5 BENEFITS OF MATCHA FOR HEALTHY SKIN (+ A DIY FACE MASK RECIPE)

You may have heard that drinking green tea is good for your skin...and well, the proof is in the matcha chia pudding.

When you drink quality ceremonial grade matcha like Matcha Ninja, you get at least 3 times the antioxidants of the highest quality green tea-- which means extra benefits in every cup.

In today’s blog, we are sharing 5 fantastic ways matcha benefits the skin!

5 AMAZING SKIN BENEFITS YOU GET FROM DRINKING MATCHA NINJA

  • 1.Quenches Inflammation

    Matcha is an extremely rich source of antioxidants which means it’s great for combatting inflammation. If you have red, irritated skin such as acne, eczema or rashes— matcha can help soothe it.

     

  • 2.Combats Stress + Prevents Premature Aging

    The EGCG found potently in green tea is a very powerful free-radical scavenger. It helps neutralize them which reduces oxidative stress which can accelerate cellular-aging. When used topically, the caffeine in green tea can energize the skin and promote skin firmness overtime.

     

  • 3.Helps Promote a Clear + Even Complexion

    Matcha contains methylxanthines which have been shown to help stimulate microcirculation in the skin which not only helps promote healthy, radiant skin, but it helps support an even + healthy complexion too!

  • 4.Protects Against Pollution, Sun Damage + Environmental Stress

    The polyphenols in green tea have been confirmed in studies to help protect the skin from the damaging effects of UV rays. They help act as a protectant against the stress of environmental pollution as well. Headed to the beach for the day? Don’t forget to pack your matcha!

     

  • 5.Can Help Fight Hormonal Acne

    Hormonal acne is often influenced by stress and excess androgen hormones that cause the sebaceous glands to produce higher amounts of sebum. Matcha helps tackle this on both levels as it helps combat stress (both oxidative stress caused by free-radicals and emotionally by calming down the nervous system). EGCG is also anti-androgenic so if your androgen hormones are on the high side, matcha can offer some assistance in helping to reduce it. This is best paired with lifestyle support too—click here for tips on where to start!
