Benefits:
Matcha provides powerful antioxidants that help protect the skin from environmental stress and support a brighter, more even-looking complexion, while its gentle caffeine promotes calm, sustained energy without spikes that can show on the skin. Oat milk adds beta-glucans and natural carbohydrates that support moisture retention and skin softness, and a touch of natural sweetener helps balance energy levels for a smooth, steady glow throughout the day.
Skin Concern:
Dullness, low energy showing on the skin
