Formulation view Minimalist formula with water and ethanol base, witch hazel extract for astringency. Methylparaben for preservation. Suitable for oily skin wet compresses; dry sensitive skin avoid high alcohol. Formulator's note: Very few ingredients, relies on alcohol evaporation for coolness, control ethanol concentration to balance preservation vs. irritation, witch hazel offers traditional care.
