Skin Detox Tea Recipe

[SunKat]

It’s no secret that our skin reflects our health. Diet, lifestyle, and the things we put on it mirror our internal well-being. Eating healthy, moving our bodies daily, and using clean nourishing products on our skin can help promote a healthy glow and a clear complexion. Just as it’s important to cleanse the outside of our bodies, so too is cleansing from the inside.

Herbs are amazing for naturally cleansing our bodies gently and effectively. They can reduce internal impurities and help strengthen our elimination pathways allowing organs like the liver and kidneys let go of overabundant toxins and sweeping clean the colon.

How to Make Skin Detox Tea

This tea tastes a bit stronger than the kind you can buy off the shelf, so if you prefer a lighter flavor I recommend picking it up at the store. However, if you’re up for a stronger formula that packs a punch and is going to last you a bit longer, read on.

Here’s what you’re going to need:

• 2 cups loose leaf green tea (I like this one)
• 1 cup red rose petals
• ½ cup honeybush leaf
• ½ cup hibiscus flower
• ½ cup red clover blossom
• ¼ cup cardamom pods
• ¼ cup oregon grape root
• ¼ cup dried orange peel (organic)
• ¼ cup burdock root
• ¼ cup dandelion root (not roasted)
• ¼ cup yellow dock root
• Stevia drops to taste or a very small amount of sweetener like raw honey

Makes a total of 6 cups of loose leaf tea which is about 250-288 servings of tea depending on how heaping your teaspoon measurements are.

Add all of the ingredients to a large glass container or tin, pop the lid on and shake gently to combine them evenly.

To Use

Add one teaspoon of homemade skin detox tea to a tea ball. Pour boiling water over the top and let the tea steep for 6 minutes.

Drink 2-3 cups per day for best results.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Drink this tea for 30 days and then take a break for 1 week before resuming. It’s very important to let your body take a detox rest otherwise you will tire out your body and the results of the tea may begin to reverse.
