Used cosmetically, Witch Hazel Distillate can cleanse, regulate the skin’s oil production, eliminate excess sebum, nourish, tighten, tone, soothe, and reduce the chances of future blemish outbreaks. It reduces swelling, calms irritation, minimizes the look of enlarged pores, and promote the skin’s radiance.
Used medicinally, Witch Hazel Distillate soothes insect bites and stings as well as cuts, sores, swelling, and bruises. It gently facilitates the healing of all skin types, including types that are acne-prone, blistered, or cracked.
Witch Hazel is best known for its ability to soothe irritation on skin that has been recently shaved, bitten, or sunburned. It protects the skin against environmental contaminants, helps prevent skin damage, and generally supports skin health.
Suggested Use
Witch hazel is traditionally used as a toner or astringent for oily or troubled skin, although the distillate can be mixed in with other products—we recommend using it at 10%-100%.
The tannins in witch hazel are often around 8-12%, meaning it has a fair share of antioxidants. It can help calm and smooth skin, so in addition to extra oil it may be appropriate for other skin irritations or to help under-eye puffiness caused by water retention.
We would consider adding witch hazel distillate to gels, serums, shaving creams, toners, and cleansers. It can be found in some of our (and our customers) favorite creams, lotions, and gels
How to use Witch Hazel
Witch hazel water can be used as is or diluted at a 1:3 ratio with water. For bruises, a washcloth can be used for a witch hazel compress. An ice cube placed inside the cloth keeps the compress cold and diminishes swelling.
Warning
Store in cool dry place or refrigerate.
