#Video : The Ultimate Steam Cleansing & Hydrating Facial You dont need a trip to the spa to treat yourself to a facial. All you need is a half an hour and some key items to emerge with a clean, fresh, and relaxed face. Step 1: Pull hair back Step 2: Wash skin Wash your skin with warm water and a cleanser that suits your skin type to remove all the dirt, oil, and makeup, and pat dry with a towel. Step 3: Steam face Drape your towel over your head and lean forward until your face is a comfortable distance from the water—the towel should create a tent around the water, trapping the steam inside. Keep the towel over your head for at least a few minutes until your face is warm and flushed. Tip Add some fresh mint or lemon to the hot water to refresh your face and clear your sinuses. Step 4: Exfoliate With your face still wet, spread the exfoliating scrub over your face with your fingertips, using small, gentle circular motions moving outward toward your hairline. Be careful to avoid the delicate skin around your eyes. Step 5: Rinse face Gently but thoroughly rinse off the scrub with warm water. Step 6: Apply mask According to product directions, apply your facial mask, smoothing it on with your fingertips in small, gentle circular motions. Be sure to avoid your eyes and lips. Tip For oily skin try a mud or clay mask; for dry skin, try one containing a hydrating gel, or a cream mask. Step 7: Place cucumbers Retrieve your cucumber slices and lie down. Close your eyes, place the slices over them, and relax for the recommended amount of time that your mask should stay on. Step 8: Rinse face Rinse your face thoroughly with warm water and then splash your face with cold water to close the pores, and pat dry. Step 9: Apply moisturizer Apply a light moisturizer that does not contain retinol or exfoliating agents. Tada! And there you have your skin looking fresh and clean without spending on expensive treatments. This is a great maintanence routine to follow at home.
