Steam baths for deeply cleansed skin

Steam baths for deeply cleansed skin

Doing steam baths from time to time can deeply rid the skin of impurities, and thus make it beautiful and softer. To test this beauty tip, it's here.

I discovered this treatment a few years ago in a book of beauty tips that had been given to me. Since then, I have been taking tea steam baths once a month, as advised. It really feels good and my skin looks better!

How proceed?

1) Cleanse your face to rid it of impurities already present on the surface.

2) Boil 1 liter of water in a saucepan then pour it into a solid container such as a bowl or glass for example.

To purify the skin durably while protecting it we add plants to the water with recognized beneficial action:

--> Dry skin:infuse a sachet of chamomile herbal tea in the water, which purifies the skin and brightens the complexion, or with linden, softener.

--> Oily skin:plain and mint tea bags or lemon and orange slices will purify the skin to help fight sebum and pimples.

--> Normal skin:infuse sachets of chamomile tea. You can also crush thyme or parsley and put it in water.

Once the herbs are infused, lean your face over the very hot container, about 20 cm away. Cover your head with a towel and stay in this position for 10 minutes. The steam eliminates pollution, pimples, blackheads and helps fight against excess sebum.

After your 10 minutes it's time to stop this mini-sauna and dry your skin. It's the perfect time to make a suitable face mask or scrub, of course. The dilated pores allow the active ingredients of the care products to penetrate the skin well to finish nourishing and purifying it.

Apply as always, at the end, a moisturizer which will protect your skin.

Savings Achieved

These vapors are not mandatory, but it's a little extra to have a softer and clearer skin texture.

I recommend you give it a try, especially since it costs next to nothing. 1 liter of water, some herbs or slices of lemon and orange once a month is really not much.

Well it's sure that at the beginning when you're not used to it, it's a little weird. But I assure you that afterwards, you'll take a liking to this beauty trick that allows you to cleanse your skin and relax by clearing your head.
