Matcha green tea (0,5%)

Powdered Matcha tea leaves obtained from the fresh leaves of the Chinese tea shrub (Camellia sinensis (L.) Kuntze) are a very high concentration raw material - it is pure Matcha tea with three times higher concentration of polyphenols than green tea extract. Matcha is a rich source of antioxidants, it is characterized by a high content of alkaloids, terpenes, catechins, flavonoids and other active substances, thanks to which it has a strong anti-inflammatory effect, helping to eliminate and prevent wrinkles and maintaining a youthful appearance of the skin. Alkaloids present in Matcha green tea, including caffeine and theobromine, affect the metabolism of fats, effectively fighting against flabby skin and acting anti-aging. Terpenes have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. They also help reduce sebum production, therefore they are helpful in fighting acne. Known as the 'polyphenols of beauty and youth', catechins present in Matcha green tea protect the skin from the harmful effects of solar radiation. Thanks to the properties that absorb excessive amounts of UV radiation, they reduce the risk of developing skin cancer, preventing the reduction of skin hydration and formation of lesions within it. Thanks to the regular delivery of catechins, our skin regains its vitality and preserves the young look. Supporting the delaying of skin aging processes, flavonoids protect against the destruction of cell DNA, support collagen biosynthesis, improve the stability of connective tissue and protect against the harmful effects of solar radiation. Matcha green tea is rich in tannins that tighten the skin and soothe irritations. In addition, tannins form a protective coating on the skin surface, thanks to which it ceases to be sensitive to harmful weather conditions and the influence of the external environment. It also has a natural photoprotective effect (UVB) - preventing the formation of erythema. Matcha green tea is also rich in vitamin K, which strengthens the blood vessel walls. It is therefore relief for people with sensitive skin, prone to breaking blood vessels. Moreover, Matcha green tea enhances melanin synthesis, which not only helps to improve the tone of pale, tired and dull complexion but also accelerates tanning. Riboflavin and thiamine normalize the work of sebaceous glands being very effective in the fight against oily skin.
