Hot Ingredient: Green Tea

So I blogged back in January about all the weight and health benefits of green tea but I wondered how this natural wonder can also help out your skin.  These green tea-based skin products are my personal favorites, and, also happen to be a-mazing for your skin.

Bvlgari Eau Parfumee Green Tea – I’m usually pretty loyal to my perfume favorites (CHANEL Coco Mademoiselle and Narciso Rodriguez Her) but I have to admit how much I love this green tea perfume.  This unisex cologne touts some of the chicest notes including Italian Bergamot, Bulgarian Rose and Smoked Wood.

Boscia Green Tea Blotting Linens – Blotting papers are an absolute must for everyone’s makeup arsenal.  So mix up a version that not only reduces shine on your face but also includes leaf fibers from the exotic Abaca Tree plant and green tea infusions and you’ve got the best of the best.

St. Ives Naturally Clear Green Tea Cleanser – This refreshing facial cleanser is fabulous with 2% salicylic acid and 100% natural green tea…that way you’re not only fighting acne but the green tea helps calm the redness associated with acne.

Celestial Seasonings Decaf Green Tea – Truth be told, my body doesn’t handle caffeine very well.  I’m not a coffee drinker and the last time I had a cup of green tea from Starbucks, people probably thought I had taken drugs.  My Dad actually revealed that he has the same reaction to caffeine and that he’s obsessed with this decaf version.  As always, my Dad was right.
