WARNING!
Green and Black Tea are bad for Perioral Dermatitis!
I spent about two weeks drinking lots and lots of green tea, thinking it would do good for my skin. I've always had PD, but that week it started spreading rapidly to underneath my eyes. I looked into green tea because it was the only thing I had been doing differently and it turns out green and black tea have very high levels of fluoride! Probably ok to drink every once in a while, but my PD definitely reacts pretty quickly to them.
