this is my daily moisturizer,SPF cream and Wrinkle/Line Reducer in one!!!! It's expensive($63), i know. But i spend the money on skincare i believe in. And i'm a big believer in some products from Kiehl's. This Abyssine Cream is one of them.I love that it has SPF 23 in it, i love how it moisturizes my skin in summer and in winter..It doesn't irritate my very sensitive skin and it didn't let me break out.
I also see improvement in my fine lines (also in my deeper wrinkle on my forehead between my eyes!!!This Cream works great for me and i will not stop using it! It's my daily skin routine in the morning (after i applied my dark spot serum).It's a relative thick cream but dissolves instantly and doesn't leave a greasy shine.my skin feels so soft and hydrated after it. )

Some facts from Kiehl's:

This skin-age deterrent is made with naturally derived ingredients and is formulated to help reduce the signs of aging and help protect skin from harmful UVA/UVB rays during sun exposure. Abyssine, a survival molecule that thrives under extreme conditions in hydrothermal ocean vents, helps sooth and protect skin. Combined with Corrallina extract, sourced from mineral-rich red algae with self-defensive properties, our formula helps minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while defending skin from free radicals and sun damage.
