    Default Dickinson's Witch Hazel has a new look

    Just in case anyone was searching for some Witch Hazel with no luck, know that the label has changed, it now looks like the bottle on the website.

    Dickinsons Products

    Just thought I would put this out there to let everyone know.

    What I hate is that they don't carry it anywhere around here. I have checked 5 places to no avail. Provided it is around the shaving stuff anyway.

    Interesting. Dickenson's used to have two bottles: blue label and yellow label. I *think* it was exactly the same stuf but marketeed to two different groups of people: Women wanting something for their make-up kit (yellow label) and those wanting a general purpose astringent (blue label). Images attached.

    Also, a while back I was trying to find out if there was a difference between Dickenson and Humphries and found this:

    Dickinson Brands Inc.
    31 East High Street
    East Hampton, CT 06424
    860.267.2279

    Humphreys Pharmacal
    31 East High Street
    East Hampton, CT 06424
    860-267-8710

    I found it in cosmetics at Walgreens, meaning Wal Mart probably has it too if you don't have a Walgreens. If you do have a Walgreens just go there and ask the manager, they always know the store front and back, it's actually pretty impressive.

    I hadn't thought to check cosmetics. I will pop into walgreens tomorrow since I have to go to the post and it is right across the street.

    Good move, look for that yellow bottle. If you can't find it DO NOT leave, just ask the manager, they will go right to it (it's kind of magical actually).

    I got mine from walmart at 2.78 IIRC. They also have both yellow and blue labeled astringents at Raley's.

    Usually in the First Aid section near the Alcohol and Peroxide.

    How does the Thayer's smell compared to the Dickinson's? I have the Dickinson's and really don't care for the smell at all.

    Thayers has no WH smell. There is an unscented version and there are versions with various scents.
