Kiehl's S2273400 Ultra Facial Cream SPF 30 Moisturizer with Squalane
Product description
Broad-spectrum SPF 30 and daily hydration come together in a lightweight face cream, making it easier to include sun protection in your morning skincare routine. Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream is formulated for all skin types and has a non-greasy texture that absorbs quickly, leaving skin feeling soft and looking smooth.
With squalane, fountain plant and glacial glycoprotein, it combines moisturizing ingredients with UVA and UVB protection in one daily step.
Usage tips
Apply the cream to clean skin as the last step in your skincare routine, 15 minutes before sun exposure. Use it generously and reapply at least every two hours. This routine helps make SPF part of everyday face care, whether you are getting ready for the day or adding sun protection after your usual moisturizing steps.
The lightweight, non-greasy formula is designed for normal, dry, oily and sensitive skin. Fountain plant helps boost hydration and support the skin’s moisture barrier, while glacial glycoprotein helps moisturize dry skin in cold temperatures. The manufacturer also describes the formula as quick-absorbing, a practical quality for a daily face cream that pairs hydration with sunscreen.
Why it’s worth it
Choosing a moisturizer with SPF offers a different approach from layering a separate daily moisturizer and sunscreen: this cream combines both functions in one face-care product. SPF 30 provides broad-spectrum protection, while the moisturizing formula helps keep skin hydrated throughout the day. Its soft, lightweight feel is intended to smooth the appearance of skin without a greasy finish.
Buyers often praise its hydration, light feel and quick absorption, and some say it leaves their skin looking smooth and glowing. Feedback about the eye area is mixed, with some customers reporting irritation. These are individual experiences, alongside the product’s stated suitability for all skin types.
The essentials
This is a daily facial moisturizer with broad-spectrum SPF 30, formulated with squalane, fountain plant and glacial glycoprotein. It is designed to provide 24-hour hydration and sunscreen protection, with a lightweight, non-greasy texture. Apply it as the last step in your skincare routine and follow the label’s sun-protection directions, including reapplication at least every two hours.
The updated packaging uses 40% less plastic than the original packaging. That detail may matter to shoppers considering both the daily formula and its packaging when choosing a face moisturizer.
Buying verdict
Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream suits a daily routine built around comfortable hydration and broad-spectrum sun protection in one product. It’s a great fit if you want a lightweight face cream for all skin types that brings SPF 30 into the moisturizing step, with clear application guidance for everyday sun exposure.
