@@Queenifying The Isntree green tea toner did help the oiliness of my face. For pores tightening, oil cleansing + hydration helped me a lot. For me, Hada Labo cleansing oil did a wonderful job in clearing my pores and most hydrating products helped to plump my skin, which helps to tightening the look of pores.

BENTON DEEP GREEN TEA TONER IS A HOLY GRAIL FOR ME. PERIOD. ❤️

My favourite way of consuming green tea is through my mouth. I suggest warmly drinking it. The health benefits are many and marvellous. My mood immediately improves and the brain fog disappears. Make sure the tea is good quality and organic.

Can you recommend a few green tea brands from affordable to higher-end? I see so many brands! I do enjoy RISHI green tea satchets.

All hail to the queen! Thanks to you i found my ultimate favorite green tea toner, the benton one! Been using for more than a year now, and i feel all the result you’ve told, I definitely fall in love💗

Thank you for the information. I tried the Benton toner based on your recommendation and I loved it for the soothing effect.

I love the fresh green tea natural fragrance u get when u splash the isintree GT toner on ur face. Ahhhhh so refreshing.

The first two (Benton and Isntree) are my intro to green tea skincare and my faves. Gonna get back to them after I finish what I have now. I also like klavuu green pearlsation pha toner. Nice soft exfoliation with a pleasant smell.

Thanks for all the recommendations. I love green tea. But so many products are geared to oily, acneic skin and mine is mature, sensitive, normal to dry skin. Your descriptions have really helped send me in the right direction.

Thank you for this wonderful video!! 🌟I have actually never bought any green tea products for my dry skin but you got me interested now.

The only green tea based skincare that i had tried was Innisfree Green Tea Seed Serum. I felt in love with it but since my budget is limited and there are so many new more budget friendly ingredients like niacinamide and cica, i forgot of how i love green tea. I do recently searching for new product with green tea in it and this video is very helpful for me. Although, i still searching for a fermented green tea based skincare that are budget friendly (everything that fermented are so freaking expensive).

Wanna try the Benton toner and Cosrx gel cream in the summer !!

I have been trying to decide on a green tea toner or essence, so this video was very informative. I now know that as I can afford the Amore Pacific, the Benton green tea essence will be best for my mature, dry skin. I am hoping that this will be a help to my rosacea.

The Benton serum is on my products to try 😍

Green tea is realy my favorite. I've tried both toner from isntree and benton. Love both of them, but repurchase the isntree one because its control sebum on my T-zone better. After that I layering with another hydration toner. Its works on my skin..

Green tea isn't my ride-or-die of skincare ingredients, but I feel like I've also not used too many green tea-centric products. Besides that Isntree toner, which I'm just the wrong skin type for. I've just started using the Sioris Essener, though, so it will be interesting to see how that goes

Kelly love this video. I love green tea. Except the Amorepacific green tea what one product you will prefer in all the products on the list?

I started with Isntree green tea, which was nice during our spring/summer heat and humidity, but definitely noticed it wasn't right for my skin as the seasons changed. I switched to Dear Klairs Daily Skin Hydrating Water, and it's been lovely to help with the extra dehydration happening through winter. It doesn't have as high percentage of green tea (by a small percentage difference), but has other hydrating ingredients that have really felt nice on my skin.

The formula reminds me a lot of Krave's Beet the Sun, just without the distinct scent. I understand though if you're not too keen about the alcohol :)

Love green tea, and I love the amorepacific vintage single extract essence! It truly is the best. I stopped using it recently to try something else that's more affordable, but after a few weeks I started to get more inflammation and redness and acne coming back and I lost the glow it brought to my skin. I started using it again, and the redness is reduced in just a few days and my acne calmed down immediately and no new acne has formed. As long as I can afford the amorepacific one I will prioritize it in my skincare routine.

After that I used missha time revolution Artemisia treatment essence for several weeks. This is also supposed to be calming and reduce inflammation/redness/etc. It didn't do any of that for me. In contrast when I first used the amorepacific one I saw a reduction in redness, inflammation, and inflamed acne in less than a week. And it actually gives my skin a glow. And when I added it back to my routine this week I saw all those things come back in a matter of days. In the past I've also tried the isntree green tea and bonajour green tea water bomb toners.

One thing to note is that with my super sensitive skin I suspect I may have more background irritation when using these other options since a lot of the alternative essences and toners have more extracts and preservatives and additional ingredients over the amorepacific one. And I think that could totally be why the amorepacific one works so well for me, because it's so simple and focused. Who knows what exactly makes it so good though! If I found an alternative that had the same ingredients as amorepacific at a lower price I would test that in a second!

I had high hopes for the Benton deep green tea serum, but It was just okay for me. the texture is so thin that it felt more like it evaporated quickly rather than absorbed into my skin, and my skin just felt the same with or without it.

Hi Kelly! Loved the benton one for years and have seen it support my acne prone skin with steady use. Speaking of toners, I would be super interested to know your insight on the Round Lab ones (they have a mugwort, nourishing soybean and birch deep hydration one) if you get the chance.

Kelly or any peeps, for before red light therapy which green tea product is best for red prone, dehydrated skin? ? I’ve been using the Innisfree Green Tea Seed Serum, is that good for RLT so I can finish it? My skin feels dry whilst waiting for the 20 mins to start RLT so will change once done and see what is recommended. I’ve even soaked cotton round in green tea for my face but not sure if that’s ok before RLT. Many thx

Klairs fandamental oil, Innisfree camelia hair serum

Do you use the amore pacific as a first step essence? Do you use it in lieu of SKII essence?

Can you use green tea with any skincare products?

I have oily-dehydrated skin, and yet I didn't find Kelly's favorite Benton Green Tea Toner or Keep Cool and Soothe Toner all that hydrating. Yes they're thin, super lightweight, and layerable -- maybe that's what she likes? But I didn't see any extra hydration.

I have oily acne prone skin. I remember my skin doesn't like hyaluronic. I don't buy products that has hyaluronics. I am thinking to try Amorepacific. What do you think guys?

Tried the benton toner, honestly it was meh, I didn't really feel/see any difference so it just seem like I am using water. Maybe I just need heavier textures and visible colors.
