Green tea, also known as Camellia Sinensis, is one of the most popular beverages in the world. But in addition to being a deliciously refreshing drink, green tea also has antioxidant properties that make it an effective ingredient in skin care.
Let's see together what are the benefits that green tea brings when used as an ingredient in the world of skincare!
The benefits of green tea
Green tea contains antioxidant compounds called catechins, which help fight free radicals, responsible for skin aging. The catechins found in green tea are particularly effective in fighting the damage caused by UV rays, helping to prevent wrinkles and skin blemishes.
Additionally, green tea is known for its anti-inflammatory properties. Inflamed skin is often a sign of problems such as acne, eczema and dermatitis. Using products containing green tea can help calm it down and reduce the appearance of redness and swelling.
Green tea is also an effective natural moisturizer, which helps keep skin soft and hydrated. It also contains salicylic acid, a chemical commonly used in many acne products because it helps reduce inflammation and dissolve blackheads. Known to be rich in vitamins and minerals such as vitamin C, vitamin E and fluoride, which are essential for keeping skin healthy and youthful.
In summary, using skin care products containing green tea can help protect the skin from UV damage, reduce inflammation and the appearance of redness, moisturize the skin and prevent wrinkles and the stains. We recommend including it in one of the steps of your Korean skincare, for example in a cleanser, toner or cream.
