One hundred and sixty years ago Kiehl’s was founded as an old-world apothecary in New York’s East Village. Natural ingredients have been an important part of their skin and hair care formulas since 1851. They are actively engaged in three charitable initiatives both locally and globally; HIV/AIDS education, prevention, and research; protecting and nurturing the environment; and children’s well-being. Initiatives which we at The Lenox share and embrace.

Going green requires original thinking and The Lenox was blazing eco-trails back in the eighties, long before it became trendy. As a hotel, as a neighbor and as a corporate citizen, The Lenox is recognized as a global sustainability leader and pioneer of ecotourism – an honor we tirelessly strive to maintain and improve upon by researching new ways to reduce our impact on the environment. This philosophy is in line with our decision to introduce Kiehl’s at The Lenox.

For many decades they have sourced proven and effective botanical extracts from all parts of the world and are committed to choosing ingredients that are selected for their true benefits to the skin and hair, not for their esthetics. They utilize simple, efficient and recyclable packaging so that they can concentrate their efforts and costs on the substance and quality of the product.
