In 1968, a savvy beauty editor asked a leading dermatologist “Can great skin be created?" Clinique was born. Clinique's mission has always been to provide the safest, most effective formulas in simple routines that bring remarkable results. No parabens. No phthalates. Just #HappySkin. As the first-ever dermatologist-developed brand, their commitment to safety starts with science. From there, they evaluate their products at different stages of development to ensure they meet the highest standards of safety and efficacy.
