Can anyone give me a list of uses for Witch Hazel? Lots of details are not necessary. I would like some online references.

Witch hazel applied topically, has astringent and healing properties, and relieves itching. Good for hemorrhoids and phlebitits. Very useful in skin care.

Y'know that's a good question. there's been a bottle of witch hazel in my parents closet since I was a little kid. I never knew what it was for...
From Wikipedia...
Extracts from its bark and leaves are used in aftershave lotions and lotions for treating bruises.

My mom used to use that for pimples and to remove black heads, other than that, you sure don't hear much about it these days.
