Acne is one of commonest skin conditions in the world. At least everyone of us has dealt or is already dealing with it. There are myriad of remedies for it but somehow not all of them work for everyone. As I was browsing the internet I chanced upon a remedy that could be the one thing your skin needs to flash acne out completely finally.
It is called ‘Witch Hazel’. If you haven’t heard about it till now, let me break it down for you. Witch hazel is a natural remedy extracted from the bark and leaves of a plant called Hamamelis virginiana. It contains chemicals called tannins, which when applied to the skin help to reduce swelling and bacteria. This extracted liquid (witch hazel) is then incorporated in a number of skincare products such as toners, cleansers and lotions.
According to the many positive reviews I’ve read about it (including one for actress Zendaya), products with this miracle ingredient soothe the skin and leave it with little to no blemishes. Witch Hazel has a lot of properties that are anti inflammatory and antiviral, so that means the swellings and germs that are part of the acne package may be dealt with naturally.
Don’t worry about the name, it’s not some concoction from some old lady in a forest. It’s a great addition to your arsenal of skin products especially if you’ve been struggling with acne or pimples and your skin will thank you.
