Stay Young... Extract of Green Tea For Skin

green tea for skin


Do you need green tea for skin protection? Give green tea a try for your skin...you may see a smoother and brighter appearance in the short term, and you may be preventing cancer and aging in the long term.

Green tea cosmeceuticals have been proven effective for treating sun damaged cells.

But there are many other cosmeceuticals that are potentially dangerous for us to use.


What is a cosmeceutical?



Cosmeceuticals are the many anti-aging skin products – they overlap the distinction between pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.

These products are the fastest growing sales sector of the entire cosmetic industry, and are widely marketed as being safe.

Health experts are warning that some of these products typically contain some ingredients that actually strip the skin of its protective surface, which absorbs ultra-violet radiation rays and therefore increases the risk of melanomas (skin cancer).

Parabens, commonly used as preservatives in cosmeceuticals, cause toxic hormonal effects when tested on mice.

Limonene is also a common ingredient in anti-aging products. It is an irritant as well as a carcinogen – not good! Bisabolol is another typical ingredient that strips off the surface layers of the skin.

As yet, there is no regulation of these ingredients by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration).

Instead, the marketplace- us - is where the majority of cosmeceutical ingredients are being tested, by an industry largely concerned with the almighty dollar than its ethical obligations and skin help.

But....the same concerned experts acknowledge that there are some exceptions.


Why use green tea skin products?

There are many emerging ‘green’ alternatives to these cosmeceutical products. One of these is date palm oil, and another – GREEN TEA.

This is manufactured as a topical green tea cream, which has proven effective for treating sun damaged skin.

So use green tea for skin protection - this natural botanical product is so much better - instead of an expensive, untested and potentially dangerous cosmeceutical product containing chemicals that strip away any protective layer of skin, opening our bodies to skin cancers and lesions.

Green tea extract will help fight sunburn and damaged skin, inhibiting lesions and ultimately skin cancer.

The choice is clear... natural is usually best! So switch to a green tea product and benefit from all the extra health positives that green tea will give you!
