Green Tea Eye Cream Reduce Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Apparently I'm on a kick using green tea in beauty products. :) You can check out my recipe for a lovely Green Tea Face Mask right here.
Today’s recipe features green tea in a lovely eye cream that will help reduce puffiness, fine lines, and wrinkles. Hey, once you turn 30 the challenge becomes real dealing with all of the above. HA!
GREEN TEA EYE CREAM
INGREDIENTS
DIRECTIONS
In a double boiler melt together the apricot oil, shea butter, and beeswax over medium heat. Be sure not to heat on too high of heat or the shea butter can turn grainy. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the vitamin E. Pour into small airtight containers.
Alternatively to the double boiler, fill a small saucepan with water and place a glass jar in the water. Add your ingredients to the glass jar and melt the ingredients that way.
HOW TO USE
After washing your face apply a small amount of the eye cream by dabbing gently underneath your eyes and on your eyelids. Use a moisturizer on the rest of your face like normal. The eye cream is definitely best used at night so it has time to really moisturize.
BENEFITS OF THE INGREDIENTS
GREEN TEA
All the delicious antioxidants found in green tea can also help the skin externally by reducing inflammation which helps reduce puffiness and delay the signs of aging. The tannins in green tea help to tighten and tone the skin, and the antibacterial properties can help eliminate acne.
APRICOT OIL
Apricot oils is great for all skin types but especially those that are sensitive, inflames, dry, or prematurely aging.
SHEA BUTTER
Shea butter is a superb moisturizer and also helps to reduce inflammation. It helps to smooth the skin by boosting its natural production of collagen. This can help to reduce wrinkles and also to soften and nourish the skin.
BEESWAX
The beeswax is what creates a stable solid. But it also acts as a moisturizer and helps lock in moisture as well.
VITAMIN E
Vitamin E is an antioxidant which helps prevent free radical damage. It helps to reduce inflammation, repairs the skin, and is great for healing fine lines and wrinkles.
WHERE TO PURCHASE THE INGREDIENTS
If you are unable to grow your own herbs, or find ingredients locally, then here are some of my favorite places to buy bulk ingredients. Some of these may be affiliate links which allows me to make a nickel or two without costing you a single penny more. This allows me to keep posting great content for you. Thank you for your support!
