Kiehl's

i love their papaya facial scrubs, which is a must have for all season long. Also, their haircare products are a must have. After using their hair products for the first time i bought a extra set to put in my hair salon for my personal use. The olive hair mask i used it every time i go to the hair salon. The serum and straightening creme makes your hair feels light unlike other product does and also keeps your hair unfrizzed. Creme de Corps must have for the winter and my boyfriend love it too, heals his dry skin. But for the summer time i always use their grapefruit body lotion because the light scent and light texture. Staffs are very polite and nice. they willing to give you tons of samples but usually they give you like 3-4 samples but i was at george town in DC there's a lady who gave me like 12 samples of the cleansers for combination skin. She was so grateful. My favorite gift to give my friends and family now! I am NYC, but the kiehl's store is like 30 mins from where i live so, whenever i go up to philadelphia to visit my boyfriend's family, they will see me with a kiehl's bag full of gifts for them. One more thing i like about kiehl's stores is that when you told them that its a gift, they packed it up your stuffs and put extra samples in the gift bag or gift box for you. plus on top of that you also get your samples too. Wonderful! i love them. more

The store is well organized and the sales people are very helpful. You can find basically any type of skin care products and they have many hair products too. I've tried their samples first and ended up getting most of the products I tried. Their rare earth mask is my favorite. if you want something to cleans and refresh your face, ask for a sample and give it a try! more

Kiehl's products are fantastic, and their store is a lot of fun; definitely go here for the crazy retro vibe and lots of free samples as opposed to the department store counter at Barney's. I particularly recommend their haircare products, which are light, but thorough and do wonders on curly and ethnic hair. Their stuff isn't cheap, but is entirely worth the price you pay. more

Kiehl's is now sold all over the country, in countless department stores, but this is still me favorite location to purchase my skin, hair, and bath products from their line. The staff, in their little white coats, are so attentive and more knowledgeable than any department store counter clerk could be. The store has been around for ages, and I love reading the articles about the Heidegger family, and their athletic feats, while I shop. Their products are pure and have a clean simplicity about them, even those with fragrance, because they are never cloying or overwhelming. Personal favorites include the "Wet Look" groom for my curly hair and the Creme de Corps body lotion. They also send you home with samples of many of their products for you to try. This is very effective, as you wind up being converted to new products in the process. Overall, this is a much more personable shopping experience and worth making the detour for, rather than going to your nearest department store Kiehl's counter. more

This USED to be a nice place to stop in and try stuff and talk to the sales people about skincare and walk away with some samples to try before you buy. Currently the staff seems snobby and devote less time for you and stingy with the samples. The sales clerk actually suggested I buy the bottle and then try it and if I don't like it return it. Talk about being pressured to buy. Also I don't understand why over the few years they have been discontinuing their best products. Beats me. more

They have a great laid out store with harleys and vintage motorcycles throughout the store. The place is very simple and neatly designed. The staff is extremely helpful and can offer you suggestions based on your skin type. The have excellent lotions, but I'd definitely spot test before using them. Save your receipt they have a really good money-back guarantee! more

While they have tried to retain their character sinche they were bought out from being a privately owned store they aren't the same. Granted their stuff is still great, but their service used to be better. They sell some of the best creams and stuff on the market. I personnally like their shaving stuff. That said, they used to give out better and more samples which were awesome for travel. They have gotten a lot more stingy even if you buy a decent amount of stuff from them. I guess having more a focus on the bottom line has changed them. more

The only skin care store you will ever need. What can I say about this place? It’s the best! I have been purchasing all my skin care needs here for the past 5 years and my skin has never been better. They are a family run business established since 1851 and there’s no wondering how they lasted this long. First off their products are excellent. They have facial scrubs, facial soaps, moisturizers, lip balms, anything and everything that has to do with skin care. If you don’t know or not sure of which products are best suited for your skin type, then just ask for a sample. They’re more then willing to hand out samples of all their products. The workers there are top notch, super friendly and extremely knowledgeable. You may find their products a bit pricy but they’re worth every penny. If you’ve haven’t already, go check them out! They have a web page as well. On a side note, they have really cool antique motorcycles inside for your viewing pleasure. more
