I love this Kiehl's glycolic acid serum! It is easy to apply and goes on smooth. It absorbs into my skin instead of sitting on top and making my skin oily. I notice my skin looking brighter and smoother.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
