How to use it:

For optimal results, use witch hazel water as a toner on cleansed skin, before applying your skincare or make-up. Put a small amount of the water on a cotton pad, dab the pad on your face, around your eyes or on your body where needed and let it absorb. Because witch hazel also helps with visible veins, you can, for example, mix a little with your body lotion and apply it to your legs. It is best to store Witch Hazel in a cool and dark place.

Witch hazel - the sacred tree of the Native Americans

Witch hazel was used by Native Americans for centuries. The flowers of this tree bloom in winter, which is naturally strange and was seen by Native Americans as an indication that there was something special about this tree. They discovered the special properties of the tree and used its bark, branches, leaves, and flowers.

Today, we mainly use the distillate of witch hazel on our skin, and even there, this amazing tree proves its power. Witch hazel is a hydrolate and strengthens the skin. Its astringent effect refines your pores, reducing blackheads and pimples. Furthermore, its astringent properties also help to tighten your skin and reduce fine lines. Witch hazel even helps to slow down the aging process of your skin thanks to the antioxidants present.

Witch hazel works deep into the skin, where the blood vessels are located. This makes witch hazel effective for dark circles under your eyes or swollen eyes and even helps bruises disappear faster.

The ingredient phenoxyethanol is necessary to extend the shelf life of Witch Hazel. Without this ingredient, Witch Hazel will spoil within a few weeks.
