If I have to think of a real beauty elixir, a kind of 300 products in one, something that is really good for everything, the first one that comes to mind is green tea!
Green tea is extracted from Camellia Sinensis, a small tree of the Theacea family that grows mainly in Asia. Green tea extract is mostly used in the cosmetics industry, and the infusion has antioxidant, anti-cancer and purifying properties, thanks to polyphenols.
How green tea transform our skin
Polyphenols found in large amounts in green tea help prevent skin aging because they neutralize their cause, free radicals. Not only that, green tea helps fight acne and tighten pores; in fact, catechins are excellent antibacterials and help defeat hormonal imbalances, as well as reduce redness and swelling caused by inflammation. Green tea is therefore, thanks to its properties , a perfect natural tonic that relaxes the skin and gives the complexion new light and softness: think that it is 100 times more powerful than Vitamin C and 25 times more effective than Vitamin E..a real health bomb for the skin!
Green tea is an elixir of beauty for our bodies as well
Thanks to its invigorating and invigorating properties, it is excellent as an “anti-itch” remedy. In fact, its delicate fragrance gives a pleasant feeling of freshness. In addition, green tea is also a powerful draining and “slimming”: that’s why it is also considered a powerful anti-cellulite, capable of eliminating those annoying pads on thighs and hips!
Green Tea is perfect for your hair too
Green tea protects them from damage caused by pollution thanks to theobrimine; and its high content of panthenol, vitamin C and E helps keep them healthy and strong. Not only that, thanks to catechins green tea helps fight hair loss.
The properties of green tea are truly endless, which is why I chose it for my face and body products.
