Key Ingredients

SQUALANE

A signature Kiehl’s ingredient, Squalane is a highly-refined botanical lipid derived from olives. With an exceptional affinity to skin, Squalane absorbs easily and is known to help replenish the skin’s moisture barrier, keeping it soft, supple and moisturised.

GLYCERIN

Glycerin, a well-known skincare ingredient, is highly compatible and naturally occurring within skin. Within our formulas, it is renewable and a powerful humectant known to help retain moisture and soften skin

AMINO ACID SURFACTANT

Amino Acid Surfactants, ideal for sensitive skin type, are gentle and mild. Though gentle, this type of ingredient also creates a rich, dense foam within our formula that effectively cleanses dirt, makeup and sunscreen while protecting the skin’s barrier.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Ultra Facial Barrier-Hydrating Cleanser remove makeup?

Yes, the Ultra Facial cream to foam cleanser effectively removes dirt and makeup. It is tested to help remove SPF, foundation, and micro-particle pollution for a thorough cleanse to start your skincare routine. It should not be used for the eye area.

I have acne, will this cleanser be effective for me?

Yes. Our Ultra Facial Barrier-Hydrating Cleanser is non-comedogenic and suitable for all skin types. When managing acne-prone skin, it’s important to use gentle formulas that support the skin barrier. For active breakouts, we recommend exploring our Dermatologist Solutions Acne range for targeted treatment.

What makes the Ultra Facial Barrier-Hydrating Cleanser better for facial skin than a traditional cleanser?

This sensitive skin cleanser is formulated with ingredients clinically proven to hydrate for up to 24 hours and protect the skin barrier. Our signature ingredient Squalane hydrates, while Amino Acids and Glycerin cleanse without stripping or over-drying like a traditional cleanser.

Is this hydrating cream-to-foam cleanser suitable for sensitive skin (i.e. eczema, rosacea and psoriasis prone skin)?

What is the difference between Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cleanser and Barrier-Hydrating Cleanser?

Both cleansers are gentle and hydrating. Ultra Facial Cleanser is a foaming formula for all skin types that removes excess oil without drying the skin, while Ultra Facial Barrier-Hydrating Cleanser is a cream-to-foam formula for sensitive skin that lifts impurities without disrupting the skin barrier.

What is a cream-to-foam cleanser?

Do I need to moisturise after using a hydrating cleanser?

Yes. Even after using a hydrating cleanser like our foaming cream cleanser, it's essential to apply a moisturiser for extra hydration. Follow with our Ultra Facial Cream with squalane for deep and lasting moisture. To replenish skin on the go, try our Ultra Facial Barrier Balm, a convenient stick formula that strengthens and hydrates throughout the day.
