I'm kicking off the herbal zone with this one because it's definitely my favorite! Most people don't even know that this is an herb! Witch Hazel is a North American tree where the bark and leaves are distilled to produce a liquid. It is very powerful and safe to use. As the ultimate cleanser and anti-inflammatory, it is helpful for treating cuts, rashes, or most conditions where the skin is opened. Which leads me to believe that Witch Hazel should be in the cabinet of anyone dealing with acne. Personally, I use Which Hazel to help prevent any eczema/psoriasis flare ups. After every shower or bath I sprinkle bit in my hand and rub all over my skin. Also, I squeeze onto a cotton ball to cleanse my face and neck, especially after removing makeup. There should be 14% or less alcohol content. I have listed some more traditional uses and benefits below. Picture shown above.
