LICENSE TO KIEHL'S
YOUR GUIDE TO ONE OF THE MOST REVERED BRANDS IN MEN’S GROOMING
Kiehl’s is oftenthought of as a “gateway drug” to serious grooming. Many men get a sample of their products or a recommendation from a friend -- and from there -- there’s no turning back. Kiehl's has hundreds of solutions -- so here’s a brief rundown to make sense of the mega brand.
A BRIEF HIS-TORY
Founded over 150 years ago in New York City’s East Village, Kiehl's began as a pharmacy offering popular treatments of the day to NYC’s upper crust and became one of the first brands to introduce men’s-specific products in the 1960’s.
Now, Kiehl’s has the reputation as a grooming standby and pioneer, using the finest ingredients and incomparable experience (along with that cool old-school pharmacy packaging) to produce some of the best grooming solutions on the market.
The Goods For Guys
Kiehl’s products are broken into several lines to meet men's needs:
FACIAL FUEL
FACIAL FUEL: By far the most popular products for guys, well-rounded line adds an energizing boost of caffeine to the daily routine. We recommend trying the Facial Fuel Moisturizer to get going in the morning before a long day.
ULTRA
ULTRA: Top-notch products with a dermatological focus to supply skin with maximum moisture and sun protection. Line is excellent for those who lean towards the dry or sensitive side of skincare and need more delicate solutions.
OIL ELIMINATOR
OIL ELIMINATOR: Potent line focuses on eliminating excess oils and is excellent for those with oily/acne prone skin. Each product effectively reduces oil on the skin's surface and works towards eliminating shine and providing a matte-finish.
BLUE HERBAL
BLUE HERBAL: One of the oldest lines in the current Kiehl’s lineup, vintage “blue stuff” is a reliable soother and powerful astringent for oily or issue-prone skin. Each product leaves skin clean and calm with way less oil around to muddle complexion.
RARE EARTH
RARE EARTH: Specialized line packs genuine Amazon White River Clay for maximum cleaning power on oily skin. Each product penetrates into deepest layers of skin to cleanse pores of dirt, oil & impurities that cause acne and other mug mishaps.
SHAVING
SHAVING: Top-notch line softens up whiskers to provide super-close shaves regardless of skin type. Line guarantees a super smooth post-shave mug and leaves the skin feeling extremely calm and relaxed.
CORE PRODUCTS
CORE PRODUCTS: Kiehl’s classics that have you covered from head to toe (literally), including the legendary Amino Acid Shampoo and Conditioner, as well as the Superbly Efficient Anti-Perspirant & Deodorant.
