Green tea toner - Question

[beautynista]

I have what may be a stupid question. Tea has a color, and I've heard of its use as a hair dye or a color enhancement. I use pure green tea on my face, does that mean that gradually it'll tan my face?

I don't want every part of my body to be a different color!

no idea..but it sounds very interesting...also heard that u can dye your hair with coffee..if you want it darker.

But tea for the skin..sorry no idea

no, green tea is not coloured. You might have that problem with more 'mature' black teas.. they have colour, but white or green teas wont do that

Thanks for the replies!Green tea isn't as colored as black tea definitely, but it still has a tint to it. Thanks!

Green tea is not colored, but it would tan if you were using black tea

I think if you use green tea for face as a toner

nothing bad will happen because green tea is

full of healthy antioxidants.

i use green tea on my face and its a skin soother. So if your skin is irritated its great, It def doesnt color your skin though

Hhmmmm....never heard that one before. I don't think green tea would hurt anything.
