Application benefits of witch hazel hydrosol*:
Witch hazel is the strongest antioxidant hydrosol, which makes it one of the most important anti-aging substances. It cleans the skin and leaves a light film of oil to soothe dry skin.
Helps relieve swelling with a mist, compress, or soak. A dab under the eyes at bedtime helps reduce morning puffiness.
Strong anti-inflammatory properties make it useful for acne, cracked or blistered skin, and to cleanse wounds.
Witch hazel helps constrict blood vessels, which makes it a quick remedy to stop bleeding from minor cuts and abrasions. It is a natural alternative to a styptic pencil to reduce bleeding from razor cuts.
Helps soothe psoriasis and eczema, especially when combined with yarrow hydrosol.
Calms razor burn, bites, stings, rashes, itching, sunburn, and scaling.
Famous for reducing hemorrhoids and varicose veins.
Relieves itchy bottom irritation.
Helps soothe sore muscles.
Long history of use as a gargle for sore throat or hoarseness.
Makes excellent wet wipes.
Refreshing room, linen, or clothing spray.

Witch hazel hydrosol contains a potent concentration of all the beneficial properties of witch hazel through the process of distilling the leaves and bark of the plant. It possesses a subtle green, herbaceous aroma. Its primary use is for skin and oral care.
Witch hazel hydrosol should NOT be confused with the witch hazel product commonly found in pharmacies or health food stores. These contain 14-30 percent alcohol, are very drying to the skin, have varying levels of dilute extract, and are used primarily as a topical sports rub. Use reliable sources for purchasing the hydrosol to insure you are obtaining a concentrated distillate and not a diluted version.
