- The 10 Best-Selling Products from Kiehl’s
Kiehl’s is one of our go-to skin-care brands because it offers us everything we could possibly need: heavy duty moisturizers for dry winter skin, brightening face masks for when our skin needs a pick-me-up and tinted lip oil for a touch of color and hydration. If you’re entirely new to Kiehl’s, let’s start with some quick background info: Kiehl’s was founded in 1851 in New York City, specifically at the corner of 13th Street and Third Avenue. Some of the classics we still know and love were first introduced in 1962 (i.e., Ultra Facial Moisturizer, Blue Astringent Lotion and Calendula Herbal-Extract Toner). Today, Kiehl’s remains one of the most trusted skin-care brands — featuring products made popular from the very beginning and some new, science-backed formulas we can’t live without.
Click through to see the top ten best sellers from Kiehl’s — it’s about time you add at least one of them to your skin-care collection.
#10: The Plumping Moisturizer
Hydro-Plumping Re-Texturizing Serum Concentrate
For intense hydration, apply this serum in the morning and evening before your moisturizer. It’s ideal for all skin types and has been clinically tested (based on instrumental test within surface layers) to plump skin, smoothing the appearance of fine lines and texture.
#9: The Pore Cleansing Mask
Rare Earth Deep Pore Cleansing Mask
Work to minimize the appearance of your pores with the help of this clay mask. The formula helps to draw out any debris or dead skin cells that might cause clogged pores. This mask is ideal for oily skin, though it will also help detoxify normal skin, too.
#8: The Addictive Body Lotion
This hydrating lotion with beta-carotene, cocoa butter and squalane will leave your skin feeling softer than ever before. Use it after showering (or whenever you want, really) and let it fully absorb. Buy it in a jumbo version and you won’t regret it.
#7: The Classic Toner
Calendula Herbal Extract Alcohol-Free Toner
Toners have a variety of different benefits, but generally, they help to cleanse and refresh your skin. This soothing, alcohol-free formula is ideal for normal, oily and sensitive skin.
#6: The Multipurpose Face Cream for Aging Skin
This face cream specifically targets signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles thanks to superhero ingredients in the formula like Jasmonic Acid and Beech Tree Extract. If these concerns don’t apply to you, we recommend going with Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream.
#5: The Line-Reducing Serum
Powerful-Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate
Packed with 12.5% Vitamin C and hyaluronic acid, this serum is great for targeting fine lines, dull skin and large pores. If you’re looking to add a Vitamin C serum into your routine, this one is great for all skin types and ages.
#4: The Nighttime Facial Oil
This is the perfect example of a skin-care product you will look forward to using every single day. Its formula contains evening primrose oil, lavender essential oil, and squalane, and has the most delightful smelling oil you’ve ever encountered. Apply 2-3 drops to dry skin after cleansing or wear under moisturizer.
#3: The Dark Spot Diminisher
Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution
Dark spots are a result of sun exposure or aging, and this corrector formula aims to reduce their appearance with the help of Activated C (a Vitamin C derivative), white birch extract (for hydration and evening out skin tone) and peony extract (to enhance skin clarity). Use it every day if you want your skin to look brighter, more radiant, and most importantly, to diminish those dark spots over time.
#2: The Moisturizing Under Eye Cream
Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado
It’s never too early or too late to start using an under-eye cream. In the same way that avocado is a great addition to our diet, it’s also a great source of moisture, amino acids and vitamins for your skin.
#1: The Classic, Beloved Face Cream
For a no-fuss, do-it-all lightweight cream perfect for using every morning and night, you can’t go wrong with this best-selling formula. It’s ideal for all skin types and it even works as a hydrating makeup primer for powder and liquid foundations.
