Tevara Green Tea Antioxidant Serum – Revitalizing Protection and Hydration for Radiant Skin

Elevate your daily skincare routine with Tevara Green Tea Antioxidant Serum, a lightweight facial serum featuring a potent concentration of Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract combined with nourishing Calophyllum Inophyllum Seed Oil to help support skin's natural defenses against environmental stressors*. This 1 fl oz (30ml) fast-absorbing formula delivers antioxidant-rich components while providing hydration that may help support the appearance of a radiant complexion* without greasy residue.

Made in the USA, this antioxidant-rich serum harnesses the time-honored benefits of green tea—one of the most extensively researched botanical ingredients in skincare—to help protect skin from daily environmental aggressors* including pollution, UV exposure, and free radical damage. The concentrated formula absorbs quickly into skin, making it suitable for all skin types and seamlessly integrating into both morning and evening skincare rituals for comprehensive antioxidant support* and hydration.

Green tea (Camellia sinensis) has been revered for thousands of years in traditional Asian cultures not only as a beverage but as a topical treatment for skin health. Modern scientific research has validated many of these traditional uses, with hundreds of studies examining green tea's polyphenol content—particularly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG)—and its potential to contribute to the appearance of healthy skin* through antioxidant and protective mechanisms.The high concentration of green tea extract in this serum provides these researched benefits in a convenient, daily-use format.

Antioxidant protection represents one of skincare's most fundamental needs. Environmental stressors including UV radiation, pollution, cigarette smoke, and even normal metabolic processes generate free radicals—unstable molecules that damage cellular components including DNA, proteins, and lipids. This oxidative damage accelerates visible signs of aging, compromises skin barrier function, and contributes to various skin concerns. Antioxidants contribute to defending skin cells*, supporting skin appearance from this cumulative damage* and supporting skin's natural resilience*.

The polyphenol powerhouse in green tea provides multi-faceted skin support. Research has identified numerous beneficial compounds in green tea including catechins (EGCG, epicatechin gallate, epicatechin, and catechin), flavonoids, and other polyphenols that demonstrate potent antioxidant activity*. Studies published in journals including Nutrients and Antioxidants have examined green tea polyphenols for their potential to help protect against UV-induced damage*, support skin barrier function*, and promote overall skin health* through various mechanisms.

Calophyllum Inophyllum Seed Oil (also known as tamanu oil) complements green tea extract with its own traditional reputation for skin nourishment. Used for centuries in Polynesian and Southeast Asian traditional medicine for skin applications, this rich oil contains beneficial fatty acids including oleic, linoleic, and palmitic acids, plus unique compounds like calophyllolide. Research has begun examining tamanu oil for its soothing* and skin-supporting properties*, with traditional use suggesting moisturizing and protective benefits* for various skin types.

Fast absorption distinguishes quality serums from heavy creams. The lightweight, water-based formula absorbs rapidly into skin*, delivering active ingredients efficiently without sitting on the surface or leaving uncomfortable residue. This quick absorption makes the serum suitable for layering with other skincare products and comfortable for daily use under makeup or sunscreen, ensuring antioxidant protection* doesn't compromise skincare routine practicality.

Hydration without heaviness comes from the serum's balanced formulation. Humectants including butylene glycol and pentylene glycol help draw moisture into skin*, while the lightweight texture ensures hydration doesn't feel heavy, greasy, or occlusive. This combination provides the moisture skin needs for comfort and function* while maintaining a fresh, non-greasy finish that works for all skin types including oily and combination skin.

All skin types can benefit from antioxidant protection and hydration. Whether you have dry, oily, combination, sensitive, or mature skin, environmental stressors affect everyone, making antioxidant serums universally relevant. The lightweight, non-comedogenic formula won't clog pores or feel heavy on oily skin, while providing sufficient hydration for comfortable wear even on drier skin types. This versatility makes it a valuable addition to virtually any skincare regimen.

Morning and evening application maximizes protective and restorative benefits. Morning use provides antioxidant defense* against daytime environmental exposures including UV radiation (though this serum doesn't replace sunscreen—always use broad-spectrum SPF) and pollution. Evening application supports skin's natural nighttime repair processes*, delivering nourishing ingredients while skin regenerates during sleep. Consistent twice-daily use helps maintain optimal antioxidant status* in skin for comprehensive protection and support.

