Witch Hazel Extract

Overview

Witch Hazel Extract is a clear, colorless distillate prepared from recently cut and partially dried dormant twigs of Hamamelis virginiana Linné. Hamamelis virginiana primarily contains polyphenols, including tannins, phenolic acids, and flavonoids.

Infused herbal products are steeped, or distilled using dried botanicals until the menstruum takes on some of the constituents and, hence properties of that herb. These herbal infusions have a multitude of therapeutic uses, each with their own unique properties based on the constituents that have been extracted.

This witch hazel has been sourced using quality products from highly regarded and trusted sources from the around the world. It has been inspected by the Quality Control Laboratory at Starwest by expert technicians via a complete and thorough analysis of this herbal infused oil.
