You don’t have to spend a lot of money to have great-looking skin. In fact, as I’ve mentioned before on the official Kaki West blog, there are many effective and affordable beauty products available at your local drug store. One of my favorites is witch hazel astringent. Here’s why it’s always in my medicine cabinet.
It’s a gentle toner. Too many toners on the market are harsh on the skin, especially for people with sensitive skin. Many toners also strip the skin of moisture or sting when applied. But witch hazel astringent gently tones the skin. It also reduces inflammation and oil. Plus, it doesn’t sting!
It gets rid of puffy eyes. With a busy lifestyle as a model and actress (see Kaki West images), it’s hard to avoid puffy eyes every once in a while. If you need to get rid of under eye baggage fast, apply witch hazel on some cotton pads and place them over your eyes for a few minutes. It has the power to reduce puffiness without the use of any harsh chemicals.
It helps tighten pores. If you use it as a daily toner, you will also notice that this product does more than clean your skin. It also helps reduce the size of your pores.
