Was Witch Hazel your teenage skin care staple? Here we go back to school and deliver a masterclass on how Witch Hazel can help you to battle adult blemishes.
What are the skin care benefits of Witch Hazel?
You might associate Witch Hazel products with your school days, but this natural ingredient is a powerful weapon in the fight against adult acne.
It’s created by distilling the twigs and leaves of the Witch Hazel tree and when used in skin care, it helps to refine pores, control excess oil and prevent blemishes.

Is witch hazel good for acne prone skin?
Witch Hazel is an ideal natural ingredient for helping to balance combination, oily and spot-prone skin types.
These typically have hyperactive sebaceous glands which produce excess amounts of sebum, a natural oil that attracts acne bacteria to the skin.
Witch Hazel is also a helpful spot-fighting active to have to hand when the skin is subject to hormonal imbalances and produces an excess of pore-clogging sebum.
Life stages that can imbalance hormones and increase your likelihood of experiencing adult acne and spots include pregnancy, the menopause and the perimenopause.

Is Witch Hazel suitable for sensitive skin or rosacea?
Witch Hazel is incredibly astringent and as such, it may not be suitable for very sensitive skin.
A better way to gently calm and clear spot-prone sensitive skin is to cleanse the face with our Scent Free Cleanser & Make-Up Remover which is especially designed to clean and care for delicate skin.
