If you have seen skin products recently you may have noticed an increase in the uses of green tea in skin care products and cosmetics. There are many reasons for that - green tea contains compound called polyphenols which protect our skin against sun damage (UV rays).
It also reduces inflammation and free radicals (toxins, dirt etc) from our skin. Additionally green tea slows down the anti-aging process and maintains elasticity of the skin. Regular drinking of green tea also yield similar health benefits for our body and skin.
Honey has moisture retention properties, which is good for dry skin. Honey also has anti-septic and anti-bacterial properties, this helps remove the acne, pimples causing bacteria from our skin and helps prevent, heal and reduces scars and dark spots.
