This month, Kiehl’s introduces the Clearly Corrective Brightening and Smoothing Moisture Treatment, RM210 (50ml), an ultra-lightweight, innovative hydrator featuring dermatologist-trusted Glycolic Acid in concert with the company’s signature skin clarity ingredient, Activated C (a high-performance Vitamin C derivative) that actively brightens, smooths, and refines skin for a smoother texture. After just 1 week of using this treatment, 86% of women agreed their skin had a luminous and translucent glow and felt soothed, while 94% agreed their skin felt moisturized.
Always focused on the needs of even its most sensitive skincare customers, Kiehl’s chemists utilized precise concentrations of the Glycolic Acid ingredient to retain its exfoliation benefits, while remaining tolerable and appropriate for sensitive skin types.
When combined with complementary ingredients in the formula, it targets the 3 key causes of loss of clarity.
- Glycolic Acid supports desquamation to help improve skin texture: Glycolic Acid helps to gently exfoliate the top layers of the skin allowing light to better reflect off of skin for a more luminous appearance. Proper exfoliation also allows for better penetration of subsequent ingredients or serums.
- White Birch & Peony address dehydration: As skin ages, moisture binding molecules within skin begin to deplete. Essential moisture escapes through the skin’s surface, which contributes to dull, tired looking skin, coarse texture, and more visible fine lines and wrinkles. White Birch Extract and a blend of moisture-binding humectants in the formula draw moisture from the air to help offer 24-hour hydration in the skin’s layers. Peony Extract helps neutralize free radicals, helping to maintain skin health so that it more readily receives and maintains moisture.
- Activated C decreases discoloration: With age, skin is exposed to environmental aggressors, leading to oxidation and resulting in discoloration on the skin’s surface. In the formula, Activated C, a completely stable, fast-acting Vitamin C molecule, helps brighten skin while helping to reduce the appearance of new spots and discolorations.
Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution, RM230 (30ml)
In 2011, utilizing Activated C, Kiehl’s chemists first established leadership in skin clarity with the launch of the Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution (CCDS). To date, this formula is one of the most trusted serums for skin clarity, winning 19 global beauty awards and selling over 4 million bottles worldwide. It helps to diminish the appearance of existing discolorations and reduce the appearance of new ones. This beloved formula, which is 100% active upon application, is shown to improve dark spot intensity, hyperpigmentation, skin tone radiance, luminosity, and skin clarity.
