14 October 2010

Every now and then vendors are invited into the office, where they set up in a conference room for a few hours and sell their products. Usually it's children's books or horrible handbags but today it was ...→[More:]

KIEHL'S!! At a twenty percent discount! As I staggered back to my desk laden with Crème de Corps, lip balm, Yerba Maté moisturiser, argon oil and a ton of assorted and very exciting freebies I said to the other women in my team "Aren't you going to the Kiehl's sale?" "The what?"

They'd never heard of Kiehl's! I tried to explain to them but they didn't understand ... Pink Superhero, where were you today when I needed you!

Best day ever in the office.

Is this the one you were having trouble finding and had to order online? Even if it isn't, that's super awesome!

We used to have a book man that came in at the medical supply company. I bought an awesome Civil War book from him and a monkey slingshot from him.

They had never heard of Kiehl's?

My 20 year old cousin in nowhere, New Zealand has heard of Kiehl's (and he demands that I send him some every 6mo or so). Wow.

Also, awesome!

I've never heard of Kiehl's. What's Kiehl's?
posted by mudpuppie 14 October | 12:06
Me neither. (Thanks for helping me be brave enough to admit it, mudpuppie.) Please, enlighten us!

ARE YOU KIDDING???? Score! *dies of jealousy*

I love Kiehl's but they are pricey, pricey. Nice score, senyar! Their Rare Earth clay mask rocks.

They gave me four sample sachets of the Rare Earth Clay Mask! Swag! Free Swag! I love my swag!

I'm going to have to buy some of their products for myself so I can see what all the fuss is about. What do you recommend?
posted by youngergirl44 14 October | 15:40
Creme de Corps
Lip Balm #1 (tragically no longer available in the 1.0 oz tub! I weep!)
Creme with Silk Groom
I thoroughly enjoyed my sample of Eye Alert; will buy full-sized. I've also liked the Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado.

Oh, and the Pineapple Papaya Facial Scrub!
posted by ThePinkSuperhero 14 October | 15:49
The Pineapple Papaya Facial Scrub isn't a normal scrub - it doesn't have grains in it to exfoliate. Instead the bromelins (enzymes) in the pineapple and papaya act as the exfoliant.

Years ago the Body Shop used to do a pineapple facial wash that was amazing, but they stopped it a few years ago. It was, of course, much cheaper than Kiehl's.

Re the Facial Scrub, you can rub it into your skin like a moisturiser, leave it on overnight and when you rinse your face in the morning your skin will be the softest it's ever been. (This also works with fresh pineapple, except it feels a little sticky on your face until it's dried.)

I also like the Calendula toner, but didn't get any today as I'd just bought one a short while ago. It's very soothing on the skin particularly if, like me, you have a high colour.

Take advantage of the Kiehl's. It's just a fact.

Nice!

Awesome score Senyar! Way to go!

I JUST GOT AN EMAIL FROM RECEPTION AT WORK SAYING THAT MORE FREEBIES HAVE BEEN DELIVERED FOR EVERYONE WHO PURCHASED SOMETHING YESTERDAY!! I'm working from home today so will collect the little box with my name on it on Monday.

*does the happy dance*

WHY DO YOU KEEP RUBBING IT IN
posted by ThePinkSuperhero 15 October | 18:22
Never heard of Kiehl's either, I'm afraid. I just have my Oil of Olay. Keeps the forehead from flaking.

(I feel very un-girlie. Anybody wanna chew some tobacco and ride a bull? Enjoy the goodies, though!)
