It's easy to say that pretty much everything in my skin routine has pretty much changed in the last month, maybe even less. This is purely down to me getting a job at the Kiehl's counter in House of Fraser, a not so well known skin care brand from America, however never the less there stuff is incredible..and I promise this isn't me being totally bias, some of there stuff is totally fantastic.
I originally was given samples of their Ultra Facial Oil-Free collection, the original version of this collection is also available, and I have to say its incredibly popular, however due to me having oily skin I always opt for the Oil-Free version. The collection consists of a cleanser, toner and moisturiser, and I personally use all three of them in that order every morning and night, however sometimes I forget to moisturise. However, never the less my skin has been transformed, not totally transformed into immaculately clear skin, I do still get the odd breakout, but its nothing in comparison to how my skin used to be. Its much less oily, it looks much more radiant and is just overall much more healthy which is really brilliant. Now lets get down to the exact products I use, however beforehand I would just like to say I'm not going into a proper in depth review of each and every product, just the basic outline;
Ultra Facial Oil-Free Cleanser
This is a really fantastic cleanser, you only need the smallest amount. Its a really quick-lathering cleansing foam which thoroughly removes impurities and visibly reduces excess oil on the skin’s surface. Enriched with Imperata Cylindrica Root and Lemon Fruit Extracts the non-stripping, sulfate-free formula leaves skin clean and refreshed without over-drying, leaving skin looking more balanced. Helping to control shine for 24 hours reducing oil on the skin’s surface all day. Like most Kiehl's products its paraben-free, silicone-free, perfume-free and obviously oil-free!
This is an oil-free toner which is formulated to visibly reduce excess oil on skin's surface, while leaving it instantly fresh and healthy looking. Made with Imperata Cylindrica Root Extract and Antarcticine to soothe and hydrate skin, this non-drying alcohol-free formula gently removes any remaining residue, dirt and oil without stripping skin of vital moisture. Helping the overall PH-balance of the skin, and reducing shine on the skin by 80% immediately. Once again its paraben-free, silicone-free, perfume-free and obviously oil-free (can you see a trend emerging).
This oil-free lightweight, all day moisturising lotion helps visibly reduce excess oil on skin’s surface, leaving a shine-free and balanced appearance. This non-greasy hydrator traps moisture to deeply condition skin and restore its moisture balance. It contains Imperata Cylindrica Root Extract, Antarcticine and Vitamin E which helps keep skin looking fresh all day. Proven to visibly reduces oil on skin after 1 week, control shine on skin for 24 hours and reduces shine on skin by 82% immediately. This is also paraben-free, fragrance-free and oil-free!
Midnight Recovery Concentrate
The elixir works all night to replenish the skin with moisture and leave younger-looking skin by morning. This readily absorbed elixir helps the skin to recover radiance by morning, with skin feeling smoother and softer, which is the key reason I use it, not for the "younger-looking skin" theory. Enriched with Squalane, Evening Primrose Oil, Omega-6 Fatty Acids and Essential Oils including Lavender, this formula provides a boost of intensive moisture to dehydrated skin which instantly penetrates the skin surface to help replenish it with moisture. The concentrate is designed to work at night; with skin hydrated, supple and soft, rest assured you can say goodnight to a tired-looking complexion. This is really fantastic, you only need 2 or 3 drops to do you're entire face and trust me, your skin really does look a lot healthier and more radiant in the morning, this is really a god send.
Overall Kiehl's products are really amazing. In compression with other high end skin care brands their products are really fairly priced and really do work, and you only need a little of everything as it does go a really long way.
Have you tried any Kiehl's products, if so which are your favourites?
