Kiehl's Flagship Britomart Boutique

Kiehls053 With the doors having only recently opened on the Kiehl’s flagship store down in Auckland’s Britomart precinct, Remix popped in for a skincare consultation with store manager Jay Williams to see what all the fuss is about. And as our online editor Steven Fernandez discovered, having good skin doesn’t have to be a mission… Kiehl’s launched in New Zealand in 2010 at Smith & Caughey’s Queen Street and since then has grown with the opening of counters in Smith & Caughey’s Newmarket, Ballantynes in Christchurch and Kirkcaldie & Stains in Wellington. Founded in 1851 on New York City’s Lower East Side, Kiehl’s is loved globally for its character-filled 160-year history and its range of efficacious skin and haircare products, including a men-specific collection. So naturally the Kiehl’s Kiwi flagship boutique maintains the aesthetic and feel of the brand’s New York heritage. Exposed brick walls, vibrant galleries of historic images and neon artwork all pay homage to Kiehl’s rich history. Also present in the new store is the extensive experience and personable approach of Kiehl’s staff. Store manager Jay Williams sat down with Steven Fernandez in a standard skin consultation to talk through a new skincare regime that is both effective and efficient.
