Pros:

Cheap. Can't beat the price at $3. Tastes good and its easy to get and doesn't cost an arm and a leg like all the other acne meds they sell.

Cons:

I don't know how well its working for me. Seems to have cleared up most acne but I'm still breaking out after taking it for around 3 weeks.

I really hope that this green tea starts to work better soon. Have been taking decaf green tea for about 3 weeks and have gotten like 1-2 big pimples almost everyday. My skin wasn't that bad to begin with but I wanted something that would be easy (after trying baking soda which worked but is a pain to do). Hopefully its one of those "gets better before it gets worse" type things so I'm gonna give it a few more weeks but my college graduation is coming up so I *really* don't wanna have bad skin for that. What I do is drink two cups a day and rub the tea from the tea bag on my face and let it sit for 15 min. I do that once or twice a day.

Pros:

Everything.......Green tea seems to cure everything lol

Cons:

Nothing

Look, tea can only have good results. After I went to bed, I drank a glass of green tea (no sugar or cream) and when I woke up my acne was much less red and smaller.

Pros:

clears up skin like nothing else!

Drink and Use ONLY Decaffeinated Green Tea! Caffeine will make it all worse!

Cons:

when you sweat a lot, you sweat green on your face. so I wDuld say don't use it if you are planning on going dancing that night.

I am 24 years old. I have now had acne for over a decade. This is amazing. I have tried EVERYTHING, and nothing ever consistently worked. This does. I haven't tried drinking it yet, but I brew the tea, and splash my face with it. Then I rub the tea bag gently over any acne. I let the tea soak in. Then I use a light face moisturizer, to prevent flaky skin. This works very well. I am really excited to start drinking it as well- I read some reviews, and that is supposed to work great! So doing both should take care of it for good.

Pros:

great for loosing weight clears skin almost instantly

Cons:

too much can make you feel ill

ive been drinking this for several months now replacing my tea and coffee with it to help me lose weight. i remember waking up the day after i started drinking it and my skin was almost clear. i drink 3-4 cups a day. try not to exceed that amount because it does contain caffeine and can upset your stomach. Its great for weight loss as it only contains 2 calories as well

Pros:

Healthy

Cons:

Can be bitter if not brewed correctly

I stopped drinking it for a while because it's really hard to keep up with it during the 2 months of the school musical rehearsal...I regret it, because my skin was really great before, and now it's just so-so. I am going to start drinking it more.

Pros:

Inexpensive. Good for your health.

Cons:

The caffeine may not agree with everyone. Not convinced that it will clear acne.

I'm not sure what to make of the many glowing reviews. I'm 25 and have mild but stubbern acne and have been drinking green tea everyday for at least 4 years. I actually drink both green tea and white tea (about 4 cups a day) which is supposed to have higher antioxident levels then green tea. I also brew the tea (organic) using the dry tea leaves not tea bags to maximise the antioxident levels i'm getting, however i have not found that it makes any diference to my acne or skin. Recently i gave up drinking it for a good 6 weeks and my acne is actually better, though it's probrably just a coincidence, acne has a mind of it's own, to be honest i've no idea what to think anymore...maybe i should try the tea bags on the face thing.

Pros:

Healthy
Natural
Tasty sometimes
Cheap
Soothing

Cons:

It didn't show a huge improvement for me BUT::

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 :)
