Kiehl's Ultra Facial Moisturizer 4.2 fl oz — Lightweight Fragrance-Free Hydrating Cream with Squalane

Kiehl's Ultra Facial Moisturizer is a lightweight, fragrance-free daily cream that restores the skin's moisture barrier using squalane and glycerin for long-lasting hydration and a softer, smoother complexion.

This moisturizer is formulated for everyday use and designed to replenish lost hydration without feeling heavy or greasy. The balanced combination of squalane and glycerin helps lock in moisture while supporting the skin’s natural barrier, so skin looks more even and feels comfortable throughout the day. Its simple, fragrance-free formula suits a variety of routines—apply morning and night to clean skin or layer under sunscreen and makeup.

How will this moisturizer fit into my morning routine?

Apply a pea-sized amount to clean, dry skin after cleansing and any lightweight serums. It absorbs quickly and creates a hydrated base that keeps skin comfortable under sunscreen and makeup without pilling.

• Use after cleansing and serum application.
• Absorbs fast for easy makeup layering.
• Fragrance-free to minimize irritation under other products.
• Suitable for daily AM use with SPF.

Can this cream help if my skin feels dry or tight?

The formula contains glycerin, a humectant that attracts and retains moisture, plus squalane to support the skin’s protective barrier. Together they alleviate dryness and leave skin feeling softer and more supple without heavy residue.

• Glycerin locks in hydration to relieve tightness.
• Squalane supports barrier repair and smoothness.
• Lightweight texture avoids greasy finish.
• Works across seasons to improve comfort.

Is this suitable for sensitive or combination skin types?

Because it is fragrance-free and formulated with gentle, effective hydrators, it's appropriate for most skin types including combination and sensitive skin. The non-comedogenic texture balances moisture without overloading oil-prone areas.

• Fragrance-free reduces risk of irritation.
• Non-greasy feel suits combination skin.
• Gentle hydrators are well-tolerated by sensitive skin.
• Can be used day and night as needed.

How much should I use and how often?

A pea-sized amount is usually enough for face and neck; adjust slightly for drier skin or environmental needs. Use once or twice daily—apply after cleansing and targeted treatments for the best results.

• Start with a pea-sized dose and increase if needed.
• Apply to face and neck; massage until absorbed.
• Use morning and/or night depending on hydration needs.
• Layer under SPF in the morning for protection.

Who is this for: Kiehl's Ultra Facial Moisturizer is aimed at anyone seeking straightforward, reliable daily hydration—people with normal, combination, dry, or sensitive skin who want an easy-to-use, fragrance-free cream that supports the skin’s moisture barrier. It’s practical for those who prefer lightweight textures that layer well under sunscreen and makeup, and for travelers or busy routines that need dependable moisture without fuss.
