Kiehl's Skin Rescuer review

If you are ever looking for a product which fixes your skin after 2 uses (fix=rescue from dryness, redness, itchiness, etc) then this is my highly recommended product! I always end up using this product (every single winter) after failed attempts with other products. It has not failed me so far.

I have been using this product for 2+ years already, and it has saved my skin in two countries, Japan and Canada.

(The bolded tests are the key ingredients that differentiated this product from others)

1. Mannose is a sugar sourced from wood pump or Birch and Maple trees which help fortify and protect skin making it less susceptible to daily stress
2. Rosa Gallica Botanical Extract helps minimize skin's visible response to stress
3. Chamomile soothes and comforts the skin

impressions:

• definitely on the pricier side, but it is worth it
• no artificial scents
• very thick (my ever first break-in to product consists 47-50 pumps before I see product)
• two-three pumps is all it takes to cover the whole face
• works well with sensitive skin (no irritations so far)
• lightweight, in a sense your skin absorbs every bit of the product so you don't feel it
• it works well alone (no need for additional products, e.g. serums, oils, moisturizers, toners, etc)
• you don't have to use it every day
• results are long lasting
• does not irritate eyes

Verdict:

As stated, this is my all-time favourite product, It does such a good job, you can apply it with or without other products so it is a great product to travel with. It is a thick cream but at the same time, lightweight since your skin will absorb all the product, there is also no weird or overwhelming scent. 

score: 9.9/10
