Abyssine, a naturally derived survival molecule which thrives under the extreme conditions in hydrothermal ocean vents where magma and seawater mix.

Apricot Kernel Oil is extracted from apricot kernels and has a very high Vitamin E content (aiding fast absorption) and is a trygliceride composed of 75% oleic acid and 20% linoleic acid, and unsaturated fatty acids esterified with glycerin - similar to avocado oil and sesame oil. Found to be highly compatible with the skin. Apricot Kernel Oil moisturizes and softens skin while helping retain clarity and suppleness.

This "vegetal coral" is an unusual, mineral-rich red algae with the unusual ability to produce a gel which forms a self-defensive, calcified shell from minerals found in sea water. It has been shown to thicken the stratum corneum layer of skin and to help reinforce the moisture barrier function of the skin.

Apply to clean skin in the morning and reapply as needed before sun exposure. Children under 6 months of age ask a doctor.

Question I'm wondering what the difference is between the Abyssine Lotion and Abyssine Cream... I have a sample of the lotion which is great, but I see the cream on the top 10 favorite Kiehl's products which made me wonder. I'm guessing the cream is thicker, but has anyone tried both and noticed a big difference? Thank you!

  • Answer I've used both. The lotion works great for me, the cream is way too thick and heavy for me. I love having the SPF as well. You can try samples of both and decide. I always try samples of the Kiehl's products before I buy them. If they don't show as available, any Kiehl's store will put together a sample of the cream for you. by Karin A 05/03/12
Why did you choose this product?

I'm 65 and when I use this I look infinitely(?) younger! I adore this product!!

This product really helps maintain great skin condition. I live in a very sunny climate and need skin protection.

i have tried other products in this group and liked them. like this package to take to the gym for a daily moist..

It is my favorite moisturizer.

I have used it for years - it is a light lotion with a lot of moisturizing power

I have used this for years, I love it!

It is very light and love the feel of lotion compared to creme.

It fits me

Liked the sample.

I use this every day, under my foundation. I love that it helps protect from the sun.

I've been using this lotion for almost 15 years and absolutely love it. It's the perfect amount of hydration and I like that it has the SPF protection.

Love this product!!!

sounds like what i need and it has a good reputation

I tried a sample from the store and LOVED it!

This is my first time trying your products. I read the reviews and I wanted to try it.

Its the best product ive ever used. Ive been using it for years.

A friend had given me some to try, and I really liked itfor sun protection on the days I do not put on makeup

The BEST facial moisturizer I have ever used. And it has SPF. It minimized my fine lines, and also cleared up my skin, somehow. Amazing.

I have found this to be the best moisturizer for my dry skin. Unlike some moisturizers that feel like they stay on the skins surface Abyssine penetrates into the layers of skin and leaves it non-greasy and soft to the touch.

Love the product. Have been using it for several years

moving to florida and need much lighter lotion than I do here in new york
