Secret 1: Beat hormonal acne with Spearmint Tea
Every month from ovulation I drink 2 cups of spearmint tea for 5 days in a row. (Get organic spearmint tea here!*)
Spearmint tea fights DHT, which oftentimes is the biggest driver of hormonal acne in women. By starting to drink it during ovulation, I prevent the monthly hormonal breakout from happening.
It works so well, I literally have a less greasy face in less than one hour after drinking it!
