Diane K: I hope it will help with my wrinkles and I will not get any more.Jun 16, 2013
Tracy S: I've only in the last months started using PWRC, and the results are amazing. This luxury cream has diminished my fine lines, and has smoothed out my frown lines. Since PWRC is a bit thicker than the Abyssine line, the trick is to take your time, rubbing the cream into your skin in small circular motions especially on your forehead. You'll be hooked after the first use!Jun 16, 2013

Jeanne R: Wow! What a great product! I only use this at night, and the Ultra Face Cream during the day. My face has softened and finer wrinkle lines reduced.....AND some of the larger ones have reduced as my skin has become plumper and firmer. I'm 70 and look 55. I am a Kiehl-believer!Jun 1, 2013

MARION D:PCA stands for Pyrrolidone Carboxylic Acid (You asked!). Copper PCA jump starts collagen and elastin production. I have been using this cream for a little over a week and have been pleased with the results I am already seeing in skin texture, firmness and reduction of lines. It absorbs quickly, no odor and not much is needed. I really like this cream and look forward to seeing how it progresses in the weeks to come.Jan 11, 2013

Lynette D:I'm sorry to not be of mor help, but I don't wear foundation. I only use a pressed mineral powder, which works just fine. I love the cream. Apr 12, 2013
Glen C:I don't know if this cream is technically or clinically non-comedogenic, but I would expect that all of Kiehl's products would be. I have been using this since the week it came out and have had no sense that it is other than non-comedogenic. There was a comment from a customer about the wrinkle reducing eye-cream being clumpy, but I have not at all experienced that. I'm pleased, overall, with this product and the way it works with other Kiehl products; I've re-ordered a supply, which comes out of this affirmative experience.Mar 18, 2013
Brenda M:I just love this cream , it absorbs in the skin , and everyone tells me I don't look my age . It must be working . Love these products . I am and will be a long time customer because it works !!!!!!Mar 19, 2013

Stella M:Hi Mary H, The jar states "...with Copper PCA and Abyssine visibly....". The ingredients list does not state "Copper PCA" and "Abyssine", unless they are in one of these chemicals...? Aqua/Water; Cyclohexasiloxane; Glycerin; Prunas Americana Kernel Oil/Apricot Kernel Oil; Cetyl Alcohol; Dimethicone; Zea Mays Starch/Corn Starch;Petroleum; Glyceryl Stearate; Potassium Cetyl Phosphate; PEG-40; Stearate; Sorbitan Tristearate; Cera Alba/Beeswax; Butylene Glycol; Phenoxyethanol; Dimethiconol; Cappyl Glycol; Palmitoyl.....Apr 9, 2013
I checked on the website, and did not see a percentage, but I have found customer service to be very helpful when I have had a specific question about a product.. I use this product daily, over the Powerful Line Reducing serum, and have found it an effective combination.Apr 11, 2013
Carol N:Since I am just a customer and not an employee of Kiehl's, I was surprised that they sent this question to me. However, wishing to be helpful :), I Googled the question, and found a website for the UK, which Kiehl's will not let me post. You can Google Kiehl's UK, and should be able to pull up the site. Good luck!Mar 3, 2013
Lynette D:I'm not sure about over seas shipping. You should contact Kiehls through the web page to find out specifics. It is an amazing product. I hope this has helped, Lynette Mar 3, 2013
CarolD asked:Tell me what to get for a complete skin treatment. I am 68, have wrinkles, eyes, mouth, cheeks and pores are larger than used to be. I have a pouch under my left eye that I can not get rid of....I am getting old but would like to find something to help my skin look alive... help?Mar 3, 2013
Note: A light hand on the eye treatments ....a little goes a long way ...as with all of the Kiehl products! And don't forget to use you ring finger, only, for the delicate eye area application.
If you have a Clairsonic, use with your cleanser.
Kiehls products are excellent but keep in mind that no topical product can give you back your youth....but Kiehl's products can certainly soften the blows time hands us and help us age gracefully.Mar 10, 2013
Stella M:Hi Carol D, I use the Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Cream when my skin is dry (during winter). I use it daily for my neck area and upper chest area. It is not a "miracle" cream. It is a little heavy, so I use very little. I probably would not use this cream if my pores are large. I have small bags under my eyes, and I have not found a cream to eliminate them. Check with your doctor, dermatologist or aesthetician for ideas.Apr 9, 2013
Carol N:I am 67 years old (and also a Carol!), and I really like many of the Kiehl's products I've used. I use the wrinkle cream every other night, and on the alternate night I use a prescription retinol cream, which I highly recommend to you. I also recommend chemical peels from an esthetician several times a year.Apr 11, 2013
carrie e:I've been using this since December and haven't seen an increase in clogged pores. It definitely hasn't given me zits. This is definitely the most effective anti aging product by kiehls.Feb 28, 2013
Chyna H:Thank you Allison. It is a real challenge to find products for the face and body that do not contain it. I have a few of Kiehl's now but was hoping for something new. Thanks again!Jan 3, 2013
Stella M:Hi Rhanda C, No, I do not see retinol or pro-retinol on the ingredients list which can be found underneath the jar. There is cetyl-alcohol and dimethicone though.Apr 9, 2013
