Witch hazel is a plant with powerful medicinal properties that can be used in a variety of ways. Witch hazel is rich in tannins, a natural plant compound with antioxidant properties that can help protect your skin against damage when applied topically. Most often applied to the skin and scalp, witch hazel is widely known for its ability to ease inflammation and soothe sensitive skin. When used as a toner it can help restore the pH balance of your skin.

Depending on the part of the witch hazel plant used to make it, witch hazel naturally contains between 8% and 12% tannins. In addition to the tannins, almost all types of witch hazel are distilled using denatured alcohol (ethanol), with the extract containing about 14% to 15% alcohol. Distillate contains “natural alcohol level”. Non alcohol witch hazel -the natural alcohol level has been further removed through distillation. Oily acne prone skins tends to do better with a witch hazel distillate where as a non alcohol witch hazel is more often used for dryer skins.
