Advantages: Cost effective

Disadvantages: No pretty packaging

Witch hazel is a very useful ointment for the treatment of spots and pimples. The most cost effective way to buy it is over the counter from a pharmacy. You won't get the pretty packaging but you will get good pure and strong whitch hazel.

The best way to use it is to simply dab it on any spots or imflamed areas of skin.

To dilute it a bit and to add a nice smell it works well mixed with some rose water which again can be bought over the counter from a dispensing chemist. A 50 / 50 mix works well.

The witch hazel liquid can also be used on cuts and scratches although should be diluted if you do not want it to sting too much. Quite a lot of spot treatment use witch hazel in amonst other ingredients but generally you are paying extra for the pretty packaging, bottles and smells when really you just need the whitch hazel element to do the job.

Summary: Useful to try
