Chi Tea Organic Green Tea Liquid Extract: Antioxidants Boost & Cooling Help {Eat for Beauty}

Green-Tea-Glass.jpgChi-tea-extract.jpg
Green Tea is famous for harboring all of these antioxidants benefits. It turns your bad cholesterol into the good kind. It is an aid in slimming diets. It is a tonic.

The problem sometimes is that you do not have the time or the possibility to brew your cup of tea. Another issue is that drinking a lot of green tea can be dehydrating as it contains a good amount of caffeine.

Pop Beauty is a London-based brand founded by musician Sara Strand. They love color so much that they have named themselves after a key makeup concept, "pop". Says Strand,

"The Pop girl is anyone, and according to Strand, age makes no difference. It's just a mindset. "Pop Beauty is really for anyone who is ready to play, or looking for something fresh and funky," she explains. "The Pop girl wants to try something new and slightly edgy." The word "pop," besides its musical connotations, is a term makeup artists use to describe makeup colors that make the face come alive. It's the ultimate finishing touch, says Strand."

What Pop Beauty offers now is a collection of four lipsticks called Lip Lust that have super hydrating properties thanks to good old vitamin E but also thanks to a trendier ingredient, Hyarulonic Acid......
