DESCRIPTION
Brew your best beauty blends with Witch Hazel Distillate – Alcohol Free. This raw material, otherwise known as Witch Hazel extract, is a clear, colorless botanical prepared from the recently cut and partially dried, dormant twigs of the Hamamelis virginiana Linn plant, also known as the Witch Hazel plant. These distillates offer a variety of benefits for skin and personal care applications.
Alcohol Free Distillates are particularly advantageous for applications that require the soothing natural astringent properties of Witch Hazel, and there are instances where the use of alcohol is not appropriate.
The most popular uses of Witch Hazel Distillate are for skin-cleansing products, including sun care, wound care, children's sting free products, and other products where skin sensitization is an issue.
DIRECTIONS & SUGGESTED USAGE
