Matcha contains high levels of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). This EGCG antioxidant has strong anti-carcinogenic, anti-microbial, and anti-inflammatory properties. The EGCG and catechins in matcha absorb into the skin to fight the sebum and bacteria that cause acne.
One of the causes of acne is the presence of P.acnes bacteria on the skin. When matcha green tea powder is applied topically, its powerful anti-bacterial property gets to work. One study showed matcha reduced inflammation and acne by 89% over eight weeks.
Zinc Oxide is the most active ingredient in Calamine Powder. This dries out the layer of the skin that has been affected by acne – this property is known as an antipruritic. Calamine Powder also reduces redness and swelling, and is also used as a mild antiseptic to prevent skin infections.
Many commercial moisturizers and soaps are full of fillers like water, fatty alcohols, foaming agents and mineral oil. These products may increase the volume of the product and boost lathering. But they are without discernible long-term benefits for the skin. At The Good Routine, we consciously steer away from these artificial, cheap, toxic ingredients. Instead we turn to natural butters while formulating our handmade soap recipes.
COVID-19 demands tougher skin care. At The Good Routine, we are trying to formulate handmade soaps and skin care products with natural herbs that are anti-fungal and anti-bacterial. Our natural handmade soap recipes are formed around natural ingredients that offer the best protection to your skin without harsh chemicals.
