Cetaphil in my bathroom*

Idk, the clinique clarifying lotion is my favorite toner, that I have used since my mid-20s. I'm in my mid-30s, and have tried many many brands of toners. It does NOT burn my skin at all, does not cause any redness/irritation, and is VERY different from the toners found in drug stores. It exfoliates my skin in the best way possible for me. I have seen my cotton circle dark with the day's dirt on my face when using this product, whereas i see nothing even close to that on having used other toner brands. Maybe my skin isn't sensitive, so it loves this product. My pores are nice and tight. My skin is left feeling fresh and clean. As for the dramatically different gel, I love that I can apply this and not feel my face is all greasy. You must really do have sensitive skin- I have never had any irritation from using this product. Those are the only two skin care products I use from Clinique at this time. The price is just right- the products are not overpriced. Guess if someone has a limited budget, I could see how the product would seem overpriced.

Clinique: 100% allergen free My body: let’s have the only allergic reaction you’ve ever had to any skin care

Try Avene skincare!!

Me with my three step clinique "skin care" 👁👄👁

I just tried the clinique dramatically different moisturizing gel and i have very sensitive skin and it didnt burn at all

you should do “the truth about l’occitane”

I’m not sure if you already made a video but is there a chance you could do “THE TRUTH ABOUT MURAD”

Me: Wipes clinique toner on my face, feeling like a beauty guru Hyram: First things first, NO Me: 👁👄👁

I'm a Research Assistant, and I fricking love the way he evaluates these products. His language choice is scientific and he is very thorough, but also to the point. I particularly liked his comment on polyethylene. I'm not really a huge skin-care user but I'm going to subscribe anyway for these reasons ✨💕🦄

the mascara by them is the BEST tho. so expensive :( you should review burt's bees skincare, and yesto skincare, specifically the yesto cucumbers gentle face wash. I used to like it a lot but now I'm breaking out and nothing in my skincare has changed :(

A video about Fresh would be the best, their packaging is so pretty but I don’t know

I've been using Clinique products for 2 decades now. I absolutely love. From skincare to makeup. I have chemical sensitivity I cannot stand anything with even the slightest fragrance. Except the toner which contains alcohol and I can't get near it.. I'm happy out. The last step which is foundation is like a magic wand on my face. Cleanser. (I use Simple product for toner). Serum. Moisturizer. Eye serum. Eye cream. Face primer. Moisturizer. Foundation. Loose powder. Everyday. I literally dont need Photoshop with my pics. Thank you Clinique.

As to the 3 step system: I absolutely LOVE the toner from clinique. I have been using it for about 10 years and when I used it after a few days I saw amazing results. When I replace it with another toner my skin texture looks horrible after about 10 days. The dramatically different lotion on the other hand has never done anything for me it just sits on the top of my skin. So I guess I have a total different experience.

that intro is what happens when you film with james welsh 😂😂😂😂😂

“Clinique is like the catholicism of cosmetics” hahaha the accuracy omg

Would love to see this video remade, focusing just on products developed made in the last 5 years and talking about the positive strides their parent company is making in terms of sustainability.

I literally just signed in relief when your said favorite product is Moisture Charge

Hyram: *dragging the cleanser to hell* Me who just washed it off: 😳

Hyram can you make a video on the steps of skincare? Ex: 1st-cleanse 2nd........ 3rd..... I feel as though I have the products I need but am confused on what order to use them? And chemical exfoliates Please help 🖤 LOVE YAAAA GIRL 🖤

It was my dream to work for them and I finally did. I have used it for over 20 years and as long as I use my 3-Step twice a day, my skin is happy ❤️ I understand it may not work great for everyone and I go through my phases where I get lazy and don't use it but when I go back to it my son clears up and feels so much better!

