Does witch hazel have alcohol in it?

As defined by the United States Pharmacopeia (USP), genuine witch hazel will contain pure ethyl alcohol as a preservative.  

However, there are also alcohol-free witch hazel products. While they contain a different preservative system, they do use natural witch hazel distillate.   

We go above and beyond to use natural grain alcohol to ensure our products are as gentle as they can be on your skin.
