We all know that green tea is supposed to be one of the healthier drinks out there, thanks to its compounds that support gut health, help improve brain function, and boost mental well-being. But did you know it’s also beneficial for skin health?
Camellia Sinesis leaf extract (green tea) is used in serums, face creams, and cleansers to support a variety of skin concerns, from acne to oxidative stress. Keep reading to learn how you can benefit from adding green tea extract to your skincare routine and where to find it in Isomers Skincare products!
The Skin Healing Benefits of Green Tea
Green tea offers more than just a good flavour; it’s also considered a great wellness ingredient! The camellia sinensis plant, which produces green tea leaves, contains many healing properties, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial effects that can help support a variety of wellness acts in the body, including supporting skin health.
The anti-inflammatory properties help soothe redness and skin irritation, while the antimicrobial properties make this extract ideal for treating acne-prone skin. The antioxidant properties also help target visible signs of aging like fine lines, wrinkles, dullness, and sagging.
Why Use Green Tea Topically?
Most people get the great benefits of green tea by ingesting it orally. If you love drinking brewed loose-leaf tea or matcha lattes, you’re probably enjoying some of the benefits already!
So, you may wonder: what are the benefits of applying topical green tea to your skin? If you regularly drink green tea, isn’t that enough?
While drinking green tea is certainly a great way to soak up all its skin-healing properties, camellia sinnesis leaf extract provides a more concentrated dose that targets your skin concerns directly.
Camellia sinensis extract is rich in polyphenols, which our skin needs to combat free radicals, reduce oxidative stress, and prevent premature aging. If you use a serum and face cream with camellia sinensis leaf extract, you get an extra protective barrier against these environmental stressors.