The minimalist formulation uses carefully selected ingredients without unnecessary additives. With just eight ingredients total, the formula focuses on delivering antioxidant and hydrating benefits* without the fillers, fragrances, or potential irritants that longer ingredient lists often contain. This streamlined approach appeals to those seeking effective skincare without excessive complexity or exposure to numerous synthetic compounds.

Important: This is a cosmetic skincare product for external use supporting skin appearance and hydration*. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any skin disease or condition. For diagnosed dermatological conditions, consult appropriate healthcare providers.

Understanding the Top 4 Pain Points

Pain Point #1: Environmental Damage and Premature Aging

Free radical exposure from modern life accelerates visible aging beyond what chronological age alone would cause. UV radiation, air pollution (particulate matter, ozone, nitrogen oxides), cigarette smoke, and even blue light from screens generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) that damage skin cells, degrade collagen and elastin, compromise barrier function, and trigger inflammatory cascades. This cumulative oxidative stress manifests as premature fine lines, wrinkles, uneven tone, rough texture, and loss of firmness.

UV radiation damage remains the single greatest environmental contributor to premature aging (photoaging), responsible for an estimated 80% of visible facial aging. While UVB causes sunburn, UVA penetrates deeper, generating free radicals that degrade structural proteins and damage DNA. Even incidental sun exposure during daily activities accumulates, creating ongoing oxidative stress that accelerates aging. While sunscreen provides crucial protection, antioxidants offer complementary defense* by neutralizing free radicals that sunscreen doesn't completely block.

Urban pollution adds another layer of oxidative assault, particularly for city dwellers. Research has documented that exposure to particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10) correlates with increased signs of aging including pigmentation spots and wrinkles. Pollution particles generate free radicals and trigger inflammatory responses*, while also potentially compromising barrier function and allowing deeper penetration of pollutants. The combination of UV and pollution creates synergistic damage exceeding either stressor alone.

Blue light exposure from screens, LED lighting, and even sunlight has emerged as another potential skin stressor. While research is still evolving, studies suggest high-energy visible (HEV) light may generate reactive oxygen species in skin*, potentially contributing to hyperpigmentation and oxidative stress particularly in darker skin tones. The pervasiveness of screen time in modern life makes this a relevant concern for digital-age skin protection.

The aging acceleration from oxidative stress isn't just cosmetic—it reflects actual cellular damage affecting skin function, not just appearance. Compromised barrier function from oxidative damage leads to increased transepidermal water loss (dehydration), greater susceptibility to irritants and allergens, and reduced ability to maintain homeostasis. Protecting against and mitigating this damage supports both appearance and skin health*.

Collagen and elastin degradation from oxidative stress directly causes the structural changes recognized as aging. Free radicals activate matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs)—enzymes that break down collagen and elastin fibers. As these structural proteins degrade faster than they're replaced, skin loses firmness, elasticity, and resilience, creating sagging, wrinkles, and the aged appearance that concerns many.

Finding antioxidant serums that help protect against environmental free radical damage and support skin's natural defenses* addresses the fundamental challenge of modern environmental assault on skin that accelerates aging beyond what genetics and time alone would cause.

Pain Point #2: Dullness, Uneven Tone, and Lackluster Skin

Oxidative stress impact on skin radiance manifests as dullness, sallowness, and lack of the luminous quality associated with healthy, youthful skin. When cellular function is compromised by free radical damage, skin cell turnover slows, dead cells accumulate on the surface creating roughness and opacity, and the overall vitality of skin diminishes. The resulting appearance is tired, dull, and aged rather than bright and radiant.

Hyperpigmentation and uneven tone partly result from oxidative stress and inflammation triggering excess melanin production. UV exposure generates free radicals that stimulate melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) to produce more melanin as a protective response. However, this protection often manifests as unwanted dark spots, sun spots, and uneven patches that create a blotchy, aged appearance. Inflammation from pollution and other stressors similarly triggers hyperpigmentation, creating the uneven tone that concerns many.

