Kiehl’s Product Junkie Shopping in a Kiehl’s store is one of my favorite things to do.

I started using Kiehl’s products about 2 years ago when a friend who started breaking out a lot, cleared up his acne by using the Blue Herbal Acne Cleanser Treatment.

Initially I was a bit skeptical because I didn’t want to jump into a collaboration with a brand I was unfamiliar with, and then turn out not liking the product (especially being a curly girl!)
