Formulated in 1964, Blue Astringent Herbal Lotion is a foundational Kiehl's product. The multipurpose facial astringent was created specifically with oily skin in mind. Camphor, menthol, and sodium PCA provide a cooling and soothing effect. A unique facial toner for use on oily-prone areas.
Key ingredients include:
Camphor (naturally derived from an eastern evergreen tree; can give a cooling effect to skin; effective treatment for oily skin)
Menthol (natural cooling agent, containing 50% peppermint or other mint oils, or made synthetically by hydrogenation of thymol; used in skin care to give a cooling effect to skin)
Sodium PCA (naturally occurring humectant; partly responsible for skin's moisture-binding capacity; derived from amino acids; highly water absorbing; increases skin's softness when added to products)
How to use:
Moisten a sterile cotton pad with facial toner and apply to skin in areas where needed, avoiding the immediate eye area
Before applying, we recommend patch-testing a small amount of any cosmetic product on the inside skin of the wrist area to ascertain its compatibility with your skin
Use with Blue Herbal Gel Cleanser for best results
