Beauty From Within
We all crave that beautifully glowing, radiant skin when we wake up in the mornings that you don’t have to rely on a load of highlighter and a tinted moisturiser in order to achieve. When we think of glowing, luminous skin we instantly think beauty products, which highlighter will make me glow? Which foundation will cover my blemishes? Although this is one way to go around fighting skin problems, in order for them to be treated and actually improve, it’s another story.
Forget the foundations, ditch the blushes and highlight and focus on beauty from within and how what you’re putting inside you can affect your skin on the outside. We all know how important drinking water is to aid hydration and to fight dry, dehydrated skin but what many people don’t realise is just how good green tea is for your skin, and not just any green tea, Clipper Green tea.
Adding green tea into your diet can help relieve dark circles and can brighten up your skin. A mug of pure green tea in the mornings will hydrate your skin for a day of work, targeting fatigued complexions that need a break. Not only is green tea beneficial to put into your body, but you can also use it as part of your traditional beauty routine too. Simply remove your bag and leave it to dry and you can then place it on your skin to help calm, soothe and reduce redness.
Green tea is a bit of an all-rounder in the beauty department. Whether you prefer Cranberry, Lime, Ginger or Lemon, you can ditch the makeup when you’re sipping a green tea a day.
Using green tea as part of my beauty regime is something I’ve started doing regularly and the benefits I’ve noticed have been incredible. One beauty treatment I’ve seen noticeable changes from is performing a Green Tea Steam which acts as a mini facial in your kitchen. Simply brew a green tea and hover over a large mug. The steam opens up pores, letting the anti oxidants get right into your skin and it draws out any impurities. Better yet, you can pour the remaining tea into a bottle and use it as an every day toner, result.
