Tea: sunburn remedy

Did you know that tea is a natural remedy to contrast the unpleasant consequences of sunburn?
Both green and black tea bags work well, thanks to their soothing properties: they prevent the skin from peeling after sunburn.
Leave the tea bags in infusion for 4-5 minutes and let them cool in the fridge. Apply the tea directly to the skin.
Tea relieves your sunburned skin, thanks to the anti-inflammatory action of catechins.

You can also add some tea leaves to water for a refreshing bath or apply it to the skin with a sponge or a small towel.
