Witch hazel is a mild astringent, which means that it can dry out an area by drawing away the water. It has been used for generations to clean and treat the skin, leaving you with a refreshed and restored look and feel. Many people use witch hazel as part of their everyday beauty treatment, including after their makeup removal.

Gently apply witch hazel to mosquito and other bug bites to help keep the area clean and dry. Many people find temporary relief from itching and irritation when it is applied directly to these areas. Witch hazel is also commonly used to clean skin affected by poison ivy, poison oak, or poison sumac. The astringency of the witch hazel can help to clear off the oils and minimizing the itching and irritation that is commonly associated with these things. One bottle of witch hazel from CVS Health can treat large areas of skin when it is gently applied using a cotton ball or other applicator.
