Wear Your Green... Facial Mask!

Wear your Green! 
Green Tea and Fresh Mint Mask


Ingredients
  • Green tea
  • A tablespoon of rice flour
  • A tablespoon of granulated sugar
  • Half a tablespoon of lemon juice
  • Ground fresh mint

How to make it
  1. Make a cup of green tea, with lots of tea. Twice as much loose tea as you’d normally use to drink, or two teabags if you use tea bags.
  2. Leave the tea bags in for an hour, and if the tea is still warm (unlikely) chill it in the fridge until it’s cool.
  3. Take it out, mix in the rice flour, sugar,lemon juice and fresh mint, pat it onto your face and either use it as a face wash or (better) leave it on for 15 minutes.
  4. Wash off and moisturize.

The Benefits:
  • Green tea is famously good for problem skin.
  • It can help with your acne, but it’s also great at soothing sensitive skin of all kinds.
