Green Tea Extract in Topical Skincare | Nicole Contos Insider Tips
Who would have thought this popular drink would also make for great skin? That’s because it’s packed with antioxidant goodness. Here’s why Green Tea Extract gets an “A” !
Anti-Aging
A 2003 study found that the antioxidant EGCG, which is abundant in Green Tea Extract, has the ability to rejuvenate dying skin cells and impart a youthful appearance.
Anti-Inflammatory
Polyphenol-rich green tea soothes skin irritation and calms redness. It’s even been shown to help with hard-to-treat rosacea, psoriasis and dermatitis.
Anti-Microbial
Effective for both acneic and oily skin, Polyphenols can control bacterial growth and reduce sebum production.
Pro Tip: Choose your formulation with Green Tea wisely. The skin-nourishing parts of the Green Tea Leaf are notoriously difficult to extract. The exclusive technology used in NC Topicals delivers a higher concentration of these crucial components to your skin. It’s found in the NC Mint Papaya Polish and NC Calming Serum.
