I have mentioned this so many times on my blog that I must sound like a stuck record, but exfoliation is the key to a good skin and I don't mean exfoliating once in a while, I mean religiously once a week, every week of every year.
It's the most instantly rewarding skincare product that you can invest in.
I have used exfoliators religiously since I was around 21years of age and whilst other steps in my skincare regime may have come and gone over the years my weekly smoothing, brightening scrub/peel/exfoliator has always remained a constant.
Over the years I have had rather a love/hate relationship with Kiehl's products

To be fair I have only been using a sample of the,
KIEHLS NIGHTLY REFINING MICRO-PEEL CONCENTRATE
which I know isn't ideal, but as I say in the title, it's a Mini Review.
I managed to squeeze two applications out of the sample.
Over the years I have had rather a love/hate relationship with Kiehl's products
I either absolutely love a product or literally hate it, so much so, that I haven't had such a relationship with a skincare brand like it before and don't forget I've had a lifetime career in beauty.
I have tried previously their kiehl's Over-Night Biological Peel and I didn't enjoy it, yet I have bought on several occasions their Kiehl's Epidermal Re-Texturizing Dermabrasion , which I can highly recommend, as it's a great product and one that I love. However lets put that aside and see if this product falls into the
"Love or Hate" category.
This nightly micro-peel concentrate helps to refine the feel of rough texture and reveal newly radiant, refreshed skin and who doesn't want a more refined, radiant refreshed skin.
Yes this potent yet gentle chemical facial peel effectively exfoliates while you sleep.
For the first time in a facial skincare product, quinoa husk extract has been formulated into an anti-ageing overnight treatment.
How to Apply:
This product is safe enough for nightly use.
Apply after cleansing & toning and before a concentrated serum.
Press concentrate into face until absorbed
Follow with your nightly moisturiser.

I was somewhat surprised by the products runny consistency, so care needs to be taken on application and a little does go a long way.
Whilst it was easy to use and I just used it under my current night cream,
I did find it a little tacky and sticky, so just allow to dry before applying any other products over the top.
I can't say that I noticed any difference with the brightness or radiance, but
I did feel a slight smoothness to my skin, but to be honest, it didn't
"Rock my Exfoliating World"
and with a hefty price of R820 this isn't an exfoliating product that I can rave about, so it seems like its another fail from me for this underwhelming peel.
That being said and to be fair to the product, I did only use it twice and I'm sure
with consistent use this product would perhaps perform better.
