I’m taking part in the Kiehl’s #ChangeYourSkin 28 Day Challenge and I’m not doing it alone!
Since moving to Joburg, my skin has gone from being beautifully hydrated (thanks to Durban’s warmer weather), to dry and depressed thanks to the cold, dry weather in Jozi. I need a change, so I am keen to get started.
I’ve been asked to invite FIVE fabulous StyleScoop readers to join me on this challenge. If you want to change your skin and have been looking to try out Kiehl’s products, then read on to find out how you can be one of my fab five!
The Challenge
To change your skin in 28 days!
How
Each of my five readers will receive 2 full sized Kiehl’s products that will help you change your skin. You’ll get to try out the iconic Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Concentrate (R615) as well as Kiehl’s Dermatologist Solutions Powerful Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate (R645).
The idea is to try out these two products for 28 days and document your changes every week for the duration of the challenge.
The challenge starts on the 28th July 2014.
I’ll be posting weekly updates sharing my experience and that of my five readers on my blog. So, if you’re one of my five Challenge buddies, you’ll be expected to send me an email with your weekly skin updates. I don’t expect long essays, just a short description of how your skin feels that week and any changes you’ve noticed etc. Before and after pics would also be great!
You’ll also be expected to share your experiences on your various social media channels (Blogs, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc). You’ll need to tag @KiehlsSA and include the hashtag #changeyourskin so that Kiehl’s can see and share your thoughts.
Pick Me! Pick Me!
Are you up for the challenge? If so, here’s what you need to do;
- First, please make sure you are able to commit to the above!

I’m 30 years old, my skin concerns are blemishes and fine lines around the eyes. I’d like to simplify my skincare routine and I’d like to find products that work. I’d share on Twitter and my blog.
I’m 45 years old and will be 46 in August, I so would love to have my skin look and feel younger, this winter seems to have taken its toll and I feel like a shrivelled prune.
I am 40years young. My skin concerns is that my skin is always dry, dark circles under my eyes and uneven tone. I would like to change my skin where I can give it a break, from all the foundation and concealer. Chance to be confident again that my skin can be beautiful again, and can leave my home from wearing any make up. My current skincare routine is the usual cleansing with cold water and soap. Thank you.mbenrkia@fnb.co.za

My main concerns with my skin is it’s always dry as I work in air conditioning I love todo my makeup so I need a perfect hydrated face to work on .Also for them lazy days where u don’t want to wear makeup a heathy looking skin is beautiful by itself . At the moment I use a bit of this and a bit of that !!!

I will be 40 in a weeks time and have noticed a definite change in my skin and winter does not help either!
My skin is drier, uneven, has skin pigmentation and visible fine lines appearing!!

I’m a 25 year old Capetonian female, who relocated to Jozi about a year ago. My main skin concerns are oily t section and the dryish blemishes around my lip area. I currently make use of daily exfoliator as well as a toner and day moisturizer. I would really like to cure the blemishes once and for all as well as minimize the pores. Perhaps Kiehl’s is the solution my skins been waiting for.
I may be contacted on saadiqah0@gmail.com
I’m 29 and suffer from dry skin and redness. I have also started seeing lines around my eyes eek! My skin care routine is pretty much absent to be honest. I do have a face wash and toner, but very seldom use them. I moisturize only after I swim 3 times a week. (I know – I’m terrible!) I would like something quick and easy, that will give me maximum results for minimal effort and time.
Hi Dimi. I’m Camilla, I am 27 years old. My main concern is to look after my skin now so that it ages gracefully. I have regular skin, it’s not often oily. It is, however, a little dehydrated at the moment being winter and living in JHB.
I am 24 years of age, but I have been working 12-15 hour shifts in the hospitality field for the last 10 years. My eyes are permanently marked with dark circles, and my skin on my neck is very dark as well. Id like to be able to look healthy and young, instead of 7 years older then I am… I also cant seem use any skin products, as everything makes my skin oily? And I cant put anything on my skin, as it causes me to sweat for no reason?
I’m a 33 mom of twins working long hours in IT. In winter, I struggle with dry, dehydrated skin- the only benefit being that I dont have as many breakouts as during the warmer months. I am concerned about pores and fine lines… I still cant believe that Im at the age where anti-ageing lotions and potions are a non-negiotable. I would love to try the Kiehls challenge as my combination skin is really due some TLC. My current regime is the simple 3-step by Clinque.

