Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract is derived from the leaves of the tea plant. Black tea, green tea, and oolong tea are all harvested from this plant.
This ingredient has many skin benefits:
This ingredient contains polyphenols, a strong antioxidant. Antioxidants help fight off molecules that damage skin cells.
On top of that, the antioxidants in green tea neutralize free-radicals from the sun. This gives the skin some extra UV protection, but should not replace sunscreen.
Many components of tea have anti-inflammatory properties.
Polyphenols and L-theanine help soothe the skin and reduce irritation. The caffeine in Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract helps calm inflamed blood vessels.
Other compounds found in tea include: Vitamin Bs, linoleic acid, magnesium, calcium, iron, and zinc.
Research has shown both drinking Camellia Sinensis Leaf Tea and applying it to the skin can help boost skin elasticity and hydration. Studies also show using tea extract may reduce sebum, or oil, production.

Annoyed at the marketing
This isn’t a bad product, let me first start by saying that. Green tea can be wonderful for oily skin because it can help balance sebum production. But I bought this towards the beginning of my skin care journey when I wasn’t familiar with ingredients so I always had to take the brands word for it and/or just buy what was popular. This is marketed as HYDRATING and suited for sensitive, oily, and DRY skin. Sure, I guess if you have dry skin you can use it… but it won’t feel like it is doing anything. I used the whole bottle, questioning the entire time why I spent money on useless leaf water. If you have dry skin you don’t need this. Dry skin folks like me do not need to balance sebum production and this is nowhere near hydrating enough for my needs. (also, in my experience centella and/or heartleaf are way better soothing ingredients than green tea if that is your goal) For me, this product felt like a waste of money, although I will acknowledge it can be very helpful for others. I just wish that the listing I bought this from said something along the lines of “best suited for oily and combo skin”.

Why the word 'hydrating' is written on the package? because it feels like nothing on my face even after putting layers of it.
it feels nice when my acne is inflamed and actually doesn't make my nose and forehead oily during the day as I have combination skin.
i think is is better than the anua toner in terms of calming acne.
