i was wondering how effective using tea would be as a facial mist?
for e.g. i bought today a beautifying skin purifying tea including:
red clover, nettle leaves, dandelion leaves, burdock root, chamomile, lemon balm, lemon peel and natural lemon flavour.
would it work on the outside like it would on the inside?
thanks!

i love the idea of using edible things for my skin.. as though something you can't eat shouldn't be applied topically in the first place.. but i admit i do use Clarins and Nivea etc also for now :/ -
