Not for sensitive skin ...

Upon receiving this complimentary product, I was super excited to finally get a chance to try a Kiehl's brand product. The Kiehl's Ultra-Pure High Potency Serum 9.8% Glycolic Acid arrived in a semi-sturdy red and white branded package with black lettering. The serum is enclosed in a small glass bott...

Good ingredients but didn't work well for me personally

This is the second Kiehl's product I've tried and wanted to love but just didn't have success with. The ingredients are simple, the packaging is understated and clean, and the serum is clear and watery, so in theory I should have been able to layer it under my moisturizer. For me, the product was ve...

I had a small rough area near my nose. After using this serum it cleared within 1 week. I use this serum at night. My skin has improved a lot since using this serum. Its a 5 Stars for me!

I bought this product a month ago and have been using a small amount nightly. Unfortunately with the warmer temps and sun my face began having a burn reaction. It created large red blotches on my cheeks and below my eyes that are very painful. It seems like a mixture of a chemical burn and sun burn. I didn't think this would be a problem since I have only been applying the product at night. I'm pretty bummed because I wanted to love this product but unfortunately will not be able to keep it.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

This stuff is great and can be a chemical peel in a bottle. I use it 2-3 nights per weeks along with physical exfoliation and retinol every other week

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Been using this product for a few weeks to properly see how it works on my skin and it's been working so nicely for me. It has a really nice consistency and properly absorbs into my skin and gives it the nicest glow. It's improved my skin texture and tone a lot. I've had a tiny rough skin patch on my forehead for a month and this really helped to smooth it out. It doesn't dry out my skin either like some other products. Super hydrating!!
