Tea is one of the most beloved and popular beverages in many countries, and it is not necessarily intended for drinking. This amazing product has a large number of cosmetic virtues.
Shiny hair
Green tea may help your hair shine. It does not undergo such a strong oxidation as black tea, however, it contains more electrons in the leaves. It is these electrons that help create shiny hair follicles. You need to put three bags of green tea in a small jug of hot water and let it get cool. Then, pull the tea bags out of the water and apply the solution to the hair. Leave the liquid for 10 minutes, then rinse it and use hair conditioner.
Dyeing
If you are going to visit a fun party, but do not have time to go to the beauty salon for hair dyeing, feel free to use black tea for this purpose. It contains natural tannins, which can be used to give your hair a darker shade. Black tea can dye even gray hair. It is necessary to pour three cups of black tea leaves in a pot of boiling water and leave them there until the water becomes rich brown. After that, remove the tea leaves and let the liquid get cool. Rub the liquid into the hair after shampooing, leave it for 15 minutes and then rinse. If you want a darker color, repeat the procedure.
Eye bags
Tea is an excellent tool to fight with bags under the eyes, which are caused by the accumulation of fluid under the influence of various factors, including stress, alcohol abuse, allergies and hormonal disorders. Caffeine contained in tea constricts blood vessels under the skin, reducing their volume, which helps to get rid of eye bags. Take two warm used tea bags and place them on closed eyes. Wait for 10 minutes, then remove them and enjoy the result.
Sunburns
If you stay in the sun without protection for too long, you may use chilled and wet tea bags to get rid of sunburns. Put them on the affected area of the body for 10 minutes. You can also dip a towel in cold tea and put it on your skin if you want to process a large area. This therapy is helpful due to catechins in tea leaves which reduce the skin temperature by rapidly cooling it and eliminating the discomfort caused by burns.
