The New Antioxidant: White Tea (Camellia sinesis)

Green Tea has long been the darling of the beauty world, but new research shows that white teas is even better for your skin. Both teas are plucked from the same plant, Camillia sinensis, but while the mature leaves used in green tea undergo a heating process that can kill antioxidants, white tea is culled from young unopened buds and is air-dried. With more free-radical fighters intact, white tea is better able to protect your skin against the damaging effects of sun exposure, aging, and even skin cancer. Here's how to make this skin-saver work for you.

Drink it. Recent research demonstrates that white tea eclipses green tea in destroying germs that cause pneumonia, strep throat, and cavities.

Bathe in it. Make a pot of white tea, let it steep, pour it into your tub, and soak in the skin-soothing benefits.

Beautify with it. Try the white-tea infused products currently coming to market.
