Review: Kiehl's Ultra Facial Oil-Free Gel Cream

After reading about Kielh's Oil-Free range from mywomenstuff, I went to Kiehl's store with a friend to pick up the Oil-free Gel Cream moisturizer. I always love gel type moisturizer as it is not oily, but it may not be hydrating enough sometimes. So, this gel cream maybe a good try since it promises OIL-FREE!

This moisturizer comes in a nice packaging (I love blue colour ). However, there is no protection under the cap. The moisturizer is watery and when I open it, some gel cream actually fell out. I wish it comes with an extra safety cover underneath the cap as we might travel around with it.

I have been using it for about 2 weeks. For the first 2 days, I felt slightly dehydrated at my lower cheek. After that I felt hydrated again! What I like the most is the Oil-Free feeling! My face is moisturized the whole day without feeling oily. It is so light! But, it is sticky on my face before it fully absorbs.

At night or in the morning when I wash my face, it feels like there is a layer of lotion of my face. Once I use cleanser, it goes away. So far, it does not bug me. It also has a light scent. I do not know how to describe it. It does not smell good or bad. I just ignore it .

When I purchase this product at Gurney, I was given some Kiehl's samples. Oh, Kiehl's is so generous. Too bad they did not have Midnight Recovery Concentrate sample. I would love to try that before buying (cos it is not cheap ).

Well, I can say I do not have much complain about this product. But I do hope that Kiehl's can come up with a better packaging with a 'safety' cover.

So have you tried this yet and how do you think?

Good luck!

Love,
Stephy
