As it's winter, my skin is extremely dry, so I was looking for a good night cream and found the Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concentrate. I normally use Kiehl's Hydro-Plumping Re-Texturizing Serum Concentrate and it works really well for my skin, making it soft and hydrated, so I had high hopes for this Kiehl's product as well. It definitely provides more substantial hydration compared to my regular moisturizer. The texture is better than expected for a night balm - it applies smoothly without feeling too heavy or greasy. It's thicker than a regular cream, but not to the point where I need to melt it or it drags when applying. It just glides on effortlessly. The absorption is also decent - I don't have to really work it into my skin, and I find it's fully absorbed by the time I'm done with my other nighttime routine steps. Since it lasts longer than my usual moisturizer, this is a godsend for someone like me who struggles with dry skin in the winter and isn't satisfied with regular hydrating creams. I don't even need to use a separate facial oil with this, it's that nourishing.
ConsThe scent... the scent is just awful ㅜㅜ I'm not usually very sensitive to smells, and I don't mind the fragrances in most of the other products I use, except for shampoo. But with this, I just can't ignore the unpleasant odor, no matter how hard I try ㅜ
TipIf the night balm feels too heavy during your morning routine, you can use your regular moisturizer and just apply a thin layer of the balm on top to lock in the hydration for longer.

As it is a balm-type, even a small amount was enough to keep my skin well-moisturized. So I also used it on my body, and it worked really well.
ConsI'm quite sensitive to scents, so the product's distinctive fragrance wasn't particularly appealing to me. And being an oily-skinned person, the heavy, balm-like texture was a bit off-putting.
TipTo improve the application, you can warm up the product in your palms before use, or mix it with a thinner cream-type product.

It's great. When I mix it with my usual all-in-one product, which lacks moisture, there are no breakouts and my skin feels hydrated.
ConsThe smell is a bit strange haha. I got used to it after using it, but at first, I didn't want to apply it. Kiehl's products are usually like that.
TipWhen I mix a small amount of Kiehl's cream with a sensitive skin product, it replenishes the moisture without causing any breakouts.

It's also nice that the fragrance adapts over time as you use it. Just applying one product leaves a moisturized feeling.
ConsStrangely, my face feels irritated and painful every time I apply it. But there doesn't seem to be anything particularly wrong, though a few small pimples may be appearing.
TipFor those with combination skin, it would be best to apply only a small amount to dry areas or around the eyes.

I've been using it really well from last winter to spring, but lately it's been too hot, so I only use it occasionally now. I'm so glad I got the large size instead of the regular one last year!
ConsI don't recommend this for oily skin. And when you apply it, there's a slightly tight feeling. But lately in the summer, it's not as tight and spreads on well.
