Details & care
What it is: A dermatologist-developed lotion that's Clinique's #1 face moisturizer. The silky, fast-absorbing moisturizing lotion with pure urea and glycerin rapidly strengthens the skin barrier.
Who it's for: Ideal for very dry to dry combination skin types.
What it does: The daily moisturizer provides 8-hour hydration and soothing moisture for your face. It hydrates to soften, smooth and improve by replenishing skin's oil–water balance for a healthy complexion. The skin-strengthening formula strengthens skin's own moisture barrier so more moisture stays in. The silky formula slips on easily and absorbs quickly. It's suitable for post-procedure skin as soon as one day after a nonablative laser procedure*.
*Shown to be safe for use following a nonablative laser treatment in a 14-day clinical usage test.
Key ingredients:
- Pure urea: a humectant that occurs naturally in skin. It helps pull in water and bind moisture to skin to help keep it hydrated and balanced
- Pure glycerin: a powerful humectant that supports your skin's natural moisture barrier by attracting moisture from the air and retaining water in skin to help keep skin hydrated
- Pro-lipids: three pro-lipids help support skin's natural barrier
How to use: Spread the moisturizer all over face and throat, or where needed, twice daily. For best results, use after Facial Soap and Clarifying Lotion (sold separately).
Pro tips: Clinique’s dermatologist-developed three-step routine is simple, effective, iconic. Created by the brand's founding dermatologist, 3-Step Skin Care is scientifically designed to create healthy skin. Just three steps, three minutes, twice a day. Each step is tailored to your Clinique Skin Type.
Step 1: Cleanse with All About Clean™ Liquid Facial Soap (sold separately).
Step 2: Exfoliate with Clarifying Lotion (sold separately).
Step 3: Moisturize with Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+™, oil-free gel, lightweight jelly or rich cream.

negative 5 stars if I could!
I still miss the original DDML! Ever since the creation of + version I have been unable to use! It is greasy and non absorbent! I relied on this moisturizer for so many years and I still mourn the loss of my favorite product.

Most gentle cream I've used for over 20 years
I had the $20 Nordy so the price for this large size halved, fewer bucks than on ebay. I'm thrilled for I am 85.5 yrs old and have a super-tight budget. What's great about this moisturizer? I can use it on the most tender places and no burning. Gentle and rich as well. As we age, we dry out, no fun. Face feels dry and tight but after using this cream, nice and soft. Helps dry neck-- aka Turkey Neck one of my grandkids called it, I can't get along without this product. I buy the biggest size, wish they had even bigger than this biggest size available. Some day?

For sensitive skin
I have been using Clinique's dramatically different moisturizing lotion for years! I have very sensitive skin so I'm very picky about my face cream. I've tried other lotions but always come back to this one. My mother, who has passed away, introduced me to this product. Now, every day, twice a day, I think of her as I apply the lotion. Add benefit!

Best Moisturizers on the Market
I've been using this moisturizer for years, ever since I was a teenage and now I'm in my mid-20's. Clinique has been a brand that I've trusted for years. This product delivers the right amount of moisture to the skin and throughout the day, your skin will not dry out. If you wear makeup, this is also a great moisturizer because it makes your skin look really healthy and dewy. Throughout the years, I've changed many products in my skin care routine, but this product is something I always seem to keep or return to. It's a great product. If you're skeptical, try out the travel size!
