When we think of skincare, we picture "something we apply." But in recent years, the idea of "inner care" — supporting the skin through what we eat and drink — has been spreading.
About the Components in Matcha
Because matcha is made by grinding whole tea leaves into powder to drink, a defining feature is that you take in not only the components that dissolve into hot water but also those contained in the leaf itself. A representative example is a type of polyphenol known as "catechin."
Matcha also contains plant-derived components such as vitamin C, vitamin E, and beta-carotene. These are familiar nutrients to us, also found in vegetables and fruits.
The Meaning of the Word "Antioxidant"
"Antioxidant" means, quite literally, "to resist oxidation." Simply by being alive, our bodies are exposed to the process of oxidation, and antioxidant components are known for their action of easing it. This is something spoken of as a general property of food components, and does not guarantee any specific effect.
What Matters Is "Keeping It Up"
It's not a story of drinking one cup and your skin changes. Just like continuing to eat vegetables, it's about comfortably folding foods that contain antioxidant components into your daily habits. That is the idea behind inner care.
Bringing "Drinkable Skincare" Into Your Everyday
There's no need to do anything special. Try swapping your usual cup of coffee or juice for a Matcha Latte. With just that, the habit of inner care begins — with no strain at all.
