Treats inflammation. Matcha powder has many anti-inflammatory properties, especially EGCG, that reduce redness associated with chronic skin conditions such as rosacea and acne. It is gentle enough for all skin types and brings soothing relief from these issues. Not only does the skin feel better, but matcha diminishes redness, which lessens any self-consciousness about having a chronic skin condition.
Improves your complexion. Matcha powder has remarkable properties that keeps your complexion fresh and healthy. Not only does it reduce inflammation, it exfoliates and eliminates dead skin cells, then rejuvenate the underlying skin to improve your complexion.
Diminishes signs of aging. Matcha stimulates elastin production to add volume to the skin. It also protects the skin against free radicals that cause sun damage, age spots, dry skin, and yes, wrinkles.
Treats oily skin. The tannins in matcha actually shrink pores and reduce the production of oil associated with acne. If you have teenagers who struggle with breakouts and oily skin, matcha is especially beneficial as it removes oil from the skin and slows the production of the oil causing the acne.
Treats all skin types. Matcha masks are made from food, not chemicals, which is about as natural as it can get. That is why it is gentle enough for younger skin yet strong enough for skin that needs a little boost to look better.
HOW TO USE A CLEANSING BALM
Step 1: Start with a small scoop of Cleansing Balm in clean, DRY hands. Warm the product between your fingers and apply to a DRY face. Yep, even if you are wearing makeup – a good balm should melt your stubborn mascara. Gently massage the balm in circular motions all over your face.
Step 2: Wet your fingers and work around the face in circular motion.
Step 3: A quick splash of cool water will leave your skin feeling refreshed and prep your face for any serums or treatments to follow. And of course, always finish any skincare routine with your favorite moisturizer.
Step 4: If you are wearing heavy makeup, you may need to wet a muslin cloth and sponge face again to cleanse completely.
