Queen Tea is a range of fresh and natural skin food inspired by Afternoon Tea. Tea is our main skin lovin’ ingredient, tea has been so many amazing benefits for your skin.
I was kindly sent the Morning Cuppa Detox Box which came so beautifully wrapped that I didn't want to open it. However inside was a very pretty decorated box which helpfully detailed what the product was and even better, clear instructions on how to use it - sadly, this is a tea you cannot drink but it is 100% natural, Vegan friendly and not tested on animals.
Inside the box are two 'tea bags' which you put into the bath. I always ensure there are a few inches of water within the bath before I put anything into my water. Once the water is run, pop the tea bag into the water which helps to release the fresh de-congesting blend which is designed to uplift your spirits. Inside the tea bag are Dead Sea Salt, Epsom Salts, Rose Pink Petals, Orange Peel, Lemon Balm, Peppermint Essential Oil and Lemon Essential Oil and as soon as you immerse one of the bags into the bath, the scent really does come alive and not only does it literally shake you awake and make you more alert but if you have a cold and need something to help you breathe, these are just brilliant at doing just that. The peppermint oil, though present, is not too overly powerful that your eyes weep, it is just the right amount.
To make the bathing experience even more special and knowing Cleopatra bathed in milk (yes from an ass but that is mere detail) there is a brown sachet called 'Mini Milk', which is again not for drinking, but a clever inclusion for that perfect imaginery brew! Inside the bag is Non Fat Dry Milk Powder, Oat and Cocoa Butter and it is designed to soften, nourish and moisturise your skin. You can use it with one the tea bags or on its own and it does exactly what it says it will do. All you need is 1-2 tablespoons of the Milk powder into your bath water, mix the water and the powder around and carefully climb in, taking care because the cocoa butter can make things a bit slippy. On the skin however, the feeling is just amazing and when dried, my skin is so soft and smooth, it is as though ive used an entire tub of body butter.
You can purchase this delightful box for just £10 here or if you prefer, you can buy the items individually along with many other options to choose from. So whether you want to relax, wake yourself up or need something to soothe your aches and pains, Queen Tea has something waiting for you to try and in my opinion, I need everything!
