green tea mask for acne - #12727

Aasha

I am having this really frustrating time with my skin lately, and I've been trying to find a way to clear up my acne. A friend mentioned using a green tea mask for acne, and I thought maybe it could help me out. I mean, I’d heard that green tea has antioxidant properties or whatever, but I just don’t know if slapping it on my face is going to make a diff? Like, I’ve read a bit about how drinking green tea is good for your skin too, but is the mask actually effective? I even did some research and saw a ton of DIY recipes using green tea, honey, and lemon but not sure which one works best. Sometimes it feels like my skin breaks out at the worst times, like right before a big event, and I'm just kind of desperate. I’ve already tried some over-the-counter stuff but no luck. Has anyone here used a green tea mask for acne, and did it really help? Or should I just stick to drinking the tea? I’d love to hear personal experiences because I am ready to give anything a shot at this point. Do I need to be careful about anything special when using it? Like I’m worried about irritation or just making things worse.
