Matcha Green Tea Facial
I came across this recipe on HelloGlow and couldn’t help but share it. I love green tea & Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood eo! Win-win😉
Green tea is all-round awesome. It is seriously one of the best things to put on our faces in summer. Its fancy-pants polyphenols help protect the skin from the sun, while the catechin gets to work purifying and amino acids go forth and fight aging and sun damage.
Matcha is the big daddy of the green tea world. This bright green powder contains 10 times the nutrients of other teas and as such, it’s honored in Japanese tea ceremonies. Honey soothes, cinnamon stimulates blood flow, while Sandalwood essential oil nourishes, making this combination a wonderful skin rejuvenator.
INGREDIENTS:
1 tablespoon Matcha green tea
1 teaspoon honey
pinch cinnamon (not for sensitive skin!)
½ tablespoon boiled water
5 drops of Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood essential oil
INSTRUCTIONS:
Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl, adding the water slowly until you reach a consistency thick enough to apply.
Apply to face (avoiding the eye area) and neck and relax for 20 minutes. Rinse off, tone and moisturize.
