Pros
It effectively controls sebum, preventing excessive oiliness and blemishes. However, I will provide more details on the downsides below.
Cons
It's too drying, which seems to exacerbate acne. Acne-prone skin needs good hydration, but this product leaves the face feeling parched. It's especially problematic in the winter. It may be okay to use as a spot treatment on small, isolated blemishes, but it has many irritating ingredients, so I don't recommend it for sensitive, acne-prone skin.

Pros
I've been using it for 12 years. On the days I can't use it, I get acne breakouts, which shows how effective it is. I have oily skin, but it helps control it well. I use this as the first step, followed by a soothing and moisturizing toner.
Cons
Due to the alcohol-like ingredients, you need to pay attention to moisturizing your skin.
Tip
While everyone may have their own method, be sure to wipe it off with a cotton pad.

Pros
I highly recommend this product to those with oily and combination skin! I have a skin type that is neither oily nor dry, and I used to have an oily residue after applying toner and lotion and waking up in the morning. But with this product, my skin feels soft and supple even after waking up. It also seems to be effective in managing sebum production. The scent of this product alone gives the impression that it can almost eliminate excess sebum. There is a slight alcohol-like smell, but it seems to be effective for skin with high sebum production and acne-prone skin.
Cons
I've been using this product for a week, and since I bought it specifically to manage my sebum, I've only been using this product without any other products. After a week of use, my face started to feel dry and cracked. So I'm going to start using other products as well to add some moisture. While it is true that this product helps with sebum and acne, I haven't noticed any dramatic changes yet.

Pros
The peel really does help to control it. When acne is about to flare up, applying it is a direct hit.
Cons
If you apply essence or lotion after using it, it's a disaster. You should let it absorb a bit before applying.
Tip
It's best to apply it only before bedtime.

Pros
After using it, I definitely feel like my sebum production has decreased, and with the ethanol content, I no longer worry about mites.
Cons
After using this product, I always feel like the lotion is too heavy and uncomfortable, and it feels like the moisture in my skin is being stripped away.

Pros
It helps alleviate blemishes by effectively controlling sebum.
Cons
When applying the next product, it may not absorb well and feel like a peeling agent. You should be cautious when using the next product, such as using the same product line.

Pros
-It feels refreshing when applied. -There were many products that claimed to help control sebum, but I didn't feel much effect from them. While you may not notice a big difference after using it just once or twice, if you continue using it, you'll see that it effectively controls sebum. I used to have excessive sebum production, especially in the summer, to the point where I felt like a rich oil baron. But I thought, 'Well, it's summer, so it's worth it.' At first, I didn't feel like it was working much, and it was too thick, so I thought I had just bought trash that wasn't compatible with other products. But once I got the hang of using it, I could really feel the difference compared to the sebum I normally produce in the summer. Oily-skinned folks, start using this as soon as possible to manage your pores and prevent them from getting enlarged! I wish I had known about this earlier. When I woke up in the morning, my face would be drenched in oil, but these days, just washing with water in the morning is enough to keep my sebum under control. -It's effective for blemishes. I used to get those little acne bumps like millet grains once a month, but when that happens, if I wash my face diligently and use this product thoroughly, they go away without any trouble.
Cons
-This product contains alcohol components. I'm not incompatible with alcohol, but I don't prefer it, and as a result, I've been using only alcohol-free products. But when I use this product, it feels like drinking liquor, so it makes me feel irritated. There may also be eye irritation, but now that I've seen the effects and used it, I'm praising the refreshing feeling of the irritation. -The compatibility is poor. When I purchased it, the sales staff said that it contains a lot of alcohol, so if I apply other products, it will be very difficult. This is the same as other reviews. However, if you master the usage method, it's a treasure!!
Tip
If you're tired of being fooled by oil-controlling cosmetics and want to use products that actually work, I have a recommendation for you. I'll show you how to overcome the problem of the product not absorbing well. After cleansing, I take an appropriate amount of this product on a cotton pad and gently wipe my face. Instead of immediately discarding the used cotton pad, I tear off the clean part (you should use cotton pads in layers). Then, I apply a non-alcohol toner on the clean part of the cotton pad and wipe my face. You can do this multiple times, like a 7-skin method. It's okay if the product doesn't get fully absorbed at this stage - that's intentional. The trick is to gradually mix this product with other toners to avoid pilling. But before applying the next cream, make sure all the previously applied toners are fully absorbed. I then use a very lightweight gel cream, like the Innisfree Artichoke Layering Cream Intensive, which gives a comfortable, non-occlusive finish that I love. After fully absorbing that, I apply a gel-type sunscreen, gently patting it on rather than rubbing, to prevent pilling. I use the Biore blue bottle sunscreen. Doing this allows me to maintain the right oil balance even in the height of summer!

Pros
This product is perfect for me as my skin is full of sebum. Being slightly acidic, it helps dissolve the sebum.
Cons
I feel my skin is quite tight and it stings a lot when it gets in my eyes.

Pros
It controls sebum better than any other product, even just a little bit.
Cons
It controls sebum too well, making my skin feel a bit tight. It feels like it's absorbing all the moisture too.

Pros
During my high school days, I struggled with T-zone acne and sebum. That's when I discovered Kiehl's Blue Herbal Toner. It tackles acne, sebum, and dead skin cells all at once.
Cons
While it may seem inexpensive, it is actually quite pricey. However, I am satisfied as it lasts a long time.
Tip
Do not apply it all over your face. For those with oily, acne-prone skin on the cheeks, nose, and forehead, do not recklessly use it all over your face. (It can lead to a total disaster due to the dryness it causes) I recommend gently wiping it on the forehead and nose area using a cotton pad. I suggest using it only once a day, after your evening shower. It does not seem to be the type of product where using more will yield better results.
