In recent years, different plant extracts have been popular for their topical applications, promising having better skin in ways more than one. Among others, one of the most popular is the use of green tea, which is believed to be effective because it contains flavonoids with phenolic structures (1).
Among others, the following are some of the most amazing benefits that green tea can provide for the skin:
- Prevent Acne: In one study, EGCG, the major polyphenol found in green tea, has been proven to be effective in the treatment of acne bulgaris, making it possible to reduce serum levels in the skin(2).
- Protects against UV Damage: Being abundant with plant polyphenols, green tea is also asserted to be effective in providing the skin with protection from the harmful rays of the sun (3). With the high level of protection it provides the skin against sun damage, it is also known for the prevention of skin cancer (4).
- Rich in Antioxidants: By being rich in antioxidant, it is also known for having excellent anti-inflammatory compounds that promote better-looking skin, even if you are already aging. (5).
- Rich in Antimicrobial Properties: Because of such, you can expect that the application of green tea will help in getting rid of the bacterial infection on the skin (6).
