So, I've been using Nivea & Simple skin care for the past year, however, as with Nivea's products they do nothing for my skin, so I ended up focusing on Simple.
For reference, I'm a combination skin type, with a dry t-zone and normal cheeks

I mainly started off by using the facial wash, then the soothing toner and another brand moisturizer. The toner was already one thing..I learnt I have to use a balancing toner rather than a soothing one but I just couldn't find that in here. Well, overall it did no wonders to my skin, I followed the routine twice daily and my skin wasn't as it should have after all the work.
So in order for my skin to completly clear up I've changed the routine.

And so I switched to Clinique.
I hadn't read the reviews on makeup alley before and well, after the purchase I did and overall, clinique has really negative ratings. I trusted clinique though, as all the clinique reps have fine skin , silly I know.. and I did hear good stuff about their prods.
Well, is been two days since I've used the prods twice daily and my skin has already got so smooth!

I got the liquid facial soap and the clarifying lotion in 2, and I received a GWP of the Dramatically different moisturizer and a 'continuous rescue antioxidant moisturizer'
The clarifying lotion was such a pain the first time I tried that, it felt like my face was actually burning and then the sensation was replaced by the freshness of menthol. On the second time however the stinging dramatically decreased and the menthol freshness remained.. and its incredible how much dirt it can remove lol! Well, so far so good, I'll keep you updated!
