Why We’re Obsessed with Green Tea Products and Green Tea Skin Care

Green tea is nature's best gift for our skin. Anti inflammatory tea for acne cleanses pores from deep within, effectively removing the dirt and extra sebum that causes those pesky breakouts. Anti acne tea is one of the best products for clogged pores. Green tea is also an antioxidant which means it’s super effective when it comes to acne scar removal and hyperpigmentation treatment.

Green tea is also anti inflammatory so it soothes away redness, and has a cooling and revitalizing effect on irritated skin or puffy swollen eyes. With a dash of natural vitamin C it also helps firm up skin.

I Felt Hopeless About my Skin Before I Discovered the Natural Healing Power of Green Tea

Women deserve to be able to care for their skin with gentle skin care products that really work without spending big bucks on aggressive procedures or chemical-packed lotions.

My story is one like so many other women with dark skin. I often used to get acne breakouts so I know first hand how this can take a toll on your confidence- especially during those vulnerable teenage years.

There was such a lack of quality natural skincare for hyperpigmentation and anti dark spot products on the market back then so I started testing the effects of green tea at home by using green tea bags under my eyes, and saw firsthand the green tea mask benefits. This led to me making my very own Green Tea Infused Eye Masks. Not long after, Earthen Escapes was born, and today I get to share the power of green tea skin care with women all around the world - and the results are unbelievable.

Your Skin Quiz Results Will Help you Find the Right Green Tea Products for You

All of Earthen Escapes’ gentle skin care products are suitable for you to use as part of your regular skin care routine for dry skin but let’s dive into the quiz results to see what particular products will help your unique skin type.

Skin Type Quiz Result, Type 1: Normal Skin

If your skin type is normal, you don’t struggle with spots, acne breakouts, blemishes or visible open pores because your skin produces a balanced amount of moisture and oil production.

Look after your skin and maintain that healthy glow by:

  • Staying hydrated and drinking enough water so your skin stays plump and firm.
  • Eating a balanced diet that includes a wide variety of fruit and vegetables to ensure you're getting all the vitamins and minerals necessary to maintain normal healthy skin
  • Not smoking
  • Limiting alcohol as it dehydrates your skin resulting in a dull lackluster complexion
  • Limiting sugar because excess sugar in the bloodstream affects our glycation, collagen and elastin, resulting in an aging-effect on our skin.
  • Always apply sunscreen to protect your skin from both UVA and UVB rays.
  • Always take off your makeup before bed and cleanse your face morning and evening.
  • Use a light moisturizer

Normal skin needs regular gentle TLC, and our gentle Green Tea Facial Soap will keep your skin cleansed and glowing as part of a healthy morning routine for glowing skin. Follow up with our Green tea rose toner which is the best toner for glowing skin and suitable for all skin types.

You will also benefit from our Moisturizer for Oily Skin as it works great for normal skin too. Save and on these items with our signature bundle: the Earthie Kit.

Adding a green tea eye mask to your can also keep that delicate skin under your eyes soothed and hydrated- check out our popular Green tea Infused eye masks here.

Skin Type Quiz Result, Type 2: Combination Skin

If you have combination skin, your T-zone (the area in a T-shape across your forehead, nose and chin) might be oily while your cheeks might have dry skin. The oiler sections of your skin are due to sebum overproduction- and the dry areas are due to a lack of sebum production. If you’ve got combination skin, you might struggle with say acne breakouts on your chin and dull dry skin on your cheeks.

If you’ve got combination skin,

DO:

  • Use a light cleanser suitable for all skin types as part of your morning and evening skin care routine
  • Drink enough water
  • Use oil-based dry dull skin products on your cheeks

DON’T

  • Wash your face more than twice a day
  • Stay out in the sun without sunscreen
  • Poke or pick at blackheads or pimples

Our products are ideal for offering some bespoke care to combination skin.

Our Green Tea Facial Soap will remove oil and dirt from your T-zone to keep your skin clear of blemishes without drying it out. Follow up with our Green tea rose toner as a perfect natural toner for combination skin to even out your skin tone.

To keep pores unclogged and squeaky clean across your T-zone, try our Charcoal Mask with Matcha Green Tea as part of your skin care routine to prevent acne breakouts on your face. Charcoal face mask benefits include removing oil and dirt from your pores, leaving your skin soft and radiant. Follow up with a dab of our green tea moisturizer for oily skin available in a gel form for oily skin and as an oil based moisturizer for those drier areas. Grab both the mask and a moisturizer and save money with our charcoal-moisturizer bundle!

