Cons:
Most preparations are packaged as a liquid, denatured by the addition of alcohol. The odor is not strong, but it is reminiscent of the bark from which it is distilled. I find the smoky fragrance preferable to that of most medicated pad products.
Witch hazel is often a better option than many commercial acne preparations. Like salicylic acid, Witch Hazel originated as a native American herbal remedy prepared from bark. Witch Hazel is still prepared from bark, and has an earthy, bark-like smell. The smell is from volatile oils and tannins, which appear to have direct effects in skin and blood cell activity.

Pros:
Calmed my skin down within two days. No skin irritation. Reduced the appearance of existing skin irritation on my face. Leaves my skin feeling calm and smooth.
Cons:
Smell is awkward (because it doesn't have the same smell of the commercial brand astringents, no fruity smells.) Sometimes things that are good for you doesn't smell inviting at first, you'll get used to it.
Nature is the best remedy for our ailments. I recommend the witch hazel to anyone suffering from acne or skin irritations.
