Today's post is going to be a short, sweet one, but hopefully just as informative. Yesterday I was going through my Instagram news feed and stumbled upon this:
For those of you who might be wondering, Kiehl's is a very well-known apothecary, which means they are dedicated to the making and selling of beauty products, and when I say beauty, it is mainly skincare and haircare (for both men and women). Since they're having this weekend sale, I thought it would be a good idea to share with you guys my favorite Kiehl's skincare, so you have an idea of what products are really worth trying if you decide to take advantage of the 20% discount.
I first want to start off by saying that Kiehl's has an amazing skincare range! I mean uh-mazing! They use a lot of natural botanicals that really help soothe and brighten even the most sensitive of skins (like mine). To be honest, I was a little bit hesitant to try the brand because it was so natural. You're thinking "Huuuuh?" You see, basically the molecules that make up natural ingredients are much larger than those in chemical ingredients, therefore it is much harder for your skin to accept and break them down. Now it sounds like I'm making this up, but I promise I'm not; I've had looooong conversations with my dermatologist about this in the past. Even so, I decided to put my worries aside and try their products out. Best decision I ever made.
First off is their Ultra Facial Cream. It is the most amazing moisturizer I have ever tried. It's not too thick in consistency, but the moment you apply it, your skin instantly feels replenished and alive, plus it sinks in very quickly. I use this morning and night, and haven't used any other moisturizer since I found it.
Next comes my most recent purchase from Kiehl's: the Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado. Now this is the thickest cream I have ever used, but the most moisturizing. Your skin is its thinest under the eyes, and therefore where it is the most sensitive, so it is really important to maintain it moisturized. It is not a cream to help with dark circles or wrinkles, so don't expect to see a difference of that nature. Even so, I have noticed a difference in the texture of my under eye area. It feels a lot smoother and I find that my concealer is applying better since using this.
Finally, "My Precious", the Midnight Recovery Concentrate. This-, jus-, it-, I-, dskjvbdskhbf! I just don't have words to describe how amazing this has been for my skin. Every time I wake up and I look in the mirror I can't help but smile because my skin looks so glowing, replenished, and just freaking beautiful. It is a serum (oil) that you use before bed and it does exactly what I just said: repair & replenish for healthier and smoother skin. Lately I haven't even been wearing foundation because my skin feels so smooth and looks so good that it doesn't need it. If you just want to try one product from Kiehl's, I would start with this.
*Note: If you have oily skin and you don't want to put oils on your face for fear that they will make you more oily, don't be! Using the right kind of oils on your face actually helps. Basically, using the right kind of oils balances out the amount of oil your skin produces. Since your skin realizes that it is receiving them, it doesn't produce as much oils. I really hope I made sense there.
I really can't recommend Kiehl's enough. I think it's probably my favorite skincare brand. Since they are not the cheapest of brands, I encourage you guys to stop by a store near you this weekend and take advantage of the sale just to see if any of their products work as well for you as they have for me. Ohh! Before I forget, you have to show the flyer (above) at the counter so you can actually get the discount. For all of you in Puerto Rico, there is a Kiehl's in Plaza Las Américas, and a new one opened up in Condado (next to the Stop n' Go).
As always I hope this post was of some help to you guys, and let me know in the comments if you decide to try any of the products, or have any further questions. here is the link to the Kiehl's website if you want to know more about the brand or just want to take a look around.
Thanks for reading!
