Your skin could use a caffeine fix too with these Matcha-infused beauty products
Caffeine rush

For the longest time, green tea, prized for its soothing properties has been used in skincare. Recently, its stone-ground counterpart has been making waves in the beauty world. Matcha is a type of powder that is made by pounding green tea leaves. Packed with antioxidants like catechin polyphenols, matcha helps to soothe inflamed skin, reduce damage from sun exposure, even out skin tone and stimulate the production of collagen. Because matcha contains 137 times more antioxidants than an average cup of green tea, it is no wonder that it is one of the hottest ingredient in beauty products right now. The compound is making its way into masks, toners, facial cleansers and makeup wipes. Here are some of our matcha beauty picks.
