      My Clinique experience has been unacceptable. I received an order on 1/22 containing the cleanser that I ordered, but it was in long-discontinued packaging, which was a red flag. I looked up the batch code on the bottom of the bottle, and this cleanser was manufactured in January 2020. Absurd that it was shipped. Why Clinique even still has cleanser in the old packaging is a mystery. I called the same day, and a replacement was processed. Two weeks later, I still have yet to receive any confirmation. I called again on Thursday, 2/1, and I was assured that the replacement has been processed, but still nothing. In the meantime, I re-ordered the cleanser on my own, and it came in less than three days. It's ridiculous that I haven't received the original replacement after two weeks, and nope, no refunds because it has been processed.
