KIEHL’S FACE SERUM REVIEW
Does your complexion seem to be dull and lifeless? You can reach for this conditioning nighttime concentrate by Kiehl’s. This face serum works for dull and nutrient-deprived skin that seeks regeneration. It is worth realizing though that this is not an advanced serum. Neither is it recommended for dealing with serious skin problems. What it is good at is just providing skin with regular nighttime care. What should you know about Kiehl’s face serum? Here is the review.
Size: 15/30/50 ml
Ingredients and the feel:
The very first thing that catches our attention is the information that Kiehl’s face serum is made up of 99,8% substances of natural origin. Undoubtedly, this is a huge positive, however, does our skin really need all these substances? Two of them that the formula is based on are: irritation soothing lavender oil (essential oil) and olive-oil-derived squalane that our skin needs to keep adequate moisture levels. The larger part of the composition is taken up by 10 natural oils the majority of which are essential oils that may cause skin irritation, if used too often.
It is also worth realizing that Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery face serum is more of a face oil, which is also thicker than other similar products. As a consequence, it will not be tolerated well by all skin types, e.g. oily skin.
Key benefits and directions for use:
Application of Kiehl’s face serum is far from being troublesome. In general, it requires taking only two easy-to-follow two steps. First, you have to cleanse skin thoroughly and then put on 2-3 drops of the serum to spread them gently over cheeks, forehead and chin. The producer points out that this skin care product is effective when used alone, which means that there is no need to apply any face cream, yet it should be realized that then the serum effectiveness may be reduced.
When used daily and accordingly to the instructions, Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery face serum improves skin resilience and refines skin’s texture. In addition, the producer promises that the effects become visible after approximately 8 weeks, but the first use already gives you more radiant skin. The users however claim that the very effects need more time to become obvious, especially in the case of dehydrated and nutrient-deprived skin. On the other hand, it cannot be denied that Kiehl’s serum leaves skin looking fresh and can be considered to be a quality addition to a daily skin routine. Still, it is recommended to be used with other skin care products that are launched by Kiehl’s brand.
