CHUNMEE 9371 is full of vitamins B2, E, K, and catechins. These skin-strengthening antioxidant vitamins play a role in maintaining collagen levels and supporting new skin cell growth. Vitamin E is also intensely hydrating. Antioxidants are our most powerful weapon in the fight against aging.
Catechins are especially potent. A specific catechin (EGCG) found in green tea has been found to reactivate dying skin cells. It's thought to be 200 times more powerful than vitamin E for neutralizing free radicals which can attack and damage the DNA of the cells.
Other antioxidants in the tea help to prevent free radical damage and encourage healing of cells. It has an inhibitory action on collagenase, a collagen-reducing enzyme known to break down collagen, thereby helping to maintain firm, elastic skin.
Green tea is a powerful antibacterial agent. Polyphenols in the tea damage bacterial membranes to fight against infection. It helps to kill systemic bacterial inflammation like you see with acne.
Green tea can protect you from the sun. Research shows that drinking green tea can neutralize the damage done by exposure to UV rays by reducing inflammation and skin redness associated with that exposure. Researchers suggest that green tea exerts "protection against sunburn inflammation and potentially longer-term UVR-mediated damage."
Green tea has caffeine and tannins. These both help to shrink blood vessels around the eyes. Tannins also act as an astringent, which shrinks pores.
Green tea decreases oil production. Green tea helps to reduce the production of sebum (the skin's natural oil) by the glands.
Green tea leaf fibers stimulate hair growth. That's attributed to catechins and polyphenols stimulating cellular turnover in the hair follicles.
Green tea leaves are mildly abrasive. That makes them a good choice for a natural exfoliator that can remove excess oil and pollutants. They make for a clean, safe alternative to the plastic microbeads that are included in many products, which are wreaking havoc on the environment.
