Amazon Basics Witch Hazel USP Astringent for Oily Skin, Relief from Irritation and Redness, Unscented, 16 Fluid Ounces (Previously Solimo)

I’ve been using the Amazon Basics Witch Hazel USP Astringent (unscented) for several weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed by how well it works as a straightforward, effective toner. It contains about 86% witch hazel, giving it a very natural astringent effect. I apply it after cleansing in the morning and evening. It helps balance excess oil without over-drying, thanks to the tannins in witch hazel that help refine pores. It’s also quite soothing — I’ve used it on minor irritations like bug bites and redness, using its anti-inflammatory properties. The unscented formula is a huge plus: no strong fragrance, which is perfect for sensitive skin or anyone who prefers a neutral toner. I understand it has some alcohol (around 14%, per safety data), which likely contributes to its astringency, but I haven’t found it irritating. One downside: the packaging is very basic, and the large bottle can be a bit cumbersome to handle. If not stored securely, there’s a risk of spills. Overall, I think it’s a fantastic value pick for anyone wanting a basic, effective, and affordable toner — especially if you have oily or acne-prone skin. Just make sure to follow up with a moisturizer (or a light serum) so your skin doesn’t feel too tight.

I use Amazon Basics Witch Hazel on a cotton pad as part of my daily hygiene routine, especially for areas like under my breasts, underarms, and external intimate areas. It’s very gentle, helps eliminate odor, and doesn’t cause irritation or dryness. I also use it to clean my lace front wigs instead of alcohol, and it works perfectly without drying out or damaging the lace. It removes buildup while staying gentle on both my skin and the lace. It has no strong scent, works well for everyday use, and is a staple in my routine. For the price and quality, this is easily a 5-out-of-5 for me.

I have repurchased this countless times and it works great. I use mine as a facial toner as well as for first aid purposes. I recently tried swiping this on my armpits and under boob area after showering and it helps to reduce sweat smell. So great and gentle, with multiple uses. 🙂

Good quality astringent and does what it's supposed to do. Good price and came without any leakage. Fresh witch hazel scent.

Does what witch hazel does. So far, no witches

I have reordered several times. I use it as facial toner after cleansing and before serums and moisturizer. It’s a great value and lasts a long time, a little goes a long way. The only complaint I guess I have is that it doesn’t have a great smell but it dissipates quickly after drying.

I personally prefer the great value brand witch hazel buy this is a good and inexpensive alternative. The main difference is that I only need 1 swipe of a cotton ball with the great value brand, whereas with this brand 1 swipe won't cover my entire face.

This product is actually mostly Witch Hazel unlike some other brands which have rose water or just plain water. I use it every night to cleanse my face.
