Product details

Web ID: 3847737
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.

  • Product Features

    • 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

Blue Astringent Herbal Lotion

I like how the Blue Astringent Herbal Lotion makes my skin feel after shaving. Really clean and relaxed. Been using it for a few years, plan on many more.

Love Blue Astringent

I've been using this product for decades. It works so well. I never understood why it had been discontinued but I'm glad that L'Oreal came to their senses and listened to their customers.

Happy Blue Astringent Is Back!

I am happy to see that Blue Astringent Herbal Lotion is back! I have been using it since the early 80s and missed it when it was recently unavailable.
