Over the years, I have interviewed some ofthe aesthetican’smost famous clients, such asKim KardashianandKate Winslet, though.
She makes house calls around the world to ensure her celebrity clients have moments of self-care and relaxation.
Because of this, they’re always asking her for product recommendations for their trips.

Czech admits she’s created The Kit “more [out of] practicality than anything else.”
Now, she can simply give her clients this universally effective collection of elegant glass bottles.
The journey to developing it has not been as straightforward, though.

From the start, she knew exactly the kind of products she wanted to be part of it.
“Once he saw my choices, he says, ‘You know what are you doing?
You are building a handmade Rolls Royce,'” Czech recalls.

Czech wouldn’t compromise for any other.

“To me, I just grew up with it.
That’s what I knew from my grandma, from my mom.”

Personally, The Toner is my favorite part of The Kit.
The lightweight-yet-luxurious Soothing Serum is included in The Kit to keep the peace.
They’re bolstered by squalane and four anti-inflammatory oils: hemp, ashwagandha,marula, and sunflower seed.
It’s incredibly silky without any stickiness or stinging.
Alongside the serum duo, The Kit also features a pair of moisturizers.
The Cream is the lighter option, especially for those in steamier climates.
(I’ll be using it 365 days a year no matter where I am, though.)
However, it doesn’t skimp on nourishing ingredients.
It’s richin ceramidesand peptides, which restore moisture levels andplump skin.
Good ol’hyaluronic acidand healingvitamin Ealso made the list.
In fact, both are in most of the products.
The aforementioned highly favored shea butter powers The Balm alongside toning algae extracts and balancing raspberry seed oil.
It also helps seal in all the amazing hydration from prior steps in the Joanna Czech Skincare regimen.
The Balm is far from greasy, in my experience.
It becomes one with your skin as you melt it in with your hands.
I can’t wait to coat my skin with it on the coldest, driest day this winter.
It’s really like a cashmere blanket for your skin.
“Because oil dissolves oil.”
Although The Kit doesn’t include a cleanser, The Cleansing Wipes make an appearance.
“I don’t like using face wipes as a cleanser,” Czech shares.
“Face wipes are not a replacement for cleanser this is to be practical.”
Last but not least, Czech also added a sheet mask to the mix.