“The truth about Eucerin” please

I've been using Moisture Surge moisturizer for a few years and I'm so relieved you approve it! It's truly the best moisturizer but yeah they shouldn't' really say 72 hrs lol

Request list: - Estee Lauder - Neutrogena - Glamglow - Bioderma - KORA

im in a water treatment program at my college. the stuff that goes down the drain goes straight to a waste water treatment plant via a sanitary sewer. sanitary meaning it goes straight from the house to the plant with some pump stations here and there to keep it going (there is also a stormwater sewer and a combined. combined are usually only used in DENSELY populated areas and require a very high capacity treatment plant, or many small ones, at the other end. very rarely do these overflow and usually the plants will make sure it has some form of treatment if that does happen OR the water is so diluted, from rain usually, that it wont have a significant impact if any. when i say "some form" i mean it usually goes thru the plant quicker. not just a splash of chlorine. most of the time when a plant is having high influent itll just reduce the detention time of everything or pump excess into a pond specifically for holding excess water that the plant cant handle) waste in the water received at the plant is filtered out using bar racks, chemicals, and clarifiers ( clarifiers allow the chemicals to work their magic and make the waste stick together causing it to either sink or float where it is then scraped off and put into another area to be either incinerated, dried out and taken to a suitable landfill, or converted into fertilizer. ***fun fact detroit sends ALL their waste over seas cause some company in europe likes it and uses it as fertilizer. these ppl litterally purchased it MANY yrs in advance. crazy right?***. there are also other clarifiers like trickling filters which use existing organism to clarify the water but that is also followed by a traditional clarifier cause these organism reproduce and fall off the media its on need to be filtered out) so really not a lot of the stuff we put down our drains really ends up in the ocean. (granted some of it probably does, but not a huge amount. which ya. that little bit is still realy bad) it, for the most part, ends up in landfills, the air, and our feilds. which is still a reason not to use these things. like do yall really wanna be BREATHING that stuff in? so really it ends up somewhere even worse than the ocean. cause in the air, itll slowly kill anything on the land including trees. which are like.....the main reason earth is habitable. and here is where i plug teamtrees.org/ $1 equals 1 tree closer to saving the friken planet from the sun's fiery rays. in other words Hyram says " YALL SHOULD BE WEARING SUNSCREEN" and he is friken right. so why not help earth put her sunscreen on? hmmm? HMMMM? you heard me. you heard hyram. suncreen is important. trees are earth's sunscreen. lets plant some trees. ***another fun fact. the world has lost about half of its original trees since the rise of humans. thats concerning dont ya think?*** have a beautiful day fam

The Moisture Surge Intense is literally the best moisturizer I've ever used, and I'm no expert but I've used soooooo many different brands (including more expensive ones.) I'm only here because I can't believe more people aren't talking about it!

Definitely need a t-Shirt with „Ingredients don’t lie“ 🙏🙏🙏

Could you do a video of products that are like “Hiram approved?”

the 3 step is the only thing that has definitively and instantly cleared my skin I Stan

This is my eye cream: cucumber juice and aloe vera gel and turmic mix together. Works wonders when you put it in your eye every morning and it last almost a month when you store it in the fridge which adds another benefits of cooling sensation.

It would be really cool to do like a "french girl" skin care review like caudalie, clarins, nuxe - since those brands are getting bigger in the US :) love your channel

Me: :| *sees the vines on Hyram’s wall move in the wind* Me: :)

This skincare brand was there for over 52 years, I bet they know about their own products and customer experience a little bit more than all of us including Hyram together.

I have been using Clinique for years now and it’s honestly a lifesaver for me. My dermatologist recommend me to try CeraVe and Cetaphil but none was working. After that I started using Clinique facial cleanser everyday and wash my face often and it got rid of my acne completely.

