Organic Matcha green tea (Camellia sinensis) powder is a potent anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial & anti-carcinogenic. It contains high levels of chlorophyll, polyphenols & amino acids, which help fight free radicals from UV rays & environmental pollution, and is a mild astringent & toner. With a long history of use in skin healing & beauty treatments, it calms psoriasis, reduces skin redness, rosacea & skin pigmentation, balancing & brightening the skin tone. Taken internally as a tea and applied externally, Matcha has been proven to stimulate natural collagen & elastin production. Applied topically, Matcha is antimicrobial, detoxifying & cleansing, and is known to regulate sebum production, making it beneficial for balancing acne & oily skin. The caffeine & tannins in Matcha increase circulation & decrease puffiness, and also help to tighten skin, reducing fine lines & wrinkles.

A South-east asian tropical medicinal plant, Butterfly pea  (Clitoria ternatea) is known for it’s anti-oxidant & stress reducing properties. The flowers contain a high concentration of naturally occurring anthocyanins, polyphenols & flavonoids, (specifically proanthocyanidin), potent antioxidants which stimulate the production of collagen & elastin, whilst reducing inflammation &, redness. Butterfly pea flowers have anti-glycation properties which slow down skin ageing. Glycation is a chemical reaction caused primarily by excess sugar, oxidative stress, pollution & UV radiation, where sugar molecules attach themselves to collagen, elastin & other molecules, causing loss of elasticity & pigmentation. Butterfly pea flowers soothe skin, reduces redness, rosacea & acne, support  collagen structure & moisture retention.
