Kiehl's Serum do Oczu na Noc - Rozświetlający Sekret Młodości
The Science Behind Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Omega-Rich Cloud Cream
With the ingredients found in the Midnight Recovery Cream, the skin’s moisture barrier gets a major boost each night. But why is that so important? Dr. Geeta Yadav, board-certified dermatologist and founder of the Skin Science Dermatology Clinic explains that harsh skin care ingredients, aging, pollution, and genetics can create a weakened barrier — and Omega fatty acids help maintain its health. “Omega fatty acids are an essential component of the stratum corneum, the outermost layer of the skin, which is also known as the moisture or lipid barrier,” she says. “Replenishing your skin with ingredients like omega fatty acids is crucial to a healthy stratum corneum.”
Dr. Jennifer Salsberg, Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto and board-certified dermatologist, expands on how fatty acids like Omega 3 and 6 help keep the moisture barrier intact. She uses a brick and mortar analogy, where our skin cells are bricks and fatty acids are the mortar, locking moisture into the skin. “Fatty acids are one component of the ‘mortar’ that hold corneocytes, or skin cells, together,” she says. “Since [Omega fatty acids] naturally repel water, they help the skin keep moisture in by minimizing transepidermal water loss, or moisture being lost through the skin’s surface.”
Is The Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Omega-Rich Cloud Cream Worth It?
At $53 for 50 ml, I think this cream is decently priced, and it’s more affordable than similar products from other prestige brands. For example, night creams from brands like Clinique and Fresh are priced anywhere from $65 to $94. Overall, I think the cost of Midnight Recovery and the results I saw in my skin are aligned. This might be a product to explore once you start noticing more significant dryness and dullness and want to upgrade your nighttime skin care routine.