His every single week move with the shoulders gives me life ♥️

Please TALK ABOUT “EUCERIN” specially sunscreens

oh my god I don’t know why I was so nervous when he mentioned the dramatically different gel moisturizer bc it’s my holy grail and I didn’t want learn that I’ve been using a bad product for so long BUT Hyram claims that it has a good ingredient list so I’m happy 🥺✨✨

Biggest thing with the clarifying lotions: the skin type two clarifying lotion is one of the only clarifying lotions they make with no salicylic acid. If the alcohol bothers you, there's the 1.0 clarifying lotion that does still have a chemical exfoliant in it without alcohol. I used to work for Clinique for 4 years... I'm not saying he's wrong and I'm not here to sing the praises of Clinique (there's a reason I left) but I didn't really think it was a great analysis of the clarifying lotions since he covered the one formula of them that is pretty different from the 4 others that exist (it's also the only one, to my knowledge, that has menthol in it). Also, with moisture surge 72 hr: the point of the 72hr thing is NOT to tell people not to keep it on that long, the product is supposed to be made with ingredients that sink into the skin and continue to help repair/strengthen the moisture barrier even after you wash your face. I'm no scientist so maybe that was bullshit that they told us when they trained us (I'm not counting this out) but in no way is that company telling people to not wash their face for days at a time 😆

Is everyone ignoring the Australian accent in the into??😂😂😂

NEEEEEEED a truth about La Roche Posay (they are highly recommended for people on accutane but I’d love to hear your opinion) and Glam Glow !!!

i‘ve been struggling with my skin since i was a kid, having not pimples but many little bumps on my cheeks. my skin skips between rlly fucking dry to way to oily. i‘m also allergic to pollen and dust which make my face sometimes breakout or at least worsen the bumps which i then have on my whole face. i had a hard time buying skincare products as i didnt find any labeled for the issues i had. i went through a lot of overexfoliation and overmoisturizing. one year ago i bought the clinique set for dry combination skin and after i stopped using the clarifying lotion (which made my face burn like hell) and only going in with the liquid facial soap in mild and the dramatically different moisturizing lotion (the one for very dry to dry combination) i never had to touch any other skincare product again. it took away all the stress my skin caused me, holding it in balance. i just love how simple the products are and they made me realize that most products i used before only caused more problems. the only thing i wish is moisturizer also containing spf as i hate going in with another cream which often make me break out. i hope they never discontinue this line as these products are my holy grail

Omg what I love Clinique exfoliating toner 2 .Its actually my favorite and I disagree that you can get same results from drugstore products . It makes my skin so clean and smooth it clears all my dead skin my foundation goes on perfectly . At the end of the day it all depends what you prefer so try for yourself guys to make up your mind xxx

Ooh, how about a "Best moisturizers under $40" Some us have 1. Dry skin and 2. No money ;)

Oohhh, I get why everyone’s talking about your accent now - I skipped through the intro so I missed it. I’m Australian and Hyram, I have to say, you’re Aussie accent was pretty good!!

Hi there- licensed Esthetician here. In reference to Clinique's Clarifying Lotion 2 not having an exfoliating ingredient: Acetyl Glucosamine ie a sugar derivative is the elusive exfoliating ingredient, though it has several benefits . Personally, love the ingredient as an exfoliant, especially for sensitive skin but really do not like the product.

“The truth about Vichy” please 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Me: *buys the dramatically different hydrating jelly as my first Clinique product without doing any research Hyram: it's basic but definitely not bad! Me: I'm so proud of myself

I've been a senior skincare advisor at Sephora for a few years and just discovered you recently. Your videos have been so incredibly helpful! I have learned a lot about the dangers of essential oils. Now when I have clients and they ask me about a brand that has fragrance, I can confidently take products out of their hand and say, "TRASH."

"Truth about Estee Lauder"

If you guys only need to hydrate and moisturize your skin, Clinique is doing good with their hydrating jell and moisturizing lotion. I have an extremely dry skin texture, it even peels off in the winter, since I use these two together, the peeling off skin stops amazingly

Pleasee consider my request list: -Estee Lauder Advanced night repair -Bioderma -Sesderma -Are facial brushes good for the skin?

I'd love to see a video about your favorite lip balms - I know a lot of balms don't actually help to moisturize so wanted to hear your opinion :)

As a skin therapist and esthetician, I would not recommend using moisturizer under the eyes as it can cause milia. The skin around the eyes is extremely delicate and thin so anything too rich/heavy like moisturizer would lead to milia formation. You can however blend your nositurizer with a little water to dilute the consistency to prevent that from happening, but I would recommend an eye gel (ex: Yerba mate gel from Good Molecules) or lightweight cream for around the eyes.

