Green Tea for Gorgeous Skin

Posted on 9th Aug 2016

Most of us are well aware of the documented health benefits of drinking green tea to keep your body hydrated and to fight viruses and bacteria. But how many of us know all the ways that green tea helps us in beautifying our skin to achieve that coveted healthy glow?

Today, we're letting you in on four proven facts on how green tea can help to beautify your skin.

Helping Against Sun Damage

Alongside your daily sunscreen regimen, the antioxidants in green tea, when applied directly to your skin, may not necessarily block the sun's rays, but they do mitigate the damage that those rays do to your skin. Free radicals are neutralized, which blocks UV rays from causing damage. Inflammation is also reduced.
Toning Your Skin

Toning is such an important part of the cleansing process, and aids in removing the oil, dirt, and debris that can often be left behind. Green tea helps in that process, restoring the skin's delicate PH balance while helping to soothe, nourish, and hydrate.
Relieving Symptoms of Skin Conditions

Green tea has also proven to be effective in reducing the redness and irritation that comes with skin conditions like rosacea and psoriasis, and has even been proven to slow down the production of excess skin cells that many believe to be the underlying cause of some of these conditions.
Fighting the Effects of Aging

With green tea being so dense with antioxidants, it's proven to be an effective way to battle the free radicals that result in many of the skin reactions we attribute to aging (like wrinkles!).

So in addition to drinking green tea for all those incredible health benefits, consider beauty products infused with green tea to get those antioxidants working from the outside in, as well as from the inside out.
