the best way to use this is by throwing it in the trash. witch hazel is horrible for the skin. do your research. it "tightens" your "pores" which is not a good thing, breaks down the lipid barrier...

Really bad, was completely filled with alcohol. I only had the trial size, but it lasted me for a few months, maybe 3-4. At first it was good for my sweaty skin in the summer, but as summer passed,...
