Key Ingredients:
Pure Vitamin C- L-Ascorbic Acid, also known as Pure Vitamin C, is a highly efficacious antioxidant known for its ability to improve the appearance of aging skin. In addition to antioxidant protection, Pure Vitamin C is known to help boost radiance, improve texture and visibly reduce the appearance of lines, wrinkles and other signs of aging. There's also a direct link to improvement in Dark Circle

Tri-Peptide- Peptides are essential building blocks of protein that perform important biological functions. These naturally occurring molecules are made up of short chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds. Our formula with Tri-Peptide Complex gradually helps counteract the visible effects of dark circles and puffiness.

Fragmented Hyaluronic Acid- This fast-absorbing form of Hyaluronic Acid is known for its ability to hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. Acting like a sponge, it draws moisture into skin's surface layers and expands as it absorbs. Hyaluronic Acid is known to help smooth and plump skin and is commonly used in skincare products intended to visibly reduce facial lines and refine texture.

How to Use:

• After cleansing, dispense onto fingertip and apply to clean skin
• Gently pat and smooth under the eye area along the sub-orbital bone
• Use dark circle eye cream every morning and evening
• Keep out of eyes
• If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water
• Treat fine lines and wrinkles with a potent Vitamin C serum for smoother, radiant, younger-looking skin

Did You Know:
Not all dark circles are the same. Depending on factors including skin tone, sun exposure, lifestyle and sleep, they can appear brown or blue.

Brown Dark Circles: Can be caused by hyperpigmentation and may darken with sun exposure.

Blue Dark Circles: Can be related to puffiness and excess fluid under the eyes.

The original Kiehl’s apothecary first served patrons in 1851, at the corner of 13th Street and Third Avenue in New York City.

In 1894, after honing his trade as an ambitious apprentice, pharmacist John Kiehl purchased the apothecary. John Kiehl & Co. began operations under “Kiehl Pharmacy.”

Mr. Irving Morse, John Kiehl’s apprentice, took over the business in 1921 and expanded the offerings to a full-service pharmacy, stocking teas, herbs, tinctures, honeys, and the first-ever Kiehl brand products, including the Original Musk Oil, our signature scent.

In 1924, Kiehl’s became one of the first companies to proudly list ingredients on its product labels — even before the U.S. government mandated it — to help customers make more informed and confident purchasing decisions.

Kiehl’s Pharmacy began introducing bold new products in 1962, such as Calendula Herbal-Extract Toner, Blue Astringent Lotion (loved by Andy Warhol), Kiehl’s Lip Balm #1, and Ultra Facial Moisturizer — all still among our best sellers today.

In 2006, Kiehl’s introduced Dermatologist SolutionsTM, a collection of advanced skincare formulated by Kiehl’s chemists (and developed in collaboration with an advisory panel of leading dermatologists) to address specific skin concerns.

Today, our nature-inspired, scientifically-proven formulas are powerful yet safe and help improve overall skin quality for visibly healthier-looking skin.
