Herb

Witch Hazel

A gentle plant-based liquid that many reach for to soothe and freshen irritated skin.

🌱 What it is

Witch hazel is a liquid distilled from the bark and leaves of the witch hazel shrub, long valued for its gentle, cooling touch on the skin.

✨ How it may help

  • May help support calmer, less irritated skin
  • May help support a fresh, clean feeling after cleansing
  • May help support comfort for minor skin itchiness
  • May help support a tightened, refreshed look to the skin

🥄 How to use it

Dab a small amount of alcohol-free witch hazel onto clean skin using a cotton pad, once or twice a day as needed. It is for use on the outside of the skin only.

⚖️ Caution

Witch hazel is for outside use only — do not swallow it, and choose an alcohol-free version since it is gentler on the skin.

🍃 A note from nature

A simple shrub bark holding such soothing comfort is a gentle nudge toward how carefully the Creator wove healing into the plants around us.
