Green tea is from the same Camellia Sinsensis bush as black tea but undergo less processing then black tea, thus increasing the therapeutic goodness of the leaves. After the leaves have been picked they are allowed to dry naturally then heat-treated to prevent the absorption of oxygen. This gives the tea it light green to yellow colour
Green Tea soap is the ideal way to start your day as it contains two very important things. First it contains Caffeine to start your day with a boost. It is said that the skin can absorb caffeine, to give your body the boost some people need in the mornings. The second thing is the free radicals called ECGC that Green Tea contains. These help eliminate wrinkles and the signs of aging. The anti oxidate found in green tea is said to be more than 20 times that in vitamin C and 200 times more than in vitamin E. Green tea has also been proven to help fight minor wounds. A study at the Medical College in Georgia found that Green tea had the ability to repair some dying skin cells and thus may help suffers of Psoriasis and help fight some tumours
Both animal and human studies have credibly demonstrated that topical green tea formulations reduce sun damage. Green tea appears to exert sun damage protection by quenching free radicals and reducing inflammation rather than by blocking UV rays. Therefore, green tea may synergistically enhance sun protection when used in addition to a sunscreen.
