Kiehl's newest miracle product

I have been using Kiehls products for years now. Lately not so much because I've been distracted by the million of products on the market. The Calendula toner and Pineapple papaya scrub has been a longtime favorite. Their new Midnight Recovery Concentrate has been getting rave reviews... supposedly a miracle product with instant results. I had to see what all the hype was about....




Tried it last night and my skin DID feel amazing! Got a generous sample from Kiehls (Its suppose to last 1 week) You use 3-4 drops and pat onto clean skin at night time. You can layer with a  moisturizer on top if your skin is very dry.  You will notice and feel a difference in your skin right away! My skin has been acting a little crazy lately and the thought of using an oil on my face is a bit scary. However this absorbed into my skin right away and my face felt lifted, smooth and supple in the morning. The mixture of essential oils smell heavenly. Only been using for 2 days so can't give you any long term results. Keep in mind this product is targeted primarily at replenishing moisture and giving you a glow. Don't expect it to make your wrinkles disappear or get rid of discoloration. However dry skin is a fast track to wrinkle city. The lost of moisture and collagen in skin is what contributes to lines. Replenishing the skin at night time is crucial at any age.
Seems like an overall great eye cream to add moisture and replenish the eye area after a long day. Can't say I feel a dramatic difference but I would definitely continue using for a few more weeks just to see if I notice a change in the skin texture


 Go to a Kiehl's store and get a sample! I'm pretty sure you will love it as much as I did ;)

Loafer flat

Christian Louboutin- $995

Philip Lim- $325


Alexander Wang- $495


Repetto-$315

Zara- $69



Barneys Bernice Flat- $375

I've been looking for a great flat that is NOT a ballerina or scrunchy back style. Seems like the new look for the season is a Loafer flat. Somewhere between a slipper and moccasin, they are super comfy and chic enough to wear with any outfit. This silhouette packs much more substance than the average flat which often leaves very little support or cushion. My fav is the Louboutins and Alexander Wang patent with tassel!
