​Surprising beauty benefits of tea bags you need to know about!

Be it black tea or green tea, odds are that almost everyone has a pack of teabags at home. If you're a tea drinker, you must know that these humble tea bags can also work great for your beauty rituals at home. If you're looking for some easy beauty treatments to try at home, then teabags can come to your rescue. Here's a list of some benefits you need to know about.

2/6

​Reduce puffy eyes

One of the most common beauty uses of tea bags is to reduce puffy eyes. The caffeine in the tea helps to shrink the blood vessels, which reduces the inflammation. You can use black or green tea for this beauty hack

3/6

​Treat dark circles

You can also use black or green tea bags (frozen) to treat dark circles. This will help to contract the blood vessels around the eye area.

4/6

​Anti-ageing face back

After brewing green tea, you can open the tea bag and use the leaves in your face pack. Green tea is loaded with antioxidants, which helps to renew dying skin cells.

5/6

​Healthy hair growth

Green tea is loaded with antioxidant Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG), which can have a positive impact on hair growth. You can add a few green tea bags in boiling water and once cold, you can apply it on damp hair. Leave it on for 10 minutes before rinsing.

6/6

​Eye infection

If you have conjunctivitis or an eye infection, you can apply cold tea bags on the concerned area. This will help reduce the swelling and calm the infected area.
