green tea extract
Green tea extract (Camellia Sinensis Extract) – antioxidant cell protection from controlled organic cultivation
Green tea extract has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and regulating effects – ideal for sensitive, impure skin, first wrinkles and environmental pollution.
Introduction / Brief description
Green tea extract (INCI: Camellia Sinensis Extract ) is one of the oldest and most proven medicinal plants in the world. In natural cosmetics, the extract impresses with its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and regulating properties. Green tea unfolds its full effect – soothing, protective, and regenerating – especially on sensitive or blemished skin.
Origin & Production
Green tea comes from the fresh leaves of the Camellia sinensis tea plant. Our myrto formulations use a particularly high-quality extract from certified organic cultivation. Gentle processing preserves the valuable polyphenols and catechins – including the highly antioxidant epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG).
Effect on skin and hair
Soothing & sebum-regulating
Green tea has proven anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. It reduces redness, itching, and irritation—ideal for sensitive skin, rosacea, or acne. At the same time, it regulates sebum production and refines pores.
Antioxidant cell protection & anti-aging
Green tea protects against free radicals caused by UV radiation, environmental stress, and air pollution. It strengthens the skin barrier, delays skin aging, and reduces fine lines and wrinkles. Its catechins inhibit collagen-degrading enzymes and support skin elasticity.
Caring & regenerating
Green tea contains vitamins E and B2—important nutrients for well-hydrated, elastic skin. It supports wound healing, smoothes the skin's texture, and promotes an even, radiant complexion.
Use in natural cosmetics
Green tea extract is particularly suitable for:
- Soothing serums & toners for sensitive skin
