Reduces Puffiness
While this is not a proven fact, cold tea bags have been used by women to reduce under-eye puffiness and is a very popular home remedy. Tea has anti-inflammatory properties and a small amount of caffeine that helps in reducing the puffiness and tightening the skin around the eyes.
May helps in reducing fine lines and wrinkles
While dealing with the puffiness, the cold tea bags also tighten the skin around the eyes. This in turn makes sure that you do not have fine lines and wrinkles that could end up making you look old.
Makes your hair shinier and adds lustre
Black tea is a very popular and traditional ingredient used for dyeing clothes. The dark colour is a great dye for the hair. Using cooled down black tea to rinse your hair after a shower will help keep your hair looking shiny and black. You can even use it with henna powder to increase its effect.
Reduces blemishes
Black tea contains antioxidants that help you get rid of free radicals and flush out the toxins. Using black tea in your blemishes may help lighten them and even out the skintone.
