Facials at Home
Facials should be a part of our beauty regime, not only pamper your skin, they completely relax your mind and body as well. Unfortunately not many of us can afford regular visits to the SPA, be it for financial reasons or just lack of free time. Here is a simple facial you can do at home and it will only take 30 mins of your time once a month.
What you will need
· Towels and facecloths
· Cleanser
· Scrub
· Mask
· Moisturizer
Prepping: Make sure you have all of the above, pull your hair completely back and use a headband or a scarf to hold hair out of your face.
Cleanse: Clean your face using your basic facial cleanser and warm water. Use circular motions with your washcloth to get a nice gentle clean. If you have eye makeup on, gently remove it with eye makeup remover. Rinse your face clean.
Scrub: Exfoliation is the key to smooth healthy skin. Apply a small amount of scrub to your face & neck and gently exfoliate your skin in circular motions, Concentrate on the areas around your nose and forehead. Rinse off when done.
Steam Fill your sink or a plastic tub with warm water, dip a face cloth in and press to your face, repeat 2-3 times. Relax for a few minutes while your pores open.
Mask: Find a mask that is best suited for your skin type (For oily skin, use a clay-based face mask; for dry skin, go for a hydrating gel or cream mask.); apply a good amount of mask to all areas of your face, neck and chest, avoiding the eyes. Leave on for 10- 15 mins or as indicated on the package.
Rinse: Using a warm wet face cloth, wipe off your mask. Be gentle when removing mask and pat dry lightly.
Moisturize: The final step is to apply a soothing moisturizer.
