Green Tea extract is a rich source of antioxidants called Catechins which have powerful activity against free radicals.  Free radicals cause oxidative damage to fats (lipids) and skin cells, and are responsible for many aspects of premature ageing.

Green Tea extract also inhibits the activity of enzymes that are responsible for the break down of collagen - the underlying structure to the skin. 

By protecting collagen, the integrity of the skin structure is preserved.

• Rich source of antioxidants to help prevent oxidative cell damage
• Protects against collagen breakdown preserving the skin structure