Skin texture issues including roughness, visible pores, and lack of smoothness contribute to diminished radiance. When skin is healthy with efficient cell turnover, the surface is smooth and light reflects evenly, creating a luminous appearance. When cell turnover slows due to aging, oxidative stress, or other factors, dead cells accumulate, texture becomes uneven, and light scatters rather than reflects—resulting in dullness. Pores may appear enlarged when filled with oxidized sebum and debris, further affecting texture and tone.

The dehydration-dullness connection means moisture loss contributes significantly to lackluster appearance. Properly hydrated skin reflects light better, appears plumper, and has a natural glow. When barrier function is compromised (often from oxidative damage) and moisture escapes, skin becomes dull, rough, and tired-looking. The combination of oxidative damage and dehydration creates particularly pronounced dullness that topical support* may help address.

Age-related luminosity loss reflects multiple factors including reduced cellular energy production, slower cell turnover, decreased natural antioxidant production, thinning epidermis, and accumulated damage. Younger skin naturally has more efficient repair mechanisms and higher antioxidant levels, contributing to its characteristic glow. As these decline with age and environmental exposure, maintaining radiance requires more deliberate support* through skincare.

The confidence impact of dull, uneven skin extends beyond vanity. When skin looks tired and aged, it affects how people feel about their appearance and can impact self-confidence in personal and professional situations. The desire for skin that looks vibrant, healthy, and youthful drives substantial skincare spending, with products that deliver visible brightness and radiance among the most sought-after.

Finding serums that help support skin radiance, promote more even tone, and provide antioxidant protection against the oxidative stress contributing to dullness* addresses the aesthetic concern of skin that looks tired and lackluster rather than vibrant and glowing.

Pain Point #3: Skin Sensitivity, Irritation, and Inflammation

Reactive skin that responds to many products, environmental changes, or stressors with redness, stinging, itching, or breakouts creates frustration and limits product options. The underlying issue often involves compromised barrier function and ongoing low-grade inflammation that makes skin hyperresponsive. Environmental stressors including pollution and UV exposure trigger inflammatory cascades that sensitive skin struggles to resolve, creating Occasional irritation.

Inflammation's role in sensitive skin and various skin concerns has received substantial research attention. While acute inflammation represents healthy immune response, Occasional low-grade inflammation contributes to numerous skin issues including sensitivity, redness, accelerated aging, and various dermatological concerns. Environmental oxidative stress triggers inflammatory signaling pathways, creating a cycle where oxidative damage causes inflammation, which generates more free radicals, perpetuating the problem.

Barrier dysfunction underlies much skin sensitivity. When the stratum corneum (outer skin layer) is compromised, irritants and allergens penetrate more easily, triggering immune responses and inflammation. Oxidative stress damages barrier lipids and proteins, impairing barrier function and increasing vulnerability. Supporting barrier integrity* and reducing oxidative stress that damages barriers may help sensitive skin become more resilient*.

Environmental trigger sensitivity means modern life poses particular challenges for reactive skin. Pollution, harsh weather, dry indoor air, chlorinated water, and countless other exposures assault skin daily. Those with sensitive skin experience these assaults more acutely, with inflammatory responses to stimuli that others tolerate without issue. Providing antioxidant protection* may help buffer skin from these environmental triggers*.

The product sensitivity paradox creates challenges—reactive skin needs protective, supportive care, yet often reacts to skincare products themselves. Fragrances, essential oils, preservatives, harsh actives, and numerous ingredients trigger reactions in sensitive individuals. This makes minimalist, gentle formulations without common irritants appealing for sensitive skin, as they reduce exposure to potential triggers while still providing beneficial ingredients.

Redness and visible reactivity affect appearance and confidence. Persistent facial redness, flushing in response to temperature changes, visible capillaries, and blotchy tone create cosmetic concerns that can impact self-esteem and quality of life. While medical conditions causing these symptoms require professional treatment, supporting skin's natural inflammatory balance* and protecting against environmental triggers* may help manage everyday reactivity.

Finding gentle serums with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory ingredients that help calm reactive skin, support barrier function, and protect against inflammatory triggers** addresses sensitive skin's need for protective care without exacerbating reactivity through harsh or irritating ingredients.

