Hamamelis virginiana witch hazel, water and ethyl alcohol. USDA Certified Organic.
Sold by the gram, $0.0614/g. Please bring or order a bag
MINIMUM ORDER IS 100g OR $5 WORTH and buy a bag or other suitable container (search JAR or BOTTLE on our website).
You can bring your own container if you are picking up. Please make sure that you bring bottles for liquids and wide-mouthed jars or bags for solids. Please make sure that the containers you bring are the right size. To use your container for oils, the bottle must be exactly the right size because I will be filling your order by volume. A 1000mL J jar, not a quart jar. In case of shortage due to metric versus imperial measures, I may fill your container right to the top, your measure might be short, or I may ask you to buy an extra container.
Description: Witch Hazel is alcohol-extracted from the leaves, flowers and bark of the hamamelis tree. Contains a mixture of 85-86% aqueous witch hazel extract and 14-15% ethyl alcohol as a carrier and preservative. Alcohol is the traditional substance used to extract and preserve the therapeutic properties of witch hazel.
Observant Hindu, Moslem and recovering alcoholic clients may appreciate alcohol-free toners, aftershaves and mouthwashes. Buy Witch hazel Hydrosol or Alcohol-free witch hazel distillate here.
Common Uses: One of nature's best astringents, there is probably no better tonic or toner for skin care preparations. It is frequently used in products like after-shave lotions, where it shows mildly styptic properties as well as helping to reduce razor burn and swelling through its cool soothing sensation. In skin care, Witch Hazel can be used as a toner or in place of a cleanser. It is particularly beneficial for oily and problem skin through its more gentle properties.
I like to combine witch hazel with flower water (hydrosol) to make customized, wonderful-smelling toners, refreshing spritzers, and gentle yet effective yoga mat sprays.
