KIEHL'S - Powerful-Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate

I do not know anything about Kiehl's except that their counter staff looks like hospital staff to me (because of their white coat). There is a Kiehl's boutique in Tampines Mall, near to where I live and yet I was never tempted to try their 'stuffs' because nothing seems appealing.

But I do know that their sunblock is every fashion/beauty editors's love and so when I'm looking to try new sunblock, I straightaway know where to go to.

I made my first visit to Kiehl's in Raffles City Robinson. I purchased the sunblock (which I'll review later as I've not started using it) and decided to check out their other stuffs too. Two products caught my eyes (will review the other one later).

Powerful-Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate

It's a serum with Vitamin C and it's as potent as Retinol without the sensitivity. I am a big fan of Vitamin C ingredients used in skin care products because that's exactly what my local beautician used (some solution with a lot of Vitamin C dosage) to treat my forehead problem (I used to have breakouts only in my forehead, and I mean WHOLE of forehead). Unfortunately she refused to sell me that magic solution anymore once the problem is solved because it's too strong she said. 

The word Vitamin C caught my attention and I went home with samples of the product. The texture of the serum is very creamy and rich but it is absorbed into your skin the minute you applied onto it! It gives a warm sensation (The girl already warned me on that) and I was very impressive with it's whitening and brightening effect! Honestly, I didn't see any reducing of laughing lines but I do see a glow in my face after using it. My skin looks so wonderful and even feel velvety after one packet of sample usage! I love this product and won't mind adding it to my routine skin care once my current ones are used up. Just use it after toner before moisturizer and you'll see a difference in your skin appearance after a week!
