I bought a distilled witch hazel without alcohol to use clear up my spots quicker. I don't use it all over my face as it would dry my cheeks out. It does work as a on the spot treatment and I...

The drawback of WH at the store in liquid form is that there is 15% ethanol present as part of the extraction process and as a preservative. This lowers the tannin efficacy. I spray it on cuts and...

I use the generic drugstore witch hazel as a toner on hot and humid days or when I have the occasional dreaded breakout. It is very cheap so I like that aspect of it, and it works well to get rid...

I use the generic witch hazel mixed with a bit of alcohol. So refreshing! The extra bit of alcohol helps a bit more with the shine. I've been using this forever it seems! And it's cheap.

Im an aesthetician, and we use this to promote extractions, this really helps purging out whiteheads, along with BZK pads. I would not use this as a toner, too drying, you should never use any...

The brand I use is Dickinson's Witch Hazel. I don't mind the smell, but from some of the complaints, I wonder if other brands smell worse? I didn't always use this, but did years ago. I felt I...

This makes a good, cheap toner. Don't notice much of a difference between this and other toners. The only thing I don't like is that it smells funny.

I use this as a facial cleanser or toner every day and love it. The generic brand is cheap and just as effective as any brand name ones. It's gentle enough to use on my face every day. I recommend...

I've been using witch hazel for years. I've tried expensive toners, but I always come back to this. I use it primarily to get the first layer of makeup and oil off my face at the end of the day. ...

I like this home remedy as a toner. Only use it on oily areas, if you use it on dry sensitive areas it only makes matters worse. I tried using on my cheeks, but they are too sensitive for this so I...
