I do find I have sensitive skin, I'm lucky when I find something that doesn't make me flare up or itch my skin so trying new skin products out regularly is a no no for me!
But on a trip to Kiehl's a while back me and my husband were browsing the shelves and I spotted this cream. The idea behind this is that it combats the visible signs of stress and premature ageing that stress can cause on your skin.
Kiehl's suggest that this moisturiser can help with a dull complexion, fatigued skin and uneven skin tone. It can do this with Botanical extracts it uses to minimise the skins visible response to stress and also while that's happening it protects and over time strengthens the skin's barrier. It also contains Shea butter to help hydrate the skin...
Sold!!!
So after using it for some time now, only usually when I have stressed, freaking out skin I do like it. I wouldn't say it will ever replace my Elemis Pro collagen but it certainly helps my skin when it's having off days.
However, despite there being shea butter in it, it's not intense enough for my skin. It's lightweight. non-greasy and sinks into my skin super quick but just doesn't give me lasting hydration.
I'm now using it at the same stage as I would my evening serum. Once my skin in cleansed & toned in use one pump of this on my skin before applying my evening moisturiser (Elemis Pro Collagen Night cream). The next morning my skin does definitly look brighter and it calms down any redness I get. It's helping keep flare up's at bay and keeping my skin calm.
Like all Kiehl's products the packaging is simple and practical. For a 75ml it's £29.50 so it's really good value for money. Both me and my husband use this and were only half way down it and we must of had it around 6 months!
Thanks for reading
