Kiehl’s Rewards Points Accrual
- Only Members are eligible to accrue reward points in the Program by availing themselves of the means of accrual recognized under the Program (“Kiehl’s Rewards Points”).

- L’Oreal expressly reserves the right to establish additional means of accruing Kiehl’s Rewards Points, to delete any or all of the means currently recognized, or to exclude specific types of transactions from the accumulation of Kiehl’s Rewards Points.
- The amount of Kiehl’s Rewards Points accrued shall be determined by the cash value paid by the Member. The cash value is the amount, in Singapore Dollars, stated in the receipts/invoices issued by the Appointed Channel at the point of purchase of the Kiehl’s products or services by the Member. Further details on the accrual of Kiehl’s Rewards Points, Membership Tiers, validity date(s) of Kiehl’s Rewards Points, and Redemptions are set out at the “Kiehl’s Rewards Frequently Asked Questions” available at (“FAQ”). In the event of any inconsistency between these Terms and Conditions and the FAQ, these Terms and Conditions shall prevail to the extent of such inconsistency.
- If L’Oreal, or any of the Appointed Channel(s), improperly denies a Member an accrual or benefit, liability will be limited to the equivalent of that accrual or benefit.
- Only the Member purchasing Kiehl’s products or services from the Appointed Channel(s) will receive Kiehl’s Rewards Points for those Kiehl’s products or services credited to his or her Account.
- L’Oreal reserves the right to make bonus points and promotional offers selectively available to certain Members at any time, based on purchasing activity, geographic locations, program participation, or other factors determined at L’Oreal’s sole discretion.
- L’Oreal will, in most cases, credit its Members' Accounts with accrued Kiehl’s Rewards Points. However, each Member shall have the responsibility to ensure that his or her Kiehl’s Rewards Points are properly credited. Where a Member contends that Kiehl’s Rewards Points have been earned but not credited, or in cases where L’Oreal deems verification is required, L’Oreal reserves the right to require proof of accrual from the Member, including but not limited to copies of receipts or similar documentation verifying any transaction claimed to have been performed. Any claims for Kiehl’s Rewards Points by the Member and proof of accrual must be received by L’Oreal within twelve (12) months after the date such Rewards Points were claimed to be earned.
Rewards Points Expiration
- Kiehl’s Rewards Points accrued in a Member's Account shall be maintained in the Account until they are redeemed for an award or until they expire, whichever occurs first.
- Kiehl’s Rewards Points will expire on each anniversary of the Date of Registration (“Expiration Date”). Expiring points that are not redeemed by the Expiration Date are void and deleted from the Member’s Account. Accounts in which Kiehl’s Rewards Point accrual ceases for a full 2-year period are designated as dormant and L’Oreal reserves the right to close the Account after the expiration of any remaining Kiehl’s Rewards Points.
- In cases where Kiehl’s Rewards Points are, for any reason, removed from an Account, as for the redemption of awards, and later returned, the return of the Rewards Points to the Account shall not count as Account Activity
Other Benefits

Award Redemption
- The awards available to be redeemed and the amount of Kiehl’s Rewards Points necessary to redeem each award will be set by L’Oreal and published to the Members. L’Oreal shall establish the process for award redemption (“Redemption”, “Redeem” or “Redeemed”), but Redemption shall basically mean the exchange of Kiehl’s Rewards Points in a Member's Account for a specified award (“Award”).
- Kiehl’s Rewards Points Redeemed when purchasing a non-refundable good or service will not be returned in case of cancellation or return.
- Kiehl’s Rewards Points earned in two or more different Members’ Accounts may not be combined to Redeem any Award.
- The award structure is subject to modification, cancellation or limitation at L’Oreal’s sole discretion, with or without notice. The amount of Kiehl’s Rewards Points required to Redeem any award may be substantially increased, any Award may be withdrawn, and restrictions on any Award or its Redemption may be imposed at any time. The accumulation of Kiehl’s Rewards Points does not entitle Members to any vested rights with respect to any Awards or the Program. Awards shall be valid only on Kiehl’s products and/or services by L’Oreal and/or the Appointed Channels. Appointed Channels will be displayed on the Website and the Redemption process will show if Kiehl’s Rewards Points are able to be Redeemed or accrued. L’Oreal shall not be held liable for any changes that result in the cancellation of an Appointed Channel from the Program.
- L’Oreal shall not be liable or responsible in any manner for any tax consequences which may result from a Member's participation in the Program. Each Member is solely responsible for the payment of all taxes payable and benefits acquired as a result of such Member's participation in the Program and earning, conversion, holding and/or use of Kiehl’s Rewards Points and for all applicable filing and reporting obligations. Members should consult with their tax advisors regarding the accumulation, conversion and use of the Kiehl’s Rewards Points.
- Appointed Channel(s) may be added to or removed from the Program at L’Oreal’s discretion, at any time with or without notice. In the event that a Appointed Channel is removed from the Program, the Member will still retain any Kiehl’s Rewards Points remaining in the Member's Account that were earned through that Appointed Channel.
