The Basic Home Facial Treatment
Going to a spa is nice, but we don't always
have the time. And doing a facial at home is not as expensive, nor
is it complicated. If you know the basic purposes- which are to
cleanse and soften the skin, and the procedures involved, all you'll
need are a few products and things that are already there in your
home.
The first step is to cleanse your face. How you do this is really a
matter of choice, and sometimes, budget. There are literally
hundreds of facial cleansers on the market, for every type of skin,
but the prices can get quite steep. If you're going to invest in a
commercial cleanser, do some surfing for reports from magazines like
"In Style", which do surveys and performance comparisons of the
leading sellers. Otherwise, go with a basic soap that does not dry
and tighten the skin. Many women choose organic soaps that contain
goats' milk, which is less drying, and honey, which can help to
retain moisture.

Next, you'll need to apply an exfoliating scrub specifically for
the face, and your skin type. Exfoliating the skin removes dead
cells, opening up black heads, bringing natural oils to the surface,
and allowing oxygen to reach the new skin. Depending on your skin
type, you may need to exfoliate once a week for dry skin, twice for
combination oily/normal, or three times for oily. |
After you have rinsed off the exfoliating
cleanser with water, you're ready to steam your pores clean. Skip
the commercial machines, and use a low bowl of water that has
boiled, with a towel to create a tent over you head. Place your face
about one foot above the bowl and hold it there for 10 minutes. If
it feels like your skin is burning, you're too close. This will open
up your pores and help get rid of blackheads and pimples. Those with
super oily skin, and excessive blemishes, should try a ten minute
steam treatment every night. Splash your face with tepid water, and
pat dry. Never use hot or cold, as it can damage capillaries in your
skin.
Apply your choice of moisturizer, while the skin is still freshly
damp. All skin types can benefit from moisturizers, although they
should be the kind meant for your specific skin type. Moisturizer
seals in moisture, and also attracts moisture to the skin. If your
face feels taut, the skin is not moist. But overuse should be
avoided as well, since it will clog pours and cause blemishes.
