Black Tea Skincare Options

Sometimes, I do find it hard to determine which skincare products go well with my skin. However, I’m quite bold in terms of trying out new ones that seem to offer workable results with limited risks. Going for the trusted ingredients may be the best way to gauge which ones will be safe to apply on an otherwise very picky of skin types.
I talked about Black Tea on the last product feature and now I came across two new ones that may be worth the look.
I love drinking black tea but I do wonder if its truly a good bet for skincare, too.

Fresh Black Tea Instant Perfecting Mask, with its velvety whipped texture, immediately reveals softer, more supple, younger-looking skin. Skin is left healthier looking and more radiant.

Black Tea Age Delay Cream
Fresh Black Tea Age-Delay Face Cream combines natural ingredients with cutting-edge technology to visibly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It’s formulated with collagen-boosting lychee, proven to strengthen the skin’s structure and firm the complexion to restore youthful contours and promote cell regeneration, resulting in softer, smoother skin. It also protects the skin against pollution with black tea and provides intense hydration and moisture.
Though I’m not the type who uses a facial mask, I’m more than willing to give it a go. I’ve always wondered what good it’ll do for my skin. When I was younger (highschool days), I had used one variety, but I can’t remember what it was, once. It wasn’t enough to determine its viability or effectiveness. I have yet to conduct another experiment to see if these sort of skincare will be worth the effort and time. The Black Tea Instant Perfecting Mask offers what other moisturisers are offering. I can’t help but wonder if its just a wasteful redundancy in a skincare regimen. Like I said, I have to see for myself if my theories can be proven wrong.
As for creams, nothing beats a boost in hydration and moisture for the skin. Creams may prove to be uncomfortable upon application but some do the work real well. The Black Tea Age-Delay Cream promises to reduce fine lines and wrinkles (noting the collagen-boosting lychee ingridient), things that women my age may be awfully concerned with. We can’t stop aging after all. As I’ve repeatedly said, we can only aid in aging gracefully — without resorting to go under the knife.
Do you guys use facial masks? Can you share your own experience? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
The mask is priced at $85 and the cream at $125. Both are available at Sephora.
