Green tea: the secret to supple skin

Green tea is a natural miracle cure with countless benefits. One of them? Glowing skin! Try it our DIY green tea scrub!

Green tea reduces inflammation, helps eliminate toxins, and calms red skin. It also increases the skin’s elasticity and can reduce swelling. Green tea works wonders on skin stressed by the sun, thanks to its regenerative effect. With just a few ingredients, you can make a soothing green tea scrub at home. Try it out. 

Add two tablespoons of green tea to warm water and allow to brew for a few minutes. Meanwhile, mix a large cup of sugar with two teaspoons of honey and four tablespoons of olive oil. Then, add the tea to your mixture. Make sure the mixture is as dry as possible. If it is too runny, just add some more sugar. Apply on your face and let your thoughts wander, to your next stay in a spa hotel in Italy, for example. After five to ten minutes, remove the scrub with a hot, damp cloth. Then, wash your face.

Good to know:  You can store the scrub in an airtight container in the fridge for about a week.
