Your Favorite Matcha Powder Is the Latest Makeup Obsession

August 16, 2024 By Shev Lira

Here’s why you should start slathering your favorite matcha–not the drink, but the powder–on your face. 

Your Favorite Matcha Powder Is the Latest Makeup Obsession

You’ve probably been drinking green tea matcha lattes since you were old enough to order a drink at Starbucks, but have you ever considered the skincare benefits of the green tea powder you’re drinking? Matcha, once popular in lattes and mochi, has now become the skincare industry’s hot ingredient of the year.

Because matcha is ground tea leaves, it’s a potent source of catechin, a type of polyphenol that is also a powerful antioxidant. It also contains an impressive amount of chlorophyll (hence its green color) which provides even more antioxidant effects. So if you were to apply this powder directly to your skin as a mask, it would work to detoxify the skin and improve its overall appearance. Matcha powder promises to calm redness and ward off free radicals. While the benefits of matcha have been praised in Asia for centuries now, the western beauty industry is only just starting to take note of the super ingredient.

You can make your own DIY Matcha Mask by mixing matcha powder with a few drops of water or aloe vera. For those who aren’t into DIYing their skincare products, the products below are great ways to incorporate matcha into your beauty routine. Don’t miss out on this super ingredient! Your skin will thank you for it.



Alder New York – Matcha & Honey Face Mask

Alder New York face mask is made from a type of grass that’s a natural source of silicone, and of course, contains matcha plus other nourishing, detoxing ingredients such as French green clay,  honey, and horsetail powder. While the matcha brings everything to the surface, the honey will kill the bacteria and help lock in moisture.
