Want a Spa facial at home?
An aromatherapy facial steam relaxes the mind, softens skin, opens pores for easy black head extractions or for better product penetration.
Bonus: Making this had my whole house smelling wonderful!
Ingredients:
1/4 Cup dried lavender flowers
4 Cups water
2-3 drops lavender essential oil
STEP ONE: Add lavender flowers and water into a medium pot. Bring to boil.
STEP TWO: Pour boiling water into a large heatproof bowl. Add essential oil.
STEP THREE: Make a towel tent over your head and the bowl with a large towel to capture the steam. Lift the towel as necessary to regulate the temperature.* Be careful to not burn yourself with the steam* Stay under the towel for 10 minutes to allow the steam to cleanse your pores.
Complete spa facial:
Step one: Cleanse 2x with facial cleanser.
Step two: Tone.
Step four: Facial steam for 10 min.
Step five: Blemish extractions.
Step six: Facial mask. (massage onto skin for 2-3 min than let sit for 10)

Set aside a night of pampering, you deserve it!

This is great, thanks! I always do this with Tea Tree Oil when I'm sick. I hadn't considered doing it this way for a facial treatment.
ReplyDeleteThanks for this post! I knew I had seen this somewhere on your blog, but couldn't find it. You guys need a search button. Thanks for your blog!
ReplyDeleteI did this steam today. I loved it! Thank you for sharing:) http://creativebliss-angi.blogspot.com/2012/06/web-wednesday-all-about-face.html
ReplyDeleteWhat facial cleanser goes best with the lemon toner? and are there any other alternatives to greek yogurt because it is not accessible to our country :(
ReplyDeleteDo you need to do this using dried lavender and lavender essential oil or is there a simpler way to do this? I am a college student and this seems like a good way to get rid of the blackheads that I have on my cheeks. Also how often should I do this?
