Faifia Green Tea Facial Mask

Green Tea Facial Masks are One of the Best

I've posted the advantages of facial mask sheets in a regular basis. Briefly saying, these are very convenient, highly effective in moisturizing and providing nutrition to your skin, increases the ability of cosmetic absorption, and can bring better results than spa massages that cost around $70~$100. These facial mask sheets are designed for both women and men who have busy life with no time for skin care, staying at home mom busy with kids, someone waiting for special occasions such as wedding, parties, long time flight that causes skin dehydration, and/or vacation trips and list goes on.

You can think of facial mask sheets as a bottle of essence. This one sheet is highly concentrated with nutritious extracts and skin friendly ingredients. This is why you can see the instant, quick result right after applying this facial mask. You should benefit from using these facial masks 2-3 times a week depending on your skin condition. Unlike other wash off type facial masks, these facial masks has minimal irritation to skin and are safe to use.

In this article, I would like to share the benefits of Faifia Green Tea facial mask including its main ingredients and their functions to our skin.

Although there are many green tea products from pills to cosmetic products, there aren't many genuine green tea products containing green tea extract that certain amount is required to benefits our skin. While shopping for green tea products, look for the ingredients stating green tea extract or catechins or EGCG.

Main Ingredients of Green Tea facial mask

1. Green tea Extract

One of the main ingredients that Faifia Green Tea facial mask contains is green tea extract. According to several studies conducted, green tea protects from skin cancer. In addition, both animal and human studies have proved that green tea ingredients reduce sun damage. If you are exposed to strong sunlight for a long time like the recent weather in Seattle, applying this green tea facial mask or leftover green tea bags after drinking tea would greatly calm your damaged skin. How green tea can calm our sun damaged skin is by quenching free radicals and reducing inflammation instead of blocking UV rays. Antioxidants in green tea appears to reduce inflammation. Furthermore, according to a small study, 2% polyphenone, a particular type of green tea extract, benefits papulopustular rosacea. Particularly, a significant inflammatory lesion reduction was shown compared to placebo.

2. Glycerin

Glycerin is the most common ingredients used in skin care products because its benefits to our skin is greater than its costs. This helps enhance the look of our skin.

Glycerin plays a vital role in build up of your skin structure. Many cosmetic products contain glycerin as one of its ingredients. It has been used in wide variety of skincare products since many years. It plays a key role in layering of skin and serves for many other purposes of your health.
Glycerin can serve you in many specific purposes including skin. Some of them include:

• Glycerin is a non toxic product which has no side effects, when mixed with water and also with any other delivery system.
• It should not be used in its pure form as it has more water drawing properties.
• As glycerin has sweet tasting properties, it can be used in preparing food for flavoring. Unlike sugar, it will not increase the blood sugar levels in your body and it can also be used in cosmetics and other personal hygienic products.
• It is very useful in moistening the dry skin.
• Soaps made with glycerin are very gentle and do not cause any irritation for your skin and they are very fine to use on your children’s skin.
• It acts as humectant and helps in restoring the water levels in your skin and prevents dryness of your skin.
• Wrinkles on your skin mainly occur due to loss of water, elasticity and moisture in your skin. So, this glycerin mainly helps in rejuvenating your skin and restoring water in your skin.
• As your age increases, the resources of your skin start depleting and cannot be restored by your body. So, by using glycerin, your skin resources get enhanced.
• It is also used for soothing the symptoms of eczema [Eczema Treatment] and avoids the itchiness and dryness of your skin.

3. Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a natural substance that our bodies has. HA is found in human connective tissues. This substance occurs naturally in the dermis (deeper layers of our skin). HA helps keep our skin smooth and plump through its ability to hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. Hyaluronic Acid plays a significant role in the quick repairmen of wounds and other skin conditions.

4. Collagen

There are two proteins in our skin: collagen and elastin. As we age, the production of these two proteins decreases and this becomes a major reason for fine lines, wrinkles and aging of the skin. In order to re-grow these reduced production of collagen and elastin, many women go for plastic surgery such as botox injection or wrinkle removing surgeries and they also apply collagen containing skin care products. Cost-efficient method that I personally prefer to choose is to supplement collagen contained products. Although these products cannot permanently reverse your already reduced level of collagen, it can help slow the process of aging of our skin.

5. Carrot Extract

Our skin loves carrots. Vitamin A is abundant in carrots which contain antioxidants that are good for our skin. Antioxidants helps balance the pH of the skin's surface, making it slightly acidic. Slightly acidic skin fends off bacterial invaders.
