Kiehl's now open in Powerplant Mall

I have a few Kiehl's products but I haven't taken a serious look at the store before, not really. For instance did you know that they have hair products? They have shampoos, conditioners, volumizer, and even a hair oil very similar to Kerastase at less than half the prize. They also have specialized skincare lines with a heavy focus on natural ingredients like acai berry, amazonian clay, and sunflower oil to name a few.

Inspired by its city of origin, Kiehl's brings a piece of New York in all their stores here in the Philippines. Here's what their space in Rockwell looks like!

The place looks more like a bistro than a beauty store

Wall of Kiehl's best sellers. The #1 spot is nabbed by the Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution and #2 is Midnight Recovery Concentrate (this I will swear by, it's awesome).

The Kiehl's Acai line

Believe it or not, the prices are fairly reasonable for a high-end brand, also given the amount of product you get. Most facial washes, toners, and hair products are at the P1,000-P1,300 range - not cheap but not expensive in the realm of luxe skincare. Moisturizers in 50ml jars are pegged at P1,700. Serums are expensive at P3,000+ but in my experience, they take a veeeery long time to finish off.

I grabbed a few things, thanks to the play money that Kiehl's gave to all the guests.

Kiehl's Super Thick Volumizer. This is amazing - it helps thicken my very thin hair with only a few spritzes. Review soon!

I used the Kiehl's Rare Earth Deep Pore Cleanser a few times but I don't think this is for my skin. Hmm. I'll try it again and see!

Ahh, the best seller! I haven't tried the Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution yet since I'm still testing another serum, but this is next in line. I sorely need something to lighten my blemishes.

The Kiehl's Aromatic Blends in Orange Flower & Lychee is an interesting scent. I don't have anything quite like it!

And that's it! Do visit Kiehl's in Rockwell when you get the chance. :) Also, what's your absolute favorite product from Kiehl's? Am curious!
