green tea
Green tea is a powerful antioxidant that contains, among other things, polyphenols, catechins, vitamins B, C and E, theanine, flavonoids and polysaccharides. Antioxidants prevent inflammation and cell aging. Green tea also contains tannin, which soothes swelling and inflammation in the tissues, making it an excellent aid for treating acne. When applied to the skin, green tea removes excess sebum and a greasy feeling. Green tea also removes toxins and other harmful substances that enter the skin from the environment.
