After reading a lot of positive things about Kiehl's earlier on this year I decided to pay my local store a visit. The staff in in store (and online) are really helpful they really do know their stuff!! When you go in the do offer to give you a consultation to find out what your skin type is (mine is very dry) I don't feel it was really necessary for me as I knew I had dry skin but I let the lady go ahead and give me consultation anyway. This confirmed what I already knew....I had dry skin. Although it did give me a good first impression as clearly the guys at Kiehl's knew a lot about skin!
I sat down with the consultant and spoke about my skin issues and she recommended the ultra range for me. I initially just got the ultra facial cream as I did just want to try it before making anymore purchases. After a few days my skin improved massively! It was no longer felt tight dry and flaky and I could finally wear foundation again! YAY!!! After a few months I did go back and purchase the ultra toner and cleanser and they do all work really well together and leave my skin feeling baby soft.
This year as winter approached my skin again was very dry and flaky and I slowly gave up on my trusty Kiehl's cream. After around a month of just using cocoa butter I was having major breakouts that just kept coming back with a vengeance. If finally gave in and went online and spoke to a very helpful lady on the Kiehl's chat. I told her my concerns and asked if she could recommend a product for me. She did suggest that my breakouts could be a result of my skin being so dry that excess sebum being produced was causing my quite nasty spots and well she could not have been more right! She suggested I try hydro-plumping re-texturizing serum concentrate so I read through all the reviews and well I didn't see any negative comments and with 20% off in the Black Friday deals I decided to give it a go. I do not regret my purchase AT ALL. It has truly been amazing!!!! After only a few days use my breakouts have stopped and my skin feels so soft and just more healthy. I got a little pot of ultra facial cream as a free sample too and when that runs out I will purchase more!
I do highly rate all Kiehl's products I have tried. It's the only skin care brand I have gone back to! If you have never heard of them I suggest to go research now! Or pop into your local store for advice. You really won't regret it!
