Jeff Koons and the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children (ICMEC) to help raise awareness and funds for missing children.

 

In keeping with their longstanding commitment to children, Kiehl’s, Jeff Koons and ICMEC have partnered as we’ve never before:  Jeff is creating TWO original pieces of art with Kiehl’s – 1.) a Limited Edition Kiehl’s x Jeff Koons collectible tin for customers, and 2.) a public art installation in New York for all!

Beginning May 2, Kiehl’s will donate 100% of net profits from the sales of any product in our Midnight Recovery Collection, up to $100,000, to benefit ICMEC. Any customer who purchases any of the three items in the range will be able to take home the collectible tin, their own work of art from one of the foremost internationally recognized American contemporary artists.

The Midnight Recovery Collection is:

 

Kiehl’s will then further bring this program to life with the unveiling of an original Jeff Koons public art installation, in New York, the first week of May. (Location is under wraps for now!) With its incredible NYC backdrop, the installation will represent Kiehl’s commitment to community spirit and the greater good – right in our hometown.
