The Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream is an amazing and well balanced facial moisturizer.
My skin can be a bit of a mixed bag. I am in my late 30's so it is showing signs of aging while having oily patches, breakouts, and sometimes dry patches. Normally I use a light day cream and a heavier night cream so I wasn't too sure how the switch to a facial cream that was to be used day and night would go. Would it be heavy enough for the night but light enough for day use so I don't look super oily? Impossible right?! This Kiehl's cream somehow ticks both of these boxes.
I applied a small quantity of this face cream day and night over the Kiehl's Calendula toner and Kiehl's Skin Strengthening Serum. A little really does go a long way. It spreads well and absorbs quickly leaving soft and hydrated feeling skin.
The packaging is simple, a screw-top lid and it doesn't really have a smell. This is the perfect face cream to layer with different serums depending on your skin needs.
I recommend this facial cream to anyone who is after a good all-round moisturizer to hydrate and balance their skin.
Where has this product been all my life?! I have been using this cream day and night during the trial period and I think I've found the one! It does everything it claims, keeping the skin hydrated all day long whilst being super light weight - it's hard to find a product that does both of these things well. I tend to get oily skin and I found that because this product absorbs so nicely, it doesn't add to the shine problem. Now I'm not sure if it's my imagination so I'm interested to read the other reviews, but it seems to have a cooling effect on my skin. Almost like popping a bit of cold water on my face, a sensation that has been so welcome in this hot weather. It comes in a plastic tub which suits me because I can easily get every last bit of product out. The eco-warrior in me hopes to one day see this product in a glass jar.
