Acne Spot Treatment with Matcha Tea

Hey guys! I'm  in love with green tea & skin health. As you may know by now from previous posts, green tea contains antibacterial agents that keep the skin looking squeaky clean.

This doesn't mean you'll never break out again. Unfortunately, stress and hormones play a huge role in breakouts. I'm so busy most days I have a day planner app on my phone to keep me on top of deadlines, the kids' school projects, and to remember to pick up the dry cleaning. I've also noticed a change in my body. I'm close to entering my 30's, and I notice I break out more before I start my cycle. TMI? You're over it! I'm a woman, and you may be one.

I started doing research on matcha tea. I am quite fond of this stuff, and even though it is a bit pricey, a tiny bit goes a long way. Trust me, I learned this the hard way when I accidentally made a mud smoothie instead of a nice matcha tea.

It's loaded with even more antioxidants and yummy goodness for your body and skin. This is because during processing, it is not exposed to oxygen. Simply take a tiny amount of matcha tea, and form a paste using water, or a blend of raw apple cider vinegar and water.

Using a clean, lip brush, dab on a small amount and leave on until it drys. Matcha also makes an amazing mask, but I will be honest, it's a bit messy.

For cost practicality, I suggest using it for spot treatment, but don't be afraid to indulge.

Enjoy!
