WHAT’S COOKING? GREEN TEA
By Ify Nwobi | | Uncategorized
I am so excited to tell you what’s cooking in the ‘Miracle in the Green’ kitchen. This will explain why I have been missing in action. Miracle in the Green is formulating an ‘all natural” skin care line from scratch, no bases, no private labeling all from scratch. A lot of work but so worth it.
I will love for you to accompany me on this journey. One fantastic way to engage you is by writing about some of the ingredients that will feature in these products. I hope you find this informative. Since our products are all natural, you’ll find that most of the ingredients not only nourish the skin but also are edible. One of them is Green Tea.
WHY GREEN TEA?
There are many other amazing ingredients but I decided to start with Green Tea because its one of the popular ones. I am a Green Tea drinker myself and I love it. However, Green Tea is also amazing when used on the skin.
Beauty Trivia:
Did you know Green Tea and Black Tea actually come from the same plant only Green Tea undergoes minimal processing and retains more nutrients?
We chose to put Green Tea in our products because it’s been a popular beauty remedy for generations. A great facial cleanser it’s often called liquid jade because of its powerful health benefits, it prevents wrinkles and is anti-inflammatory. Green Tea is a rich source of Epigallocatechin Gallate, or EGCG, widely regarded as one of the most powerful antioxidants available. Green Tea can also be used to treat acne and can be used as a toner at night to tighten pores and in the morning to brighten your skin. The caffeine in green tea helps make your eyes more awake. Green Tea’s polyphenols target free radicals, particularly those caused by UV-induced oxidative damage. I bet you will agree that Green Tea is a great ingredient to have in any skincare regimen.
Love + miracles,
