As a teenager, my mother - upon seeing my spotty complexion decided to make me some 'complexion tea' for my skin. At first I was fairly reluctant, as any teenager probably would be but kept up with it and after a few weeks, sure enough, my skin did improve.

This tea is based on that recipe.

A blend of ingredients known to improve the skin, control oil production and help reduce the likelihood of acne, but with a little more action from Nettle  and ginger that will help to normalise, detoxify and calm various body process.

• Peppermint
• Rooibos
• Calendula (Marigold)
• Nettle
• Ginger

Steeping a tablespoon (not heaped, just mid sized) for 4-5 minutes is best for this tea, with water at boil. Milk not recommended!

For best results, please drink this tea once before lunch and once in the evening! Feel free to re-use the same leaves twice.
