where to buy clinique please help

[sam portadown]

on past trips i have went to florida mall to stock up on my clinique stuff but on the next trip i do not plan to go to florida mall. is there any where at the premium malls that stock it? ( and how good is the selection )
We do not have a car but know we will be at the premium outlet malls on each end of international drive

Or Should i just wait and get in duty free on my way home
(Also is there a limit in duty free of how much i can buy). Thanks

I always stock up on Clinque at the Florida Mall and I can't remember ever seeing it at any of the outlets..
I always buy it at the Florida Mall because of all the freebies they give you
The prices at MCO duty free are really good so I think that's gonna be where you end up buying it.
Go on nip to the Florida Mall and get your freebies you know you want to
Not sure what the duty free limit is but I have always spent a good $400 on the stuff and have never been stopped.

thanks for your help, Florida Mall is not worth going to just for my clinique
Most likely it will have to be the duty free

Mall at Millennia is nearer to I Drive and has Bloomingdales and Macy's where you can buy Clinique

I've picked up make-up before at The Cosmetics Company Store at Premium Outlets on Vineland - now bear in mind that this store stocks some discontinued items etc but they also have current stock too but they just may not have the range that a Clinique counter would have.

I'm a MAC/Bare Essentials chick but my approach to purchasing make-up in the States can work for Clinique too. I usually wait until the week before I leave and then I check out the US sites and the UK sites for prices with exchange rate. Then when I get to Gatwick or Heathrow if it works out cheaper there than the US prices I have then I buy at duty free, otherwise I just wait until I get to the US and then buy in store when I'm out there. It really depends on the current exchange rate as to whether I buy in the States or at the UK airport.

Hope that helps

Can I jump in & ask where at FM you buy your Clinque, we will definately be going as DS is into Holister & Aeropostal. I usually get mine at home when a bonus time is on. Is it much cheaper in US?

It usually depends on the exchange rate if it's cheaper but when I used to wear a lot of Clinique I found it to be but this was about 6 years ago. I found Dillards to be the best for Clinique but Macy's sell it as well.

It actually does work out a lot cheaper then the UK. I only wear Clinque and basically I go into which ever one or ones are doing the best bonus time. (spread your buy between them) Even if there is not a bonus time on if you go to Saks in the Florida Mall the ladies on the Clinque counter are so good and so friendly and give you a load of freebies anyway, they alway look after you. On the other hand the Ladies in Nordstrom have always been very aloof and unless its bonus time you get what you paid for only. I normally save a good £100 or more on the items I buy..
