Caution
Green Tea Liquid Extract is high in catechins, which are polyphenols that are recognised to be effective antioxidants that help reduce the effects of ageing. Their skin-soothing characteristics aid to soothe irritated skin, ease and prevent dryness damage, and promote skin elasticity and suppleness.
Additionally, catechins may help even out discoloration, reduce the appearance of cellulite, exfoliate dead skin, cleanse the skin by removing dirt, bacteria, and other pollutants on the surface, reduce the appearance of dark circles, and support skin and hair health by protecting against the damaging effects of environmental factors.
