When you look at Kim Kardashian‘s flawless skin, you probably think she pays thousands of dollars for exotic skincare products. But according to Kim, the key to her glowing, healthy skin is a beauty secret that was passed down to her by her grandmother, MJ.
“For as long as I can remember, my grandma MJ has been telling all of my sisters and I about the one cure-all health and beauty product she swears by,” Kim wrote in a blog post on March 30.
“Witch hazel is a topical astringent that comes from the leaves and bark of a shrub that grows in North America,” she continued. “Its main use is as an anti-inflammatory treatment, but it can also enhance your skin’s appearance and help to eliminate blemishes. When you use it as a toner, it reduces the appearance of pores and smoothes skin. It doesn’t have an alcohol content, so it won’t make skin dry. When I first heard MJ talk about witch hazel years ago, I had no clue that it was a beauty remedy. I definitely thought it was some strange potion, lol.”