To save, purchase the Earthie Kit, which has our soap, the toner & the moisturizer included.

Skin Type Quiz Result, Type 3: Combination skin that may be also be dry or sensitive

From harsh weather to dry air, and heat, your skin protects you from a lot. There are many external and internal factors that can contribute to dry or sensitive skin.

Extreme cold or hot temperatures, dry heat, and too much sunshine can all take a toll on your skin and dry it out so it becomes rough or dry, or even chapped or cracked. Dry skin on your face is not only uncomfortable, it can also make you look older. Dehydration or vitamin deficiency can also cause dry skin, as can overexposure to water (like washing hands over and over). Dry skin can often develop into sensitive skin that gets tight, cracked red or inflamed over time.

When it comes to how to treat dry skin on your face you want to hydrate it without overdoing it.

  • Use a lightweight moisturizer for dry skin
  • Don’t wash your face more than twice a day
  • Avoid long hot showers that strip your skin of its natural barrier oils
  • Drink plenty of water
  • Use alcohol-free natural skin products
  • Use a silk pillowcase to be gentler on dry or sensitive skin
  • Use a gentle exfoliator with natural ingredients

Nourish your skin with our Green Tea Facial Soap and Green Tea Rose Toner as they help balance the skin while soothing and hydrating the skin's barrier.

We recommend giving dry or cracked skin some TLC with our Orange Tea Scrub to remove dead skin from your face naturally at home. Specially formulated for oily, dry, and sensitive skin types, it also helps smooth away dark spots as you gently exfoliate old dead skin cells from your face. Full of yummy-smelling organic ingredients like brown sugar and citrus, add this scrub into your skincare routine a few times a week.

When it comes to hydrating products for dry skin we got you! Restore moisture to dull dry skin with our Green tea facial moisturizer in our oil-based The Moisturizer for Dry Skin. With orange essential oils to plump up your skin's vitamin C stores, our natural ingredients mean you can use this gentle cream morning and night and see dull dry skin replenish and hydrate, while green tea gets to work brightening and evening your skin tone and fading hyperpigmentation. You can also treat puffy swollen eyes with our signature product Green tea Infused eye masks. Save on these items with out signature bundle: The Earthie Kit.

Skin Type Quiz Result, Type 4:  Oily skin (or combination skin)  that can also be sensitive

If you have oily skin it means your skin produces excessive sebum. Oily skin can look like visible pores, greasy or shiny looking skin, blackheads from blocked pores, acne or blemish breakouts. Did you know that it affects between 75%-95% of adolescents? (I know I’m not alone in my struggle with acne as a teen)!

Hormonal shifts, stress, medication  and genetics are all factors that can cause oily skin.

If you have oily skin make sure you:

  • Don't use heavy foundation that clog up your pores
  • Drink plenty of water to keep skin hydrated
  • Avoid heavy creams
  • Change your pillowcase regularly
  • Cleanse morning and evening with an effective green tea cleanser

With so many expensive procedures available, we wanted to cut through the noise and provide natural green tea products that eliminate acne and heal brown spots and scars from acne effectively. Jordan finally got rid of acne scarring on her jaw when quit using all the other many creams available on the market and just consistently used our Green Tea Dark Spot Corrector.

Take care of oily skin with our gentle but powerful Green Tea Facial Soap as the best face wash for clogged pores and the best face wash for hyperpigmentation and sensitive skin. Add our Charcoal Mask with Matcha Green Tea as a regular part of your skin care routine to prevent acne breakouts on your face. Charcoal face mask benefits include removing oil and dirt from your pores, leaving your skin soft and radiant. Follow up with a dab of our Green tea facial moisturizer- available in a gel form for more oily skin and as an oil based moisturizer for those drier areas- and you can grab both in our charcoal-moisturizer bundle!

And don’t forget our best selling Green Tea Dark Spot Corrector will effectively even out skin tone and fade hyperpigmentation from acne scarring. Grab all our green tea products for best results (and value in our) Ultimate Earthie Kit.

We hope you’ve enjoyed our skin type quiz and have a good idea of where to start with our green tea products to best care for the gorgeous skin you’re in.
