Green tea, apart from being a popular beverage has many alternative uses which are beneficial in attaining a better lifestyle. Drinking green tea as well as its direct application brings in fantastic results. These 5 alternative uses of green tea will help you achieve your skin goals for 2021!

Skin’s Ph Balancer

Green tea specially with blends such as Jasmine is rich in natural oils, making it useful to treat acne prone and oily skin. Applying the brewed ‘water’ of green tea, controls excess oil and prevents breakout. Green tea is both antibacterial and antifungal, which is necessary for your skin’s pH balance and become a guard against unwanted infections, which should be of the prime most importance.

Face Mask

Being one of the least oxidized teas, green tea has loads of antioxidants, tannins and polyphenols. Blend brewed tea leaves into a paste and then apply it as a face mask. Let it sit on your face for 15-20 minutes. This green tea face mask will leave your skin beautiful but most importantly healthy from within.

Scrubber

Used green tea acts as a natural scrub. Getting semi-oxidized after being brewed, the leaves can be dried and used as a scrub. A green tea scrub will leave your skin feeling softer and cleaner with little or no need of applying moisturisers.

Toner

Due to sedentary yet fast lifestyles, people are becoming more reliant on chemical laden products in the name of self-care. One of these products is toner. It is, in case of a bad breakout, better to make you own toner using tea bags. Green tea to our surprise is also a wonderful natural toner. Clean your face and then massage very gently all over with a cool tea bag and let it sit there for a few minutes before wiping off the residue. The astringent properties of green tea shrink the pores, making skin less greasy.

Soother

Green tea being rich in tannic acid, soothes sunburns and help get rid of blemishes. Brew some green tea leaves. Once the brewed tea cools down a bit, dip a clean cotton ball or cloth and put it over areas you would like to treat. Green tea bags can also be used. Apply the wet tea bags directly on your face to areas of redness and burn.
