This beauty brew offers a strong concentration of antioxidants that have been studied for their diverse anti-aging, health-supporting properties. When it comes to beauty, you want to be a green tea drinker for the wrinkle-reducing, sun-protective benefits in each cup. Phytochemicals in green tea called catechins (the best-known being EGCG) have the potential to block the wrinkle-forming process in the body, reverse damage caused by sun exposure, and even prevent DNA damage and the formation of skin cancer. All the while, the antioxidants in green tea have shown an ability to revive dying skin cells and defend against free-radical damage from daily stress and outside sources like pollution, slowing down the aging process overall.
