White Tea

Fuijan province in South China

White tea owes its name to the white fluff that surrounds the young tea leaf buds. It takes around 30,000 handpicked, sun-dried leaf buds to make only one kilogram of tea!

White tea is high in polyphenols and flavonoids (= secondary plant compounds) which are beneficial for overall health and the immune system.

White tea offers a number of cosmetic benefits. It has a stimulating and energizing effect, protects the cells and has anti-inflammatory, astringent as well as antioxidant properties.

This active ingredient is one component of our Energizing Complex.
