• Lastly, Apricot kernel oil is rich in essential fatty acids and vitamins A and E. It nourishes, moisturizes, and protects your skin barrier- making it super soft and supple.

Benefits

• Gentle on the skin.
• Effectively remove oil, dirt, clogged pores, and impurities without drying your skin.
• It is suitable for all types of skin, especially sensitive skin.
• Improves overall skin texture.
• Also, it hydrates your skin and makes it supple.

My Experience

I started using Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cleanser a few weeks ago and am impressed with the results. The cleanser has removed impurities and unclogged my pores-making my skin hydrated. My skin felt soft and smooth after each use, and I noticed a slight improvement in the skin's overall texture.

I love how gentle yet effective the formula was. I have combination skin prone to dryness and breakouts, and I often struggle to find cleansers that address both concerns without being too harsh. Overall, the Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cleanser struck the perfect balance, leaving my skin feeling clean and refreshed without stripping it of moisture.

Skin SOS: Reverse the damage with the NEW Kiehls “Ultra Facial Advanced Repair Barrier Cream”

If you are looking into purchasing this product, you may be experiencing some uncomfortable “skinsations”. Not to worry, we have all the answers to your questions here.

First of all, let's start by identifying what the signs of a damaged skin barrier can be. Each skin is unique, so each reaction can be different. Keeping this in mind, the most known are as follows:

• Dry or scaly skin
• Itchiness
• Skin infections
• Rough visible patches
• Lastly, sensitive zones

The Advanced Repair Barrier Cream

This cream was designed for dry skin, including sensitive skin. Its rich, soothing texture brings instant relief to uncomfortable, red skin. The cream contains unique Advanced Barrier Technology that mimics the skin's lipid structure. This allows your skin to fill its moisture levels. Inside you will find a duo of Colloidal Oatmeal & Beta-Glucan that provides instant repair and relief up to 10 surface skin layers deep. Moreover, Kiehls Ultra Facial Advanced Repair Barrier Cream is quickly absorbed and leaves a breathable layer on the surface. As you apply the cream, its texture transforms from a balm to a cream.

What's Inside?

• Beta-Glucan: This skin-repairing molecule helps transform dry, sensitized skin into its healthiest version. Also, this active accelerates skin recovery for a smoother finish.
• Colloidal Oatmeal: This rich anti-inflammatory relieves sensitive skin as well as repairs the skin barrier. It instantly helps reduce pain and discomfort.

My Review

Kiehl's products have a massive place in my heart, so trying out their newest addition was great! I tried the cream on my daughter's skin as she suffers from dry skin and eczema in certain zones. Kiehls Ultra Facial Advanced Repair Barrier Cream worked wonders in just a few days. Her red cheeks were quickly soothed and became much softer. The cream has a gentle scent to it that didn't bother me. Overall, this cream is ideal for multitasking and can also be used around dry lips, on windburn, and around the eyes.

Dry skin can be seriously painful and even hold many people back from a normal lifestyle. Kiehl's new skin barrier repairing cream is the perfect remedy.

Also, I recently tried the new Rare Earth Deep Pore-Minimizing & Polishing Powder (review here). It works nicely for a little extra care (I love using it on my arms, hands, as well as legs and feet).

Go beyond hydration

Does your skin need an instant burst of hydration? Do you struggle to find a product that is non-greasy but deeply hydrating? If so, then keep reading.

The Ultra Facial Cream

Combining both science and nature, Kiehls created the ultimate day cream. The ultra-light formula is the #1 selling face cream. Suitable for all skin types, including the most sensitive ones.

The ultra-facial cream contains 4.5% Squalane and Glacial Glycoprotein. Working harmoniously, the actives boost the skin's moisture barrier for softer as well as smoother skin.

What's Inside?

The cream uses two main actives to achieve its great hydrating action:

• Squalane: This highly-refined botanical lipid is derived from sugar cane. Squalane is found in many products but in a lower percentage. Squalane helps to replenish the natural barrier, preventing your skin from dryness or irritations.
• Glacial Glycoprotein: Originally sourced from Antarctic Sea glaciers, this profoundly hydrating active is retrieved in an environmentally friendly manner. Kiehl's are very conscious of the value of this active and work without causing further extraction of the glaciers. The glacial glycoproteins are the key to this product's success. Unseen before, they help infuse your skin with hydration throughout the day.

My Review

I have a normal skin type and was looking for a deeply hydrating cream to make my skin feel comfortable and supple. Kiehl's has always been at the top of my skincare products to try. So today, I decided to make that dream a reality. The ultra-facial cream is magical, from the quickly absorbing texture to its gentle, fragrance-free scent. Also, everything about it invites you back to use it time and time again.

I recommend this to all skin types wanting a simple yet highly effective moisturizing cream. It also works great on dry skin patches; you can apply it to arid zones on the body and share it with your male friends.

Have you finished your pot? Please don't throw it away. Kiehl's best-seller is refillable and can be purchased in a 150ml bag. Thus, a great way to reduce our plastic consumption. Go, Kiehl's!
