Kiehl's Ultra Facial Oil-Free Skin Care Review

 Oily Skin, T-Zone oily, huge pores, dry skin savior's! Kiehl's Ultra Facial Oil-Free Skin Care series is my currently favorite, this skincare series with new oil-free formulas! No PARABENS, No FRAGRANCE, No COLORANTS! Click HERE, if you not yet read my previous blog post about Kiehl's Fun Under The Sun Event with The Butterfly Project! 



# Kiehl's Ultra Facial Oil Free Cleanser  
 Our Ultra Facial Oil-Free Cleanser is a quick-lathering cleansing foam that thoroughly removes impurities and visibly reduces excess oil on skin’s surface, while leaving skin looking more balanced. With Imperata Cylindrica Root and Lemon Fruit Extracts, our non-stripping, sulfate-free formula leaves skin clean and refreshed without over-drying.  Gentle enough for sensitive skin. Oil-free, paraben-free, fragrance-free, colorant-free.

# Ingredients 
Imperata Cylindrica (Desert Plant Extract)
The Imperata Cylindrica plant thrives in dry, excessively saline environments and is native to many of Earth’s deserts, but is especially prolific in the Australian Outback. Imperata Cylindrica’s roots contain high concentrations of potassium which provides an immediate and lasting hydrating effect. In our formulation, Imperata Cylindrica helps skin to store and retain moisture efficiently – even in the driest weather conditions. It is believed that indigenous Australians of centuries past used the desert plant as a substitute for salt, due to its high saline content.

Lemon Extract
This bright and zesty citrus fruit has long had a prominent role in cosmetics and aromatherapy. Lemons are high in natural fruit acids and have the highest percentage of Vitamin C of all the fruits. Its extracts from the fruit and essential oil (expressed from the peel) have astringent and antiseptic quality that freshens, stimulates and rejuvenates sluggish skin and adds lusterous shine to the hair. In aromatherapy, lemons inspire a cooling, refreshing and uplifting feeling.

 Ultra Facial Oil-Free Cleanser Texture 
The texture is very mild, creamy, opalescent and smooth cleanser, but it kinda make my oily skin become dry, I feel likes something is tightening up my skin, is let me feel uncomfortable. Btw here the Before & After I used KIEHL'S Ultra Facial Oil-Free Cleanser Moisture Test 


 Even though my skin is feel tightening, but I wonder why my skin moisture is go up to 59.5%! This is really surprised me :)

# Kiehl's Ultra Facial Oil-Free Toner 
Our Ultra Facial Oil-Free Toner is formulated to visibly reduce excess oil on skin’s surface, while leaving it instantly fresh and healthy looking.  Made with Imperata Cylindrica Root Extract and Antarcticine to soothe and hydrate skin, our non-drying alcohol-free formula gently removes any remaining residue, dirt and oil without stripping skin of vital moisture. PH-balanced, and tested for safety and gentleness. Oil-free, paraben-free, fragrance-free, colorant-free.

# Ingredients 
Antarcticine (Glacial Glycoprotein Extract)
Antarcticine, sourced from Antarctica, is a glycoprotein* that has demonstrated many unique benefits when used in skincare formulas. With superb protection against dryness, Antarcticine helps hydrate skin and provides it with a noticeably smoother appearance while shielding skin from the damaging effects of free-radicals. It further helps to protect skin from extremely cold temperatures, facilitating skin’s retention of natural water reserves. The organic substance thrives in the most extreme environmental conditions as a result of the cryoprotective (protection against freezing) properties of the molecule. A glycoprotein is a macromolecule composed of a protein and a carbohydrate (an oligosaccharide).

Imperata Cylindrica (Desert Plant Extract)
The Imperata Cylindrica plant thrives in dry, excessively saline environments and is native to many of Earth’s deserts, but is especially prolific in the Australian Outback. Imperata Cylindrica’s roots contain high concentrations of potassium which provides an immediate and lasting hydrating effect.

 This Gel cream i can say is perfect for any combination to oily skin as it absorbs super fast before leaving your skin soft, subtle and of course oil-free. Kiehl's Ultra Facial Oil-Free Gel Cream gentle yet effective formula, I didn't feel any itchy, no annoyance from smelling fragrance products on my face, and the most important no tight feeling. It also can be your makeup base! Apply a bit before you makeup, it doubles as Moisturizer & Primer! 
I like the cooling feel after I applied, also it can be as your night cream, just apply thick layers before you sleep. After a day you wake up, your skin will become watery bouncy radiant skin! I can say this Gel Cream is the best moisturizer I ever use! Truly non-comedogenic, oil-free, and silicone-free! :D 

Before & After 


This is the most hydrating moisturizer! My skin moisture level is up to 62.0%! Is very watery bouncy and soft like baby skin! Overall, i really quite obsessed with the latest series of Kiehl's skincare product, is specially for Oily skin! And I found out is actually suitable for Acne Skin! So maybe who have same skin types with me, you should probably go to the nearest Kiehl's Shop to get samples to try it out! I bet won't let you down :)
