Witch hazel acts as an:

  1. Emollient

  2. Humectant

  3. Astringent

  4. Antiseptic

The correct answer is: Astringent

Witch hazel is known for its astringent properties, meaning it can cause constriction of body tissues and blood vessels. This makes it useful for toning and tightening the skin. While emollients and humectants can help moisturize the skin, they do not have the same properties as astringents. Antiseptics, on the other hand, are used for preventing or stopping the growth of microorganisms, and are not necessarily related to skin benefits. Therefore, the other options are incorrect and C is the best answer.
