Cons:

Time consuming but very worth it.

The teas are the best things that worked for me. It has lots of antioxidants and things to make you healthy. But I did research and I found out that theres something BETTER than green tea. Theres some tea called Green White tea or just White tea. White tea has more antioxidants in it and the taste is somewhat better but similar to green tea. Oolong tea is the next best thing to the two teas. So much to choose from huh? like many people say, drink at least 3-4 cups or more a day also drink 8cups of water a day Dab the wet tea bag or soak a cotton ball with the brewed tea on ENTIRE face. This will prevent the break outs. Let it soak into your skin. Results are amazing. SmoothSkin! It also Heals scars and whitens skin. Sometimes I buy the teas already made. The best tasting brand with lots of antioxidants, called "Ito En - Green White tea" you can check it out on [link removed]

No results in terms of acne great otherwise
I have been drinking 3-5 cups of green tea a day for the past month and using it as a toner and have seen no improvements in my acne. I am 29 and have mild-moderate acne. While taking Yasmine my acne totally subsided but since I have been off birth control it is back with a vengeance. I was hoping to cure it with natural remedies and diet changes but nothing seems to be working so far, although I am not sure how long you need to wait to see results.

GOOD! (That's what I thought)
Hi! I started to take this thing because I read the whole 500 reviews or at least the positive ones, Im takin 3-4 cups a day , Its only been 3 days, I know is a short time but I haven't break out since I started, I read this thing could regulate the dopamine and control stress, I have dermatillomania because my axiety, I've notice after taking the cup of tea I feel with more energy but without axiety, I'm not touching my face anymore, or at leat I'm more conscious about it, so this ting is really good for me, tonight I'm gonna try mix tea with oats to make a facial mask to fade marks, I will update how everything is going. Sorry about my english Im not an english native speaker, please correct me if I've made mistakes :) UPDATE:Haha it's funny I said wonders about this Jajaja after a week or two taking green tea it caused the worst break out I,ve had in years, this thing resulted really bad for me, as soon as I stoped taking this my skin went back to normal

Pros:

Its healthy for you anyway
Relatively inexpensive
Easy to incorporate a cup or two into your day

Cons:

No noticeable effect on acne

I've been drinking tea daily since I was in my early teens, and in the past 5 or 6 years green tea has slowly taken over black tea as my tea of choice. I drink it plain, or with a little lemon juice depending on my mood, and I don't notice any discernible difference in my skin. Maybe it's because I've been a tea drinker for so long? I give it three stars because I will always recommend drinking green tea for its myriad health benefits, but as an acne treatment it doesn't cut it for me.

Pros:

Used topically, it helps quell inflammation and redness.

Used as a spot treatment it can sometimes dry out my zits even faster than BP--with no irritation whatsoever!

The antioxidants are good for your skin whether used topically or orally.

Cons:

It eventually turns your teeth yellow when you drink it.

It has caffeine, so if you drink it a lot (or even just a little depending on the meds you're on) it can actually worsen your acne and inflammation.

I used to drink green tea every day and I experienced no benefit whatsoever to my skin--in fact, i'm pretty sure it made my acne worse due to the caffeine (my doctor was the one who actually pointed this out). I don't know what the reviewer down there is talking about when she claims that green tea regulates her hormones...it's far more likely that she stopped breaking out due to the fact that her body finally adjusted to the birth control and hormones her doctor put her on... I like to use it topically, sometimes as a toner, sometimes as a spot treatment. It totally kills the inflammation on your face, which works wonders for any cystic acne you have. Seriously. Have you ever had a big red inflamed pustle/cyst on your face and then had to resort to taking advil to make it less inflamed and noticeable? I have. It totally works, but usually when the advil wears off the cyst blows right back up worse than ever. Green tea is way better, and sometimes it can help them go away or come to a head a lot faster. I'm not sure how it does it, as it causes no irritation whatsoever, but I could swear that it even seems to help dry them out sometimes. Green tea oxidates over the span of hours, so don't bother leaving it around too long. I leave it brewing in a sealed travel mug for a couple of hours and then use it as a toner after washing my face. Then I use it again in the morning (my travel cup is metal and so tightly sealed that it's actually still warm by the AM otherwise I wouldn't use it). Brewing it in boiling water and using longer steeping times increases the polyphenols---though this makes it taste like bitter crap, so keep that in mind if you're going to drink it.

natural

I tried this as a toner a few times, but it just didn't do anything for me. I found it's awesome for hair, though! Makes it soft and shiny :)

Pros:

It helps

Cons:

It's not a cure, it's an aid.

Get over the taste and get addicted now! I started drinking one day and never looked back. Try and drink a min of 3 cups a day.
