Witch Hazel?

I was reading an online article a little while ago but I can’t remember where.. it was about Witch Hazel and how it creates beautifully radient complexions. My skin has been kinda naughty lately, (even though I do take pretty good care of it) and so now I kinda want to try it on my skin. Have any of you beauties tried products that contain Witch Hazel? & if so, which products & what kind of effect did they have on your skin? Also, if you are aware of any other info such as side effects it may cause please let me know =) Thanks.

    I love witch hazel i use it daily. I have oily skin in the t zone area which is where i mainly concentrate the witch hazel. Its very gentle and doesnt burn my skin. It tingles a little bit where there is a breakout but other than that the alcohol doesn’t irritate my skin at all

    Love this stuff been using it for a year now, You can get different scents but i use the original one. The cheapest place to buy it is on iherb.com, they have all the different selections and go for around $12. I remember when i was looking for it i found it on ebay selling for around $25. ahhh
    So yeah iherb best place and cheap shipping

    I saw the Grace Cole Tea Tree and Witchaz cleanser on sale at Chemist Warehouse and purchased it. I don’t mind it but I wouldn’t be repurchasing it. I don’t really feel it does much for my skin, I don’t have any new breakouts and my skin looks a little clearer. It’s supposed to be an exfoliant and I can sort of feel the beads but Id much prefer if they were more prominent. I don’t find that it dries my skin at all contrary to a previous comment about the two ingredients being drying.

    I’ve used Witch Hazel for years… TN Dickinson’s brand… I don’t use it very often anymore as thankfully my face has calmed down! I do use St Ives’ Blemish Control Green Tea Scrub… I love it! But I also take a few supplements and seriously limited the breads and dairy products I consume.

    I use T.N. Dickinson’s Witch Hazel – like other people have already said, I also have sensitive eyes but not skin and I loooove the Witch Hazel.

    My boyfriend ran out of toner a few months ago and I suggested he try my Witch Hazel and he loves it. He gets bad pimples and acne on his face sometimes and he’s noticed that his skin’s improved considerably. 🙂

    Hey! Very true .. Witch hazel has always helped me with treating my pimples and acne. I vouch for it.

    Best Regards

    There is this company that does wholesale, but sells to the public also. They have a Facial Toner that has witch hazel in it for only $4.40…wow

    They also have a floral water, which form my understanding can be spritzed onto one’s face:

    And a distillate from Witch Hazel:

    The best range of Witch Hazel products are the Mediwitch range, They are made in Australia too!
    They do non-alcoholic witch hazel, and also with lemon and Aloe Vera, and a gel.. They are not expensive either. I gt my last one on ebay, but they are available in chemists.
