Beauty Review: Kiehl's Intensive Treatment & Moisturizer


I really love to shower. Maybe it's partially because of my OCD, my aversion to germs or germophobia, but I think I really just like to shower. I shower at least 2x a day, once in the morning and once at night. In the winter it can be drying, especially with the cold weather. (We hit a low of 20F, 5F with the windchill, today.) So, I need to make sure I moisturize day and night. I've tried a bunch of different lotions including Aquaphor and Johnsons 24 hour lotion moisturizer but nothing quite works as well as Kiehl's Intensive Treatment and Moisturizer. I got the large size, an 8oz tub, good for every day use. It's a nice consistancy, not too watery not too oily and it doesn't have any odor. I didn't like Aquaphor because it was too oily. It reminds me of A&D ointment or bacitracin. I would only use it on my hands or feet for extreme moisturizing. Johnson's 24 hour moisturizer is a good 2nd choice and cost effective but in the winter I prefer something with a thicker, creamier consistancy. Kiehl's Intensive Treatment and Moisturizer is perfect solution for those dry winter days.
