Maija’s Beauty Tea Recipe

A Recipe for Tea + Facial steam + Hydrosol

 

Boost beauty with this DIY loose tea recipe. This plant powered tea will leave you radiating from the inside out.

A few reasons why this tea is so good for your skin:

Hibiscus and green tea are full of antioxidants that ward off oxidative stress from the epidermis and keep it glowing and healthy. Rose petals offer soothing properties that keep hormonal inflammation at bay, while rosehips are an excellent source of vitamin C.

Ingredients

1/4 tsp dried hibiscus petals

1/4 tsp dried rose petals

1/4 tsp dried rosehips

1/4 tsp dried loose leaf green tea

Instructions

  1. Warm a cup with hot water.

  2. Pour freshly drawn boiling water over loose tea leaves in a bowl and steep for 5 minutes.

  3. Strain tea into a different mug and enjoy!

Bonus skincare tip

Use this recipe as an excellent face steam by placing it in a bowl and covering your head with a towel while letting the steam gently open pores. Or after tea cools down, pour it into a spray bottle and use it as a toner (be sure to keep it in the fridge for no more than one week).
