Pros cheap
easy
fast results
Cons none
Bottom line I read somewhere that for irritated skin if you get a bag of green tea, dip it in warm water as if you were making tea and then put the warm water on a wash cloth and lay it on your face. My skin gets irritated some times because i pick at it for poping pimples a lot so when that happens i always do this method and i really works! hope i helped :)

Pros Only thing that has made an improvement on my acne
Smooth skin
Better Moods
More energy
Low Price
Natural - no side effects
Cons None
Bottom line So I have the typical acne story, I've tried EVERYTHING! I had given up, putting it down to college stress, being young etc. but then when I graduated college, I decided enough was enough, I'm too old for this and it was time to get rid of my acne for good. I read about green tea and immediately started drinking 2-3 cups a day. (My mam already had some at home which was handy!) I also topically apply a teabag to my affected areas once a day and use it as a toner morning and night. It's only been a week and I can already see great results, my skin feels much smoother and I have way less (and smaller) breakouts, which fade quicker. I still have a long way to go to curing my acne but this is definitely a great start, I'm delighted to finally be getting some results and today I switched my cleanser to La Roche Posay Foaming Cleansing Gel in the hope that this will also help (It's gotten some great reviews) but basically you should definitely try green tea because even if it doesn't work for you, it is very cheap, healthy and doesn't have any nasty side effects. I 100% recommend this. Try it! :)

Pros Taste great
Improved skin
less acne
VERY healthy
Cons NONE
Bottom line It's great for you skin and is a very healthy drink, helps my skin in a lot of ways. As long as i drink it my skin doesn't look bad or breakout much at all. Very easy way to get healthy happy skin. It won't give you a dramatic change right away it'll take a couple weeks, 2 or 3, but its well worth it!

Pros - Tastes good(when lightly sweetened)
- Natural diuretic - will flush out excess water weight but will make you pee A LOT.
- Easy to make
- Gives you more energy
Cons - Doesn't seem to make a difference in my acne breakouts.
- Seems to be making my breakouts worse but not completely sure.
- Possibly dehydrating?
Bottom line I really only like drinking chilled green tea in the hot months because it's very refreshing. I buy the Limpton Green Tea which is pretty good and brew my own at home. I usually make a quart at a time and sweeten it with a few teaspoons of sugar and that's it. I feel like drinking this makes my acne breakouts worse, possibly because of the caffeine content, or maybe it's causing my skin to become worse BEFORE it gets better. I'll continue drinking it for a few more weeks but if my skin continues to break out like this I'll have to stop.

Pros Clears acne, period.
Works, better than pills or creams.
Different flavours available, cheap $3
The only thing that has ever worked for me.
Unbelieveable!!
Decaf available but I need the caffine! :)
Cons None, I like the taste of tea :)
Bottom line You have to give it at;east 1-2 months! I've read here people didn't see improvements and they only tried it for a week?
I honestly can't believe it, my friend said 'ugh this is horrible, do you want it?' A box of lipton caffinated green tea, I said 'sure, i'll try it'....amazingly within a week I really noticed more energy/ alertness, better sleep, so i googled green tea and people said its good for acne/ digestion (which we all know the insides are linked to the outside). Its been a month now of atleast 3-4 cups a day, yes I use the same tea bag twice, I like it! I also like yogi green tea. For some reason it just works, I usually breakout like a 12 year old 1 week before mother nature starts and WOW! I saw maybe 3-4 tiny things that resemble hope and not a crying spell that I usually get, don't want to leave the house and feel so ugly and I really cannot believe it, my face is actually acceptable! no new fierce breaouts, no big horrid blotches, my skin in slightly less oily, its some kind of miracle. Ok, I will honestly give it another month, if the before and during my cycle I am this clear (70-80%) I will jump for joy and update you all!!!! I do use BP at night every other night now, whereas before I used it x2 daily, and only lightly. Please I beg you all, go and buy a box for $3 and try it!!!!! Please! If you hate the taste, take it weak at first, or chill it in the fridge (no need to boil, just put the bag in cold water and poke it!) But try and drink it 3-4 times a day because I have seen results. Don't give up !!!!

Pros Healthy
Natural
Tasty sometimes
Cheap
Soothing
Cons It didn't show a huge improvement for me BUT::
Bottom line I drink atleast a cup a day and sometimes I actually use the leaves on my face but neither seem to clear it up to make a difference but there are things i like about it and recommend because I know that it does work for some people.
First of all I have no idea about the caffine or no caffine thing, I would recomment just buying it as organic as possible though but really I don't have a clue.
I don't recomment adding anything to it except POSSIBLY fresh lemon juice, because it can also be good for you and is less likely to mess up the tea.
uhmm oh yeah and if as for the antiinflamitory properties of it, i believe it does shrink the size of a bump or cyst so that's a good one, but as for the removing of reddness it didn't work for me, but all these are possibilities :)
