Green Tea for your Skin!

Carey Ramstead

Green Tea isn't just a drink! Green tea has skincare benefits too, from treating acne to preventing wrinkles and sagging skin.

 

Green tea is rich in catechins, which stops acne-causing bacteria, helps to balance hormones and has anti-inflammatory components that diminish redness and inflammation and promote healing which is crucial in acne treatment. Green Tea also helps reduce itching and inflammation, and can be used to treat psoriasis, rosacea and other skin conditions that are caused by inflammation.

 

The EGCG compounds in green tea are known to reactivate dead skin cells due to it's high concentration of oligomeric proanthocyanidins – OPCs, which is one of the most potent antioxidants. These antioxidants prevent premature aging by stopping free radicals that damage cells. OPCs also inhibit the enzymes that break down collagen and elastin, which are essential for skin firmness.
