Witch Hazel can be used in the treatment of sunburns, due to its natural anti-inflammatory properties. Mixing some with Aloe Vera is not only a great way to relieve the pain of a sunburn, but also help it to heal faster with less peeling/damaged skin. After you’ve been in the sun, go ahead and apply some Witch Hazel. If you did end up getting a little burned, the Witch Hazel might prevent unnecessary pain and damage and start the healing process.
