Tea Bag Tips

Tea does a body good - both inside and out. For years, health experts have been touting the benefits of tea for aiding in heart health and preventing stroke. But tea isn't just a miracle drink. Beauty experts are constantly calling upon tea bags for fast beauty fixes. Take black tea, for example. These handy-dandy tea bags are used for everything from combating puffy eyes to zapping those zits. Suffering from dark circles or puffy eyes? Soak two tea bags in water. Refrigerate them overnight. In the morning, place the tea bags over your eyes for around 20 minutes. Once you're done treating your eyes, wash your face. If acne is your issue, soak a black tea bag in hot water for a few minutes. When the tea bag cools off, put it on the pimple and leave for up to 10 minutes.
