Overview

Dickinson's Original Witch Hazel Hydrating Gel Facial Cleanser combines witch hazel with rose water and hyaluronic acid in a 12 fl oz alcohol-free formula built for normal to dry skin, aimed at hydrating and calming redness.

Witch hazel toners are traditionally associated with oily or acne-prone routines, but this version is positioned differently: alcohol-free, gel-based and paired with hyaluronic acid, which shifts it toward a hydrating cleanser for normal to dry skin rather than an astringent. It is dermatologist tested and listed as free of parabens, phthalates and artificial color.

  • Alcohol-free hydrating gel cleanser
  • Hyaluronic acid and rose water
  • For normal to dry, sensitive skin
  • 12 fl oz bottle

Who it's for

Fits people with normal to dry, sensitive-leaning skin who want a gentle face wash with a hydrating gel texture. Not the pick for oily or acne-prone skin looking for the classic astringent witch hazel effect.