Pain Point #4: Dehydration and Moisture Barrier Compromise

Transepidermal water loss (TEWL) increases when barrier function is compromised, leaving skin perpetually dehydrated despite drinking adequate water or using moisturizers. The stratum corneum's lipid barrier should prevent moisture from evaporating, but when this barrier is damaged—through harsh cleansing, environmental exposure, aging, or oxidative stress—water escapes faster than it can be replaced, creating Occasional dehydration.

Environmental assault on the moisture barrier comes from multiple directions. Low humidity (indoor heating in winter, air conditioning, arid climates) increases evaporative water loss. Harsh weather (cold, wind) strips barrier lipids. UV radiation generates free radicals that damage barrier components. Pollution particles can disrupt barrier integrity. Modern life creates constant challenges to barrier maintenance, requiring ongoing support* to preserve function.

The dehydration cascade affects more than comfort—it impairs numerous skin functions. Dehydrated skin has reduced elasticity, increased roughness, impaired cell turnover, compromised immune function, and accelerated aging. Enzymes responsible for skin processes function optimally only at appropriate hydration levels. When skin is dehydrated, these processes falter, affecting overall skin health and appearance beyond the immediate tight, uncomfortable feeling.

Aging and declining natural moisturizing factors mean older skin becomes progressively more vulnerable to dehydration. Natural moisturizing factors (NMF)—amino acids, lactic acid, urea, and other hygroscopic compounds in the stratum corneum that bind water—decline with age. Additionally, sebum production decreases, removing some of the barrier's occlusive protection. These age-related changes make proactive hydration support* increasingly important.

The moisturizer limitations emerge when underlying barrier damage isn't addressed. While moisturizers temporarily improve skin feel, they don't necessarily repair damaged barriers or protect against the oxidative stress that compromises barriers. Comprehensive hydration support* requires both delivering moisture (humectants, emollients) and protecting barrier integrity* through antioxidants and barrier-supporting ingredients.

Makeup and cosmetic challenges increase with dehydrated skin. Foundation clings to dry patches, powder looks cakey, overall makeup appearance deteriorates on dehydrated skin. The cosmetic frustration of poor makeup application often drives people to address underlying dehydration, seeking products that provide lasting hydration* and improve skin texture for better makeup wear.

Finding hydrating serums that deliver moisture while supporting barrier function and protecting against oxidative stress that damages barriers* addresses Occasional dehydration that conventional moisturizers alone don't adequately resolve.

How Tevara Green Tea Antioxidant Serum Provides Support

Antioxidant Defense Against Environmental Damage

Green tea polyphenols provide potent antioxidant protection through multiple mechanisms. Research has extensively documented EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate—the most abundant and studied green tea catechin) as a powerful free radical scavenger*. Studies published in journals including Antioxidants have found that green tea polyphenols can neutralize various reactive oxygen species*, helping protect cellular components from oxidative damage*.

UV protection synergy with sunscreen has been investigated in research. While green tea extract doesn't replace sunscreen and doesn't provide SPF, studies have examined whether topical green tea polyphenols might provide complementary photoprotection* by neutralizing UV-generated free radicals that sunscreen doesn't completely block. Research suggests green tea may help reduce UV-induced damage* when used alongside proper sun protection.

Pollution protection from antioxidants addresses modern urban skin challenges. Research examining pollution's effects on skin has investigated whether antioxidants might help mitigate damage from particulate matter and other pollutants. Studies suggest topical antioxidants including green tea polyphenols may help protect against pollution-induced oxidative stress* and inflammatory responses*, though more research is needed to fully understand these protective mechanisms.

Collagen protection may be supported by green tea's antioxidant activity. Research has examined whether green tea polyphenols might help reduce activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs)—enzymes that break down collagen and elastin. Studies have found that EGCG may inhibit MMP activity*, potentially helping preserve skin's structural proteins* and supporting firmness and elasticity over time*.

By providing *concentrated green tea polyphenols that help neutralize free radicals and protect against environmental oxidative stress, Tevara serum supports skin's defense mechanisms against daily damage that accelerates aging.

Supporting Radiance and Even Tone

Antioxidant brightening effects have been observed in green tea research. Studies have examined whether green tea polyphenols might help support more even skin tone* through various mechanisms including reducing oxidative stress that triggers pigmentation, potentially modulating melanin production pathways, and supporting skin cell turnover*. While results vary, some research suggests regular topical green tea application may help support more radiant, even-toned skin*.

