Matcha Green Tea Butter is produced from the micro fine powder of ground Green Tea Leaves (Camellia Sinensis). The leaves are dried and then ground into Matcha Green Tea Leaf Powder. Used by Asian philosophers and poets for over 1200 years in rolled cakes and elixirs, Matcha is also valued for use in cosmetics and toiletries due to its high content of Polyphenols, Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCg), and Xanthines.
Green Tea can protect the skin from aging and serious damage in general from the sun's UVB rays. Xanthines present in Matcha, such as Caffeine and Theobromine, have natural anti-inflammatory, anti-cellulite and anti-irritancy effects. When a non-covalent bond forms between a Xanthine and Polyphenol, the skin-protecting characteristics are greatly enhanced. Now add in the fact that EGCg is an antioxidant that is 20 times stronger than Tocopherol and over 65 times stronger in antioxidant properties than the average fruit or vegetable, while also being an insatiable free radical scavenger, and it is plain to see the skin protection potential that the active ingredients in Matcha provide.
Green Tea Leaf powder is blended with a proprietary blend of Hydrogenated Vegetable Oils to produce a butter-like material suitable for use in cosmetics and toiletries. Matcha Green Tea Butter may be used in body care, soaps, facial creams, lotions and sunscreens to impart moisturization, particularly for dry, damaged skin (i.e. eczema, psoriasis and mastaligia.)
Usage Levels: May be used at up to 10% in skin care formulations. Up to 3% in hand and foot care products. Up to 10% in lipsticks and balms, nail treatments and after-sun products. In OTC products, may be used at up to 10% for topical ointments. In soaps at up to 5%. May be packaged 100% pure as a body or lip balm.
Appearance: Green soft butter (fat) whose color may range from deep beige with a tinge of green to full green. As with all natural products, it’s not possible to obtain the same color or aroma with each batch. Odor: Characteristic vegetable.
SAP value: 175-200. Melting point: 40-50 deg. C. INCI: Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil (and) Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (and) Camellia Sinensis Leaf Powder.

I had never tried Matcha Green Tea butter so I asked for a sample with my order to try. It is a nice, soft and mild butter with a mild scent. It smells exactly like green tea, which is honestly not my favorite smell, but it is mild enough that I can combine it with other products and basically cover it! My mother loves green tea, and loves the smell of it! I think it would be great as an additive to a main butter (like shea) in a cream to help boost the anti-oxidant value of the cream although it is soft enough to be used on it's own as well. It seems to soothe skin, especially stressed skin, and help it heal quickly.

When they say Matcha Green Tea, they mean Matcha Green Tea. This smells Exactly like any green tea infused food or desert you would order from a Japanese store. It is a smooth and creamy butter, it goes on clear (even though it's green in color), and it leaves you smelling like just a hint of Matcha Green Tea. It's really delightful. I ordered some the other day because of how good the sample was. Great product as usual Camden Grey.

I have this nearby for my skin and hair ends. I've had nicks on my skin and with time this helps heal them up with no scaring.

I'm a big fan of butters and to know that there was a green tea one was music to my ears. I'm currently researching more on the benefits of green tea on the skin, so I'm thankful to have found this butter. It is really soft and has a mild scent, perfect for blending with other fragrances, oils, and butters. Very creamy and easy to spread over the skin. I look forward to seeing what it will do for my hair!

Bought a sample of this, since my skin is sensitive and rosacea can be aggravated by a lot of things. After the first use, I noticed that my skin had "calmed down" - the redness was lessened, and my skin no longer felt tight and itchy. Over the next few days, the redness faded gradually; after using it for 5 days, it's gone. The scent is very mild and pleasant, too. I'll definitely be back for more.