About to start crying simply bc this is my whole skincare routine

Hey, Hyram! Any chance you could review the e.l.f. skincare line? I’ve only been using one product (the Hydrating Water Essence) because some of the first ingredients are good ones: glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and niacinimide. There’s a lot of product for a low price which I love but I wanted to know your thoughts.

Please do Neutrogena!!! I’m curious to see your thoughts on the brand ❤️

I've always had the curiosity on male and women skincare: is our skin so different that we need separate formulas or is this just marketing? one thing i noticed is that in the men skincare Alcohol is higher up on the list always.

I used to work for Clinique and it used to HURT my SOUL to sell the Clarifying Lotion to people. I literally stopped recommending the 3 step system to people because I couldn’t handle convincing people putting that on their faces was a good idea. I also hate the Liquid Facial Soap. It’s just bad. Verrry drying. Moisture Surge is the best and is what I ended up recommending to most people who came to the counter looking for new skincare. I’m glad you agree!

My mom has allergic reactions to EVERYTHING, we can’t even have scented detergent in the house without her sneezing from across the house. Clinique is the only skincare and makeup brand that she doesn’t react to. Also I get what you mean about the clarifying lotion but using it once or twice a week is the only thing that kills my body acne.

The 72 moisture surge is absolutely amazing, I love it so much. Definitely recommend for anyone, thanks for this review! We love and appreciate you, Hyram!

I had a really bad allergic reaction to a baby wipe i had used on my face ( I was 12 ) and the clinique dramatically different lotion was the ONLY thing that cleared up a burning rash and Ive been obsessed with clinique ever since, but this is definitely eye opening! Please do Laneige or Peter thomas Roth Next!!

Hiram I am a clinique counter manager in the number one sales in Belk franchise..I AM LITERALLY PLAYING YOUR VIDEOS AT MY COUNTER DAILY!I live for your honesty and chemical /ingredient break down.... 🙌💯

“The Catholicism of skincare” omg truer words have never been spoken 😂

I’ve been waiting for this so so much. My entire skin routine is this brand and I’m so scared to hear the tea. 😬

I’ve been using clinique for 20 yrs now and my skin loves it.

"The truth about" is my favourite series by Hyram just because to me they are enlightening, and I very much appreciate his HONEST and insightful reviews. Thank you!

Finally your reviewing Clinique I love their products. I’m both scared and exited to watch this video because I know I won’t look at the products the same but aghhh here we go . I love your channel ❤️

We need a video on Ole Henriksen, ASAP!! Also, I would love to hear your thoughts about Korres, a Greek brand that bases its products on natural ingredients, and Erborian, a Korean brand!

I'm so glad that you mentioned switching from Lotion+ to the cerave cream. I recently did that and my skin loves it so much more. It's even more moisturizing and I can rest knowing that I can get a huge tub of it for a good price. Definitely think anyone with very dry skin should try it out.

I have an extra sensitive and allergic skin, and Clinique is the absolute only brand that both doesn't give me any rash and personally ever since I switched to Cruelty Free brands, to this day, I've never found any other skin care products that leave my skin as soft as Dramatically products ever did. I finally gave up and I'm buying Clinique again. My face needs it and also the chubby sticks lip moisture, dear god it's the only thing that makes my lips actually moist and not look all cracked. I'm going to share with you some wisdom from my dermatologist: you can have the most expensive beauty product and it can simply not work on your skin, and some times just a cheap hipoallergenic ingredient is going to do it for you, so I'm sorry you had a bad experience with some Clinique products, but I think saying that it's 100% bad or 100% good is a bit over the top because everyone has different skin types. I agree though that Clinique has ridiculous prices 🙄 Some people like me have a delicate skin that can only use their products and their prices are very abusive.
