I started drinking this yesterday, and yeah, it tastes terrible. but i made a big pot of it and chilled it and put it into a pitcher so i can have iced tea whenever i want, it also doesn't taste as bitter. i didn't add anything to it, i just dealt with it. i've been chugging it so much that now i don't really care.
I hate its tastes more and more. I even created topic encouraging others to try it out. Usually I get used to something, but with rooibos it was different. I started to drink it and it was ok, but the more time passed the less I liked the taste. now it makes me sick.
have you added honey to it?
Just started drinking this tea 2 days ago. 2-3 cups a day, nothing added just straight up tea..I must say I prefer it to green tea and it seems to have even more health benefits than it. I'm excited to see if it gives me a glow or prevents any new acne from forming. I'll report any results.
I have the Twinings of London brand of this tea. It's just pure Rooibos Red Tea...Not sure if it's the same or as effective as the 'Get Gorgeous' brand or whatever, anyone know?
Also would applying this as a toner to mix with ACV be good? I read that some people use green tea to dilute ACV toners but it sounds like Rooibos would be great, if not better since it contains AHA and zinc. At the same time I wouldn't want it to clog pores. Anyone try that?
I was wondering if anyone could tell me what type of lipton tea contains rooibos, do all of them contain rooibos or is it a particular one?
Rooibos is a particular plant, whereas most lipton teas are from the actual tea bush (camelia sinensis). You'd have to look for a Lipton tea that specifically lists Rooibos as it's main ingredient. I would get pure Rooibos if you can, because it will be higher quality if they're not trying to cover up the taste with various flavorings, and you don't risk a negative reaction with an added ingredient.
Or you could get the "Get Clear" and "Get Clean" teas that people are suggesting, which is a mixture of plants including Rooibos.
just ordered 100 or so bags, hoping it works. i think my biggest problem is wearing a back pack, my shoulders tend to get it a lot worse. As for scars, since i cant stop trying to pop them, is getting bad, anyone have any remedies for that? Good luck to everyone and thanks for all the help...

To help stop popping go to: www.STOPPICKINGONME.com This site changed my picking life.
And please, please, please read every single page, especially the end where it talks about methods to break the habit (even includes the 12 step program!). It's meant to be read as a book, because the author wrote it as a method of recovery for her own picking habits. It's really long, so a lot of people stop reading after the anatomy section, but that last parts are just as helpful. Take breaks and bookmark where you left off.
Good luck!
