When I have blemishes, using this feels like it's completely sterilizing my face.
ConsIt stings a bit when applied, but you get used to it quickly. Also, it seems to tighten the pores, so when I apply an emulsion afterwards, it pills slightly. That's why it's best to use it with its dedicated line emulsion. These two products together have an incredible effect - it's almost impossible for troubled skin and acne to appear on your face. Unfortunately, the dedicated emulsion has been discontinued.

ConsIt stings during application, and if not applied properly, the emulsion can pill, leaving white residue on the skin

It's particularly effective on the T-zone and great for summer use.
ConsIt can be a bit harsh on the U-zone, excluding the T-zone. I recommend applying it sparingly with a cotton pad, focusing only on specific areas.

It definitely reduced the oiliness significantly!
ConsThe alcohol scent is overwhelming. While cleansing, I experienced a painful combination of stinging sensation and unpleasant smell. On top of that, if you don't immediately follow up with an emulsion or essence, it really emphasizes dead skin cells.

(I've been using Blue Herbal for over 6 years, though not consistently now) (Currently, I don't have any skin texture issues) (Though it's called an emulsion, I used it like a toner) When I first encountered this product, I was a middle schooler with dry skin who was just starting to get blemishes on my forehead. While my memory is a bit hazy, it was quite effective for those small bumps. Due to my dry skin, I didn't apply it all over my face, but focused on areas like the hairline, between the eyebrows, and forehead, mainly as part of my nighttime routine. Being dry-skinned, if I applied this in the morning before sunscreen, it would cause pilling. Nevertheless, I used it consistently, and now I don't have any texture issues. While this product certainly helped, I also think those blemishes might have been hormone-related during my growth phase, and have naturally subsided now that I'm older. I'll explain below why this product still has a place on my vanity.
ConsThere's not really anything to complain about. Since it's designed to control oil, if you have dry skin and apply it all over your face, you might experience a stinging sensation and extreme dryness, as if your skin is cracking! I even recommended this to my friend with oily skin, but they found it too drying and stopped using it.
TipEven though I don't have blemishes now, about once a month I might get a pimple or two around my hairline (where sebum production is high). When that happens, instead of my usual skincare routine, I soak a cotton pad with this product, place it on the blemish before bed, let it absorb, and by morning the pimple has usually subsided significantly! Since I have dry skin, I make sure to apply a bit of emulsion to my cheeks, avoiding the areas where I've used the Blue Herbal.

It feels refreshing when applied and really eliminates any oiliness. The only issue is that it leaves your skin feeling too dry afterwards.
ConsFirst off, it's extremely drying, so you absolutely need to follow up with a good moisturizer after using it. Also, I didn't notice any direct improvement in my blemishes while using it. And it stings - it's kind of like applying rubbing alcohol from the pharmacy to your face.
TipNot recommended for daily use

The oil control was truly impressive. That's it!
ConsLet's start with the positives - there's a cooling effect, but to be honest, it's too stinging and even a bit painful. While the coolness seemed to calm redness initially, the stinging sensation made my skin flush again. After application, the unique formula dries and disappears, leaving behind that signature alcohol feel of Kiehl's products. Is this typical of American cosmetics? Personally, while intriguing, I found it too harsh and don't think it's good for the skin - not a fan. Due to this unusual texture, it's awkward to apply sunscreen over it during the day. At night, it leaves my skin feeling tight, requiring extra hydration, which is counterproductive. In conclusion, this ended up being a product I rarely reached for.
TipI'd only recommend this for extremely oily skin types (those with excess oil, not lack of hydration) who aren't sensitive and have thick, resilient skin. For everyone else, it's probably not worth trying.

The product has a water-like consistency that provides excellent hydration.
ConsBe cautious when using if you have acne or razor cuts, as it may contain alcohol which can cause a tingling sensation.

ConsHowever, it's quite potent, so I'd recommend it for those with very oily skin. If you have combination skin, it might cause a tingling sensation.
