Have you ever considered using your green tea bags to make a facial scrub? After drinking your tea, instead of disposing of the bags, use them to create an amazing scrub for your skin. Green tea is full of antioxidants that can help benefit your skin in various ways. Combined with other natural ingredients, this green tea facial scrub will rejuvenate your skin and give you a healthy glow.

GREEN TEA: The antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties found in green tea can help treat acne, oily skin, and unclog pores. The caffeine in green tea constricts the blood vessels around the eyes, treating puffy eyes and dark circles. Green tea protects the skin from UV damage and premature aging.

HONEY: Honey contains antibacterial properties that can effectively improve oily and acne-prone skin. Honey is also a natural humectant and is extremely moisturizing.

JOJOBA OIL: Jojoba oil can help reduce oil production and prevent bacteria growth. It also slows down the appearance of aging and helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
