Inhale. Now exhale. Next, slather on some of Kiehl’s new Skin Rescuer Stress-Minimizing Daily Hydrator. Ahhhhh….feel better? Kiehl’s new cream helps reduce stress on skin that causes those nasty breakouts, red patches and dryness that comes from our internal stress levels. While this cream may not be able to reduce what is giving us the stress, it helps combat the effects on our skin from the inside-out and the outside-in. We all know that stress can take a major toll on our health and skin – I have seen plenty of co-workers look like complete hell in the toughest moments at work. AND, stress leads to (gasp!) premature aging.
Kiehl’s calming concoction combines chamomile extract, glycerin and shea butter to treat, calm and hydrate the skin. Rose gallica extract limits the release of “stress signals” to the skin – this is the distressing part. Then the skin’s barriers are protected from future reactions with mannose (works from the inside), squalene (this is the outside-in magic) and a proprietary ceramide blend. Keil’s is calling this a “game-changer.” Hmm…wonder if I can use this while doing yoga to achieve total beauty…
Kiehl’s – $40, found online, in specialty stores and in department stores.
