Kiehl's Clearly Corrective Clarity Activating Emulsion (100ml)
Deliver targeted brightening and sustained hydration in one step by combining activated vitamin C, niacinamide, licorice root extract, and carnosine in a fast-absorbing emulsion designed to correct dullness and even out skin tone.
This lightweight formula bridges the gap between treatment serums and daily moisturizers, depositing potent actives directly into the upper skin layers while maintaining moisture balance without heavy or occlusive feels.
How the Active Ingredients Work Together
Activated vitamin C and niacinamide work synergistically to visibly reduce the appearance of post-acne marks and fade uneven pigmentation. Licorice root extract supports a clearer, more uniform complexion, while carnosine helps neutralize oxidative stress that contributes to premature dullness. Because these ingredients are suspended in an emulsion rather than a dense cream, the product avoids pore-clogging buildup and layers seamlessly under sun protection or makeup.
Apply a thin layer to clean skin every morning and evening. Allow the emulsion to absorb fully before adding SPF or foundation to prevent pilling. The 100ml container supplies enough volume for consistent twice-daily use over several months, providing a cost-effective, single-step solution for routines focused on clarity and radiance.