Anti-inflammatory properties of green tea may contribute to tone improvement. Research has found that green tea polyphenols can modulate inflammatory signaling pathways*, helping calm inflammatory responses that trigger hyperpigmentation and redness. By supporting healthy inflammatory balance*, green tea may help reduce the uneven tone and redness that inflammation causes.

Cellular renewal support from antioxidant protection may improve skin texture and radiance. When oxidative stress is reduced, cellular functions including turnover operate more efficiently. Studies suggest antioxidant-protected skin may maintain better cell turnover*, helping slough dead cells more effectively and revealing fresher, more radiant skin beneath.

Hydration's contribution to radiance comes from the serum's humectant ingredients. Butylene glycol and pentylene glycol help draw moisture into skin*, creating the plumpness and light-reflecting smoothness associated with luminous, healthy skin. Combined with antioxidant protection*, this hydration support* addresses multiple factors affecting radiance.

By combining antioxidant protection with hydration and potential tone-supporting properties, the serum helps address multiple contributors to dull, uneven skin for a more radiant appearance.

Calming and Protective Benefits for Sensitive Skin

Anti-inflammatory mechanisms of green tea polyphenols have been extensively studied. Research published in journals including Nutrients has examined how EGCG and other green tea catechins can modulate inflammatory pathways including NF-κB signaling, potentially reducing inflammatory responses* in skin. This anti-inflammatory activity* may benefit sensitive or reactive skin by helping calm responses to environmental and other triggers*.

Barrier support from reduced oxidative stress helps sensitive skin maintain resilience. Oxidative damage to barrier lipids and proteins compromises barrier integrity, increasing vulnerability to irritants. By protecting against oxidative stress*, antioxidants may help maintain barrier function*, reducing the vulnerability that makes sensitive skin reactive. Research suggests green tea polyphenols may support barrier integrity*.

Gentle formulation without common irritants makes this serum suitable for sensitive skin. No added fragrance, no essential oils, no harsh actives at irritating concentrations—the minimalist formula delivers benefits without the ingredients that frequently trigger reactions. The lightweight texture absorbs quickly without requiring prolonged rubbing that can irritate sensitive skin.

Tamanu oil's traditional use for sensitive or challenged skin provides complementary support. While rigorous clinical research is limited, traditional use across Polynesian and Asian cultures for various skin applications suggests gentle, supportive properties. The fatty acid profile may help nourish without irritating*, making it appropriate for incorporation into sensitive skin formulations.

By providing *anti-inflammatory antioxidants in a gentle, minimalist formula, the serum may help calm and protect reactive skin while avoiding common sensitizing ingredients.

Hydration and Barrier Support

Humectant hydration from butylene glycol and pentylene glycol provides the serum's moisture-delivery mechanism. These ingredients draw water from the environment and deeper skin layers into the stratum corneum*, helping improve skin hydration* and plumpness. The lightweight humectant approach provides moisture without occlusive heaviness, suitable for all skin types.

Rapid absorption ensures hydrating and antioxidant ingredients penetrate efficiently rather than sitting on the surface. The water-based formula with appropriate texture-modifying ingredients creates viscosity that spreads easily while absorbing quickly*, delivering actives where they're needed. This efficient delivery maximizes benefits while maintaining comfortable wear.

Layering compatibility makes this serum practical for comprehensive routines. The quick absorption and non-greasy finish mean it layers well under heavier moisturizers, sunscreen, or makeup without pilling or interfering with subsequent products. This versatility ensures antioxidant and hydration benefits* don't require compromising other essential skincare steps.

Twice-daily hydration from morning and evening application maintains consistent moisture support. While moisturizers seal in hydration, serums deliver it, making this an important step in comprehensive hydration strategies. Regular application helps maintain optimal skin moisture levels* that support barrier function, comfortable feel, and healthy appearance.

By delivering *humectant hydration efficiently while providing antioxidant protection, the serum addresses both immediate moisture needs and underlying factors (oxidative stress) that compromise moisture retention.

Understanding Key Ingredients

Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Extract

Green tea comes from the Camellia sinensis plant—the same plant producing black, white, and oolong teas, differentiated by processing methods. Green tea undergoes minimal oxidation during processing, preserving high levels of polyphenol antioxidants, particularly catechins.

EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate) is the most abundant and studied catechin in green tea, responsible for much of its antioxidant activity. Research has examined EGCG extensively, with studies published in Archives of Dermatological Research, Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, and other dermatological journals investigating its potential skin benefits*.

Research on topical green tea has examined various applications including photoprotection, anti-inflammatory effects, and potential impacts on skin aging processes. While more research is needed, existing studies suggest concentrated green tea extracts applied topically may provide meaningful antioxidant benefits* and help support skin health*.

Polyphenol stability in formulations requires careful formulation and storage. Antioxidants can degrade with light, air, and heat exposure, which is why proper packaging and storage matter for maintaining product efficacy. Consumers should use products within recommended timeframes and store appropriately.

Calophyllum Inophyllum (Tamanu) Seed Oil

Tamanu oil comes from nuts of the tamanu tree (Calophyllum inophyllum), native to Southeast Asia and Pacific islands. Traditional use in Polynesian, Melanesian, and Asian cultures for skin applications spans centuries, with folk medicine valuing it for various skin concerns.

Research on tamanu oil is limited compared to green tea but emerging. Studies have begun examining its composition—rich in fatty acids, calophyllolide, and other compounds—and potential skin benefits. Preliminary research suggests possible anti-inflammatory and skin-conditioning properties*, though more clinical studies are needed.

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract is the powerhouse active in this formula. It is naturally rich in polyphenols, specifically EGCG (Epigallocatechin Gallate). These compounds provide potent antioxidant activity that helps protect the skin’s surface from environmental stressors, such as pollution and UV exposure, supporting overall skin health and vitality.

Calophyllum Inophyllum (Tamanu) Seed Oil is included for its deep nourishing properties. It is rich in beneficial fatty acids that condition the skin. Traditionally used for skin support, Tamanu oil helps maintain moisture levels and may support the appearance of a smooth, healthy complexion, making it a soothing addition to the antioxidant base.

Your skin faces daily oxidative stress from the environment. This serum uses Camellia Sinensis to provide a shield of antioxidants. Regular use helps neutralize surface free radicals before they can impact the skin’s appearance. This support is crucial for maintaining a youthful look and preventing the visible signs of premature aging caused by environmental damage.

Yes. While it is an antioxidant treatment, the base features Butylene Glycol and Pentylene Glycol. These are effective humectants that draw moisture into the skin. They work alongside the botanicals to ensure the serum provides lightweight, non-greasy hydration that keeps the skin feeling plump and refreshed throughout the day.

Camellia Sinensis is the botanical name for the tea plant. In skincare, the leaf extract is prized not just for antioxidants, but for its soothing properties. It helps comfort the skin and is extensively researched for its ability to support skin health, making it a "superfood" ingredient for your face.

This formula is designed to be gentle. It avoids harsh additives and relies on the soothing nature of Green Tea and Tamanu Oil. Additionally, Pentylene Glycol serves as a skin-conditioning agent with antimicrobial properties, helping to preserve the formula without the need for aggressive synthetic preservatives that often irritate sensitive skin types.

Polyphenols are the active micronutrients found in our Green Tea Extract. When applied topically, they act as scavengers for oxidative stress. They help support the skin's natural defense mechanisms against external aggressors, contributing to a brighter, more resilient-looking complexion over time.

Because of its lightweight texture—achieved with Acrylate/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylates Crosspolymer—this serum should be applied after cleansing and toning, but before heavier moisturizers or oils. Its fast-absorbing nature allows it to layer perfectly under sunscreen in the morning or night cream in the evening.

Not at all. The formula utilizes 1,2-Hexanediol and Butylene Glycol to enhance texture and penetration. These ingredients ensure the serum glides on smoothly and absorbs quickly without leaving a sticky or greasy residue, making it comfortable for wear under makeup or alone.

Even treatment products need to support the moisture barrier. Ingredients like Tamanu Oil and humectants prevent the skin from drying out, which is often a side effect of potent actives. By balancing the Green Tea with moisture-binding agents, this serum ensures your skin remains balanced, soft, and conditioned while receiving antioxidant care.