Hi, I’m Jane, I’m 28 years old and live in Durban. At the moment winter in Durbs has been wrecking my skin and I’m currently trying to moisturize the heck out of it. I battle aside from dehydration with dark circles some pigmentation (from the sun) and broken capillaries caused by allergies.
I blog, tweet and would Instagram progress throughout the challenge and would love to take part as I would love to see a turn around in my skin.
I am 21 years old – but my skin sometimes feels like that of a 30 year old smoker, (And no, I don’t smoke) I have combination skin that is blemish prone – I often get random breakouts!. I am bothered by my pores and wish that I could shrink them. Not to mention the blackheads, the dry flaky forehead and the irritated redness that comes with my skin problems. Honestly, I never leave the house without some sort of coverage! I am confident in me – but it would be great to regain the confidence in my skin!
I am 26. My skin is prone to random blemishes and dry patches especially in winter. My skin concerns are dryness, fine lines and blemishes. My skin routine is cleanse, tone, moisturize with the odd scrub now and then.
Hello 🙂 I am 26 years old and have definitely noticed changes in my skin as I am about to hit the dirty 30’s! I would love to sample this product, as I am looking for something that can see me through and give me some renewed confidence and flair. I am Asian so it would be interesting to see how this product would suit my skin type. I would love to be a part of this, if you will have me ofcourse 🙂 Enjoy London! xoxo Naureen
my name is Gugu Xaba, im 29 years old, I v been cleansing ,toning and moisturising for the past 2years religiously,however im bothered by the lines in my forehead and around my chicks when I smile,I cant be ageing already, I would like to take part in the challenge for smoother and radiant glowing skin, hence I dont wear makeup.
I would love to be a candidate for this 28 day challenge as I have never used Kiehl’s products before but have always been intrigued by the brand. I am 23 years old, of Indian origin thus suffer from dark under eye circles and some uneven skin. My daily skin routine consists of primarily natural products and Clarins. I have recently become hooked on Rosehip oil and have been using facial oils for many years. I am interested in adding premature ageing and brightening products to my skincare regimen as I spend many long nights in air conditioned rooms (I am a full time masters student) and hardly ever receive a proper full nights sleep as a result of this. I am sure these trusted products would work wonders on my skin!
I am a zesty 33 year old overworked mom, budding entrepreneur, student and pet owner who is just starting to see the first signs of ageing.darn! I have always battled with uneven skin tone and a rough texture which was aggravated by my pregnancy . Add to my woes are blemishes which are aggravated by stress and hormones. I have spent thousands of rands in the quest to have the prefect skin which I was blessed with in my teens but these sort of miracles do not happen in the real world. I am looking for a powerful yet natural skincare range to pamper,treat and give me a glow that would make J’Lo envious. In short, I want to feel comfortable in my own skin and not have to cover up under a mask of make-up. I have heard rave reviews about Kiehls and the fact that my icon Katrina Kaif is an avid user of this iconic range makes me want to try this even more! I am an avid social network lass and I am committed to let like-minded women out there that Kiehls could be the answer to their skincare woes. Perhaps I can even get a skin makeover myself which I believe has the power of boosting ones confidence levels 100%.
Hey Dimi! My name is Luzanne, I am 31 years old. I have dehydrated, combination skin and it is also quite congested at the moment. My main skin concern is aging as well as the little bumps on my forehead (congestion). I have crows feet around my eye area, as well as wrinkles on my forehead. During this Winter my skin has also become very dehydrated.
I currently have a blog called Pink Peonies (www.pinkpeonies.co.za) – I also haveTwitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts for my blog. I am committed to giving you feedback on a regular basis whilst using the Kiehl’s products.

Hi! I’m 27 years old and with the icy cold this winter my fair and sensitive skin has suffered severely. My skin is prone to breakouts ( especially caused by a stressful city living) and saturating it with the moisture it craves has had some serious side effects. I would love to join the Kiehls challenge to see if there are products out there that really make a difference. Contatct me at archisalz@gmail.com
