Kiehl’s has just launched a new product line featuring their first ingredients obtained through fair trade. Welcome Kiehl’s Superbly Restorative Body Lotion and Superbly Restorative Dry Oil.
Kiehl’s has dedicated itself to giving back to the global community. The best way to do that is to obtain ingredients through fair trade and use organic ingredients like 100% certified organic Argan Oil.
So what’s Argan Oil?
Take a little bit of the Argan Forest of Southern Morocco to your home. Considered a treasure, Argan Oil is pressed from the nut of the Argan Tree’s fruit. Berber women in Morocco’s Atlas Mountain region use the oil in beauty and culinary preparations, the natural fatty acids in the oil provide essential nourishment. On top of that, the oil has anti-aging properties, so it’s an all around winner.
Superbly Restorative Products:
-Superbly Restorative Body Lotion is a hydrating, antioxidant moisturizer that improves the skin’s tone and resilience. (On-counter in April)
-Superbly Restorative Dry Oil is a multi-purpose formula to be used on both skin and hair, which improves the appearance of skin tone, and helps to smooth split ends and add a healthy sheen to hair. (On-counter in April)
-Superbly Restorative Skin Salve is a multi-purpose concentrated formula for intensive skin and hair relief and maintenance, and can be used for soothing everything from chapped noses, rough elbows and knees, sore muscles, and hair fly-aways. (On-counter in June.)
Fair Trade? Some of the basic ideas of Fair Trade:
- Creating opportunities for economically disadvantaged producers
- Transparency and accountability
- Capacity building
- Payment of a fair price
- Gender Equality
- Safe working conditions
- Environmental protection
I may pick some of this up, I def want to reward Kiehl’s good behavior. If there is a strong turnout, Kiehl’s will continue to make good deals for the ingredient suppliers and we’ll all benefit from such a good thing.

It’s great to see the Cosmetics Industry creating Fair Trade products. The early adopters will be the winners by synergysing their brand with fair trade values - with the World going Eco-Crazy. They will become the top brands - so expect the biggest brands in cosmetics following suit this year.
