Witch Hazel and Dry Skin

Dry Skin

Use Dickinson's Original Witch Hazel for:

DRY SKIN Even out the areas that are oily here, or dry there

Dryness, Irritation & Blemishes An independent 6 week study found that unlike many toners, Witch Hazel is non-drying, helps soothe irritated dry skin, and reduces blemishes with prolonged use. Dry skin or xerosis can have rough, flaky texture and often feels tight and itchy. It often appears dehydrated, and fine lines & wrinkles are more evident. This is because the dry facial skin’s essential oils and fats have been stripped away, removing the protective barrier and allowing it to lose necessary moisture. It is estimated that 20% of the population suffers from a dry skin problem. Dry facial skin can be exacerbated by using harsh detergents or soaps. Instead, try using moisturizing washes or creams to remove dirt and oil from dry skin and then use Dickinson’s Original Witch Hazel to tone and rejuvenate without removing the essential moisture your skin needs. Its botanical formula will not only clean your skin, but will also help to condition and nourish dry facial skin naturally, making it soft and smooth. If desired, follow with your favorite light moisturizer to form a protective barrier and help reduce moisture loss.
