Beyond his sturdy Twitter feed and equally robust beard, we’re fans of Kiehl’s President, Chris Salgardo’s overall vibe. Known for providing solid, shelf space-worthy grooming products that both men and women can appreciate (or hoard,) Kiehl’s has been making its mark for over a century. This month, we’re drooling over Kiehl’s new calendula-based face wash, a creamy gel cleanser formulated with soothing calendula flower extract. Deluxe-size sample of Kiehl’s new cleanser and their copper-based wrinkle-reducing cream are included with every Pressed Juicery cleanse order online beginning this month until supplies last – the perfect combo of inner and outer cleansing!
To celebrate, we asked Chris to share a few of his other healthy faves. Find out what keeps him tweeting, man-grooming and summer traveling in style. Read Chris’ picks, then order your very own post-Fourth-of-July-BBQ-overload 3-Day Juice Cleanse to share in all of the Kiehl’s summer cleansing merriment…
