Where nature meets science.
Being an avid supporter of socially responsible firms, Kiehl's is one that never disappoints. With their new release - Nightly Refining Micro-Peel Concentrate, 250 Bolivian farms and families can support themselves through this product launch.
I was given their thoughtfully curated media kit (thank you Wei Lin!) to test this peel concentrate that contains a super-ingredient, quinoa! With power packed nutrients, it helps to lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels, gluten free and is very high in protein!
Fun fact: It looks like cereal, but it is actually categorised under the class of beets. chard and spinach.
This product was birthed when Kiehl's chemist realised that after the quinoa seeds were rinsed. the plant's discarded outer husks began to bubble. What was once considered waste, was now a unique scientific discovery!
Why do you need this?
As we age, hydration in our skin diminishes which causes our skin to reflect light in a scattered fashion. This in turn leads to dull looking skin, more visible fine lines and uneven skin tone and coarser texture.
Many are aware of the above fact and some have spent plenty of money doing chemical peels. Despite its effectiveness, such peels may cause redness, irritation and scarring.
Therefore to combat these problems economically, the Kiehl's team developed the Nightly Refining Micro-Peel Concentrate which can be used daily! It is gentle on the skin and offers accelerated cell turnover, refined texture, improved skin tone evenness, and softer, more radiant skin.
My take!
I'm rather apprehensive when it comes to trying new products because my skin is very sensitive, but Kiehl's products has worked well for me. I just bought my second bottle of Midnight Recovery Concentrate, which complements well with this new product!
It may come off oily upon application but would be quickly absorbed. I've tried it for a week and have seen lots of positive reviews about how it has helped with acne and its scarring so it's definitely gonna be in my night routine for quite a while.
This bottle of miracle retails at 99 SGD and you can check out any Kiehl's counter to get a free sample before committing to a full bottle!
