NYC: At Kiehl's. Just Want to Thank...

...that really nice lady at Kiehl's. I went in yesterday evening to restock on the French Rosewater, a product I love very much, especially during the summer months. There are two Kiehl's shops in Manhattan, and I am lucky to live right near the flagship location on the corner of 13th Street and 3rd Avenue.

I checked in the "body" section where they usually keep it...but the rosewater wasn't there!! To my dismay it turned out that the product was discounted in the US :/
"But wait here," the woman told me. "I'll get you some samples in the back!"

I waited for less than a minute, and she came back out with a bag filled to the top with many and I mean MANY MANY samples of the French Rosewater! Love!
While I was there I also picked up a few other products I needed, including this Cucumber Toner (it's hard to find a good alcohol-free toner!) pictured above...and some Tinted Moisturizer for my trip to San Francisco next week. My routine is bare bones. The moisturizer and maybe a bit of liner is all that's needed. And the rosewater of course. It feels so nice to splash it over your skin on hot days, or right when you get out of the shower. And then you will smell pretty too :)

I checked online and it looks like you can order the rosewater off their online shop...just might have to do that...though I wish they would keep it in stock, especially since it is the flagship shop!
