It has been recommended for psoriasis, eczema, aftershave applications, cracked or blistered skin, for treating insect bites, poison ivy and as the treatment of choice for varicose veins and hemorrhoids.

      Witch hazel is also known to help with speeding the healing of cold sores with several daily applications.

      Witch hazel is also traditionally known as a good first reaction against shaving cuts and abrasions for men and is also recommended by the Doctors Book of Home Remedies as effective for sunburns. Some people have found it to be an effective cure for athlete’s foot.

      Extraction Method

      Witchazel is produced from the distillation of the leaves and bark of the Witch Hazel shrub (Hamamelis virginiana). Essential Oil is not produced from the Witch Hazel because yields are too small, but it does yield a large amount of the floral water which is widely used in aromatherapy and conventional medicine. 100% Pure medical grade

    I bought a floral water (witch hazel), age defying moisturiser and exfoliator and a nettle shampoo bar. Really impressed with the quick dispatch of order and eco friendly packaging. I bought the floral water as I’m having problems with hormonal acne and it’s really helping to soothe my skin, the moisturiser is great too you only need a tiny bit and it’s light on skin and easily absorbed. I got a shampoo bar because we’re trying to further reduce our plastic, it’s great easy to use and doesn’t go slimy on side of bath. Don’t expect it to foam like liquid shampoo it goes more like frothy lather. Gives hair nice shine.
