Is this kit right for oily skin?

Yes. It is built for combination oily skin: a gel cleanser, an exfoliating toner and a lightweight gel moisturizer.

Is the moisturizer full size?

Yes. The Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel is full size; the soap and Clarifying Lotion 3 are smaller introductory sizes.

Is it fragrance-free?

Yes. Clinique lists the formulas as fragrance-free and oil-free, and the gel is non-acnegenic.

Can sensitive skin use Clarifying Lotion 3?

It contains alcohol and can sting. Sensitive or dry skin may do better with a gentler toner or Clinique's milder lotion.
