Kiehl's Vital Skin-Strengthening Super Serum Review

This is so lovely! The pump bottle is easy to use and disperses a good amount of product for the face and neck.

It's really easily absorbed and leaves no residue. It's so light and although not a runny consistency it's not a heavy oily serum either.

This promises to protect against stressors (I shall have to douse myself before my next MIL visit!) and to correct signs of ageing. I've definitely noticed fine lines looking less, and my skin feeling more plump overall. It makes my skin incredibly soft after use and also it creates a lovely even feel for the next layer of my skin care routine.

I can even use this without following with a moisturiser it's very moisturising and by itself leaves a great base for applying foundation.

I think this is a really super serum, perfect for people who want a basic all-rounder, and also for people who are maybe trying the serum thing for the first time.

This serum is really effective. The fragrance is not for everyone though and to be fair I didn't love the smell immediately...rather it grew on me. Its very herbal with notes of citrus.

The feel of the serum is really light. Skin feels instantly hydrated due to the Hyaluronic Acid. This product absorbs fast and is non-greasy. Skin is balanced and imperfections are given a workout. Fine lines become minimized and blurred, skin is plumper without too much effort. After sticking to the routine and applying both am and pm, a radical change in skin texture is achieved. My skin is more even in tone and over all pretty radiant. Great result.

Love the packaging. A pump is always easy to distribute and great for travel too!

Freekin love this serum, its so so nice on the skin. Easily absorbed into the skin and just leaves it feeling so incredibly delightful. I found my skin is definitely more glowy since using this and I'm rocking my natural skin more and more.

The packaging is gorgeous and I love a serum with a pump top, makes life soooooo much easier. Overall beautiful product and will purchase again and again.....and again xx

This serum feels so soothing on application. It smells like it’s medicated but it’s natural. This product has made my skin so much more hydrated, sort to the touch and super smooth. I no longer have any dry patches around my nose and eye brows which is a huge plus. I love the fact it contains hyaluronic acid as that is a key component for great skin. I am 100 percent satisfied with this serum and will need to get more as soon as I run out.

Thank you for giving me the chance to try this product, im really enjoying it and i think im seeing results. Love the small but not too small packaging, i find most serums are in tiny little jars and hard to get out but this is a generous size and a good pump and you only need the one pump for your face and neck, it has a slight scent maybe a little chemical but its nothing too strong. Its a nice light texture and a little runny so goes on nice and even and i find absorbs super quick. I leave for a minute or two and then apply the moisturiser. I Think after the first couple of days i noticed a few of my finer lines have smoothed out or disappeared and im liking this product as it leaves your face feeling so nice and soft and used in conjunction with the toner and moisturiser its really nice. A great combo.

I received a sample from Farmers, I wanted to try it before spending $100 plus for a small bottle. The formula is not too runny, not too thick, creamy colour but applies clear. The smell is quite herby but soon dissipated. My skin felt a little tighter and hydrated, non irritating formula which was good for my skin. Haven't noticed a huge difference in lines and wrinkles, but over time with extended use this may help smooth out my skin. Do not get near eyes, contains Hyaluronic acid and several herbs, hence the earthy perfume. Not sure if I will repurchase, due to the price point.

This skin strengthening serum is just what my skin needs! It protects against stressors including sun exposure, pollution, stress, lack of sleep, diet, and temperature. This serum also visibly reduces fine lines and helps to give glowing, healthy-looking skin. Basically, everything that I need in one little bottle. It is safe to say that I was very excited to use this serum to help address all of the skin concerns that I have and I am happy to say that I was not disappointed.

Firstly, I love the packaging! The red on the bottle looks lovely and the pump top makes it super easy to use and ensures that you get the right amount of product each time.

I used this serum along with Kiehl's calendula herbal extract toner and the Kiehls ultra facial cream so the results in part could be thanks to all three of these amazing products.

The serum is very easy to apply. Just one pump, onto my hands and then applied to my face. it is very light and absorbs in quickly. It smells divine and leaves a very soft feeling on my skin.

My skin has really improved using this serum along with the other Kiehl's products but it would also work wonders under other skincare brands. I have had a testing couple of weeks and normally my skin would really have suffered. While using these products it has actually improved!

I would recommend this serum to anyone who is concerned about aging skin and is looking for a serum to improve the overall radiance of their skin.

Since I have been using this serum I have noticed a big difference in my skins elasticity and texture. I use two good pumps and this is sufficient for full coverage of my face. It has a light texture and a lovely lingering fragrance, absorbing well as I gently pat it in. My face is feeling supple and wonderfully soft after twice daily applications, and the pump system is quick and efficient. Especially pleased to see that it contains the highly recommended Hyaluronic Acid which everyone is looking for these days. This serum has really given my skin a much needed boost and I feel that in the few weeks that I have been using this it has got a lovely glow and certainly much more supple.

This product is a game changer. I have always loved serums, and often found myself gravitating to some extremely expensive ones. This one did not disappoint. I found myself using this at night mainly, under moisturiser. In the winter time (or on days where I havent been drinking enough water) I think it would be good under moisturiser for during the day too, it's just a bit too strong at the moment for both given it is summer. I found at first this didn't feel like a very moisturising serum, but after a moment and letting it sink in, i was surprised to find my skin feeling so soft and hydrated. I also found my skin to appear a bit brighter when I was using this constantly.

I was excited to try this product as I've heard a lot about hyaluronic acid and its benefits lately. I also have quiet tired and stressed skin, so thought this would offer a good boost! It didn't disappoint. The serum is quite liquid-y and you don't need much to get good coverage of your skin. It glides on and immediately gave my skin a tightening and smoothing feeling. I used the product after my oil cleanse and then the Kiehls calendula toner at night time which seemed to provide a really good clean base. I then used it after cleansing in the morning. I noticed a reduction in some of my enlarged pores and also a much more bright appearance in my skin over the fortnight I used the serum. The only downside for me was the smell - I didn't find it off-putting, but I wouldn't say it was the best thing I've ever smelled either. That's only a very minor critique however. I liked the packaging and the pump bottle - it made for no mess, no fuss application. Will certainly continue to use as I can see benefits and results after only a pretty short time.
