How to Get the Best Benefits of Kombucha in Skincare

What are the best benefits of kombucha in skincare?

First of All, What is Kombucha?

Kombucha is a fermented drink made with tea, sugar, beneficial bacteria, and yeast. To make kombucha, prepare the sweet tea first and allow it to cool to room temperature.

A scoby is then added to the sweetened tea to start the fermentation. The scoby is light brown. The word SCOBY stands for the symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast. The yeast converts the sugar to alcohol, and the bacteria converts the alcohol to acetic acid. This process takes a couple of weeks. The fermented tea becomes fizzy and has a little tart taste like vinegar. Longer fermentation time will make the tea more acidic and it will taste vinegary. Kombucha is like fermented food like yoghurt, sauerkraut, kefir and kimchi.
