This Kiehl's Product Is The Best Remedy For Dull, Tired Skin

CREATED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH KIEHL’S SINCE 1851

Why It's Iconic:

Dubbed ‘midnight magic’, this silky oil has gained a loyal following since its launch in 2010. The winner of countless beauty awards, it’s estimated that one is now sold every minute, globally. Brimming with potent botanicals – from evening primrose oil to lavender and olive-derived squalane – it’s incredibly nourishing, while its non-greasy formula makes it suitable for all skin types. Just a few drops will lock in plenty of moisture overnight – a time when we typically lose water in our skin – so that, come morning, your complexion looks bright and hydrated. 

What It Does:

Unlike other oils on the market, Midnight Recovery does so much more than simply hydrate the skin. With a recent Kiehl’s survey showing 80% of us have reported poor sleep over the past year, it’s no wonder the effects are showing up in our face.1 The good news? Midnight Recovery is proven to correct the appearance of damage caused by disturbed sleep. Not only does it seal in moisture, it also protects the skin’s vital barrier and boosts elasticity, minimising the appearance of fine lines and uneven texture. Even better, the evening remains the best time to use it – when skin is sheltered from daily aggressors and is most receptive to the reparative process.

Who It's For:

Suitable for all skin types, anyone can use this oil. It is, however, geared towards those wanting to revitalise and rejuvenate their complexion, as well as diminish the signs of ageing. Therefore, those in their mid 20s and up are most likely to see the best results. It’s also a must-try for those with dry skin, as it immediately quenches parched, flaky patches, while the rich emollient ingredients deliver impressive nourishment, too. The mild, soft scent isn’t too strong either, so sensitive skin types can use it with confidence.
