INGREDIENTS GLOSSARY

Green Tea Leaf Extract


Green tea is well-known for its regenerating properties as it contains tannins, which have skin firming properties and it has free radical scavenging properties. As UV falls onto the skin it can react with chemicals within the skin to form highly reactive agents called free radicals. These can cause cellular damage and in the long term can lead to wrinkles and abnormal cell development. This material neutralises these reactive species, helping to prevent one of the causes of premature ageing.
