Green Tea Acne Home Remedies?
I know green tea is good for your skin, but are there any home-made acne treatments you can make with green tea? I have loose-leaf green tea, and applying it after drinking my tea seems to help some… can you mix it w/anything else though?

Positive skin effects in the area of skin care have been found with green tea. Acne and eczema are two specific areas. Green tea is a great, cheap alternative to the expensive toners and astringents used for acne.
Green tea is used to make a concoction with other ingredients that can be applied to clean skin with a cotton ball. Some notice a decrease in the presence of acne by simply drinking the tea, even though you should be careful with the increase of the caffeine to your diet since this is linked to an increase in acne breakouts.
Olive oil can also be added to green tea to make a treatment for eczema.

try green/french clay, its very detoxifying and healing for your skin, especially acne, and it can be used as a spot treament (left on the acne overnight and washed off in the morning)
