Cons:
Didn't do a thing for acne
Taste is Blah
So i tried this in summer 2011 for my acne and i was sure to drink multiple cups a day for a few weeks. Outcome - did nada for my acne. Green tea is supposed to be good for your body none the less but don't bank on it to 'cure' or 'control' your acne. Also tried this as a topical and it irritated my skin beyond belief.

Pros:
- Enjoy the taste
- Easy to prepare and use
- Reduces amount of "itchy" acne
Cons:
- Much of effect may be placebo
- Have to drink a lot to have an effect
Since drinking green tea, I think I have had less acne. I don't have any strong evidence of this, but the perceived effect has lead me to continue.
Also, sometimes I will hold the hold my up to deep and cyst like acne spots, it reduces the longevity and helps the healing of skin.

Pros:
Topically: Can improve skin tone + quell breakouts. But seemed to become ineffective after a while or possibly my acne got worse and it couldn't handle it.
As for drinking it: I'LL NEVER TAKE THIS AGAIN!!
Cons:
A COMPLETE NIGHTMARE. Made my acne 10 times worse. I'm 21 but felt like I was transported back to when I was 15 with horrible skin.
I took this for about 2 months with this best of intentions. After reading in countless places online and on this site about how this can reduce the activity of 5 alpha reductase, by concerting testosterone to DHT, I thought it could work not just for my skin but also for my hair loss. But my acne gradually got worse and bordering on severe. After about 1 and a half I had enough.
I don't think this was a case of me not giving it enough time or "it gets worse before it gets better"....it simply got worse and stayed worse. My hormones were raging. I began researching more and read other peoples experiences where they claimed it increased the activity 5 alpha reductase. And as soon as I stopped the worst of it subsided. And then I had great big purple marks from where the worst spots had been and they were just as bad as real spots.
I experienced increased sex drive and I also lost a little weight. I advice anyone who is considering supplementing on this to have caution.

Pros:
-I felt good about myself while drinking it?
Cons:
-It has a really weird taste, unless you mix it with something, which defeats the purpose.
-It didn't really seem to work.
Alright, I was expecting a miracle. I'm on this whole natural approach so I figured tea would be ideal. WRONG. It does nothing. I drink it like it's my job and I rub the bag on my face at night. Nothing :( But feel free to give it a go!

Pros:
Tastes good, good for flushing body of toxins, helps cure sickness
Cons:
I've been drinking green tea for about a year, and I binge on and off of it for about two months at a time, and then I'll get off of it for maybe a month. Whenever I binge, I experience a large acne flare-up after drinking it for a few weeks.
Delicious and healthy, but not the end-all cure for acne.
