If you need an excuse to go shopping, check out the new stand-alone Kiehl’s store at fashion’s newest destination – Atrium on Takutai, at Auckland’s Britomart. Get your New York apothecary fix in the brand-new, (the first of its kind in NZ) Big Apple-esque surroundings. Kiehl’s is known for firsts but is also steeped in history; expect to see the Harley motorbike and Mr Bones skeleton (present in every Kiehl’s store), and hard-working efficacious creams and lotions for the entire family including your pets.

Pick up our must-have body cream, Creme de Corps, $59 in time for the big chill.
