Make a DIY Home Spa Steam Facial
Edited by Doug Collins, Eng
I would like to thank Emmy Weiss for the awesome video on How to DIY Home Spa - Steam Facial. I organized it into a wiki for anyone with a hearing impairment, or for those who just prefer to read the steps. Hope you enjoy it. :)
Steps
1
To start out, pull your hair back and secure with a hair tie or even with a headband
.
2
The steam treatment is wonderful for dry and dull skin, it rejuvenates your skin by loosening up the dry areas and by sweating, it clears out your pores
.
You will need some old dish towels, and a wash towel.
3
A large pot filled with water started to boil
.
4
5
Any herb or essential oil brand that you like, and a moisturizer
.
6
First thing is to let the water heat to almost the boil
.
We don't want it to boil completely as it will be too hot.
7
Pour the hot water into the bowl
.
8
At this stage, you can add any essential oils or herbs that you like
.
9
10
It's great for memory and it has a great refreshing effect
.
11
Allow your herbs and or oil to steep for a few minutes
.
Test the heat intensity by holding your hand above the bowl.
12
Take your large towel and place it on the table with the hot bowl on top
.
Use the smaller towel to wrap around your head and the bowl to trap in the steam.
13
For a Spa like an experience, you can turn off the lights, turn on the relaxing music and do some breathing exercises, stay for about 15 minutes
.
14
As you can see here my headband came off during the steam
.
It looks little crazy.
15
Your face will be sweaty and even a little red which will fade in a little a while
.
16
Pad off your face with a towel to dry, don't wrap as it will take away the moisturizing effect of the steam bath
.
17
Now, apply your moisturizer
.
18
Also, apply your moisturizing Lip Boom or a chapstick
.
19
Make sure to drink a plenty of water as to replenish what you sweat out
.
20
Notice how soft your skin feels
?
This treatment is great for dry skin.
21
So the best part of this treatment is that it's super safe to do even on a weekly basis
.
22
I hope you guys try it out, have a wonderful lush day, see you later
.
Bye.
