 Kiehls gets even more of my money  

I've been a fan of the shaving creams and various other amenities from Kiehls for a few years now. 'She' took a couple of our common Kiehls purchases when she moved out, so I stopped by the 13th St store with the intent to restock. Instead, I realized how awful the NYC summer heat and humidty has been on my face the past few weeks: my skin gets ridiculously oily and for whatever reason it has just been painful to shave (as if I 'scratch' the skin, and I end up with lots of red spots), and hot/itchy if I dont shave for a few days...

So I went to Kiehls and asked for help -- then I walked out with these recommendations from the staff:

Obviously, I'm supposed to use this after shaving (I already have 2 of their shaving creams, which blow everything else that I've tried away)

They said I should use this in the afternoon, when I get home from work...

...and to use this after cleaning my face later in the day, or if I don't shave in the morning...

...and finally to use this at night.

Two days in, and my face has been way less oily and shaving doesn't hurt -- if this keeps up for another week I'll be ridiculously happy.
