If you already have all the ingredients mentioned above, you are ready to do a salon-style facial treatment at home! Here are the steps for doing your own facial at home.
1. Clean the face
Before starting any facial care procedure, it is very important to clean any form of dirt and oil that has accumulated on the face. If you use makeup , You can clean your face with makeup remover first because the remnants of makeup cannot be removed by simply washing your face. Don't forget to tie or clip your hair so that your face is not covered with hair or other things.
After that, wash your face using cleanser or facial soap in a circular motion from top to bottom so that the dirt on the face is lifted. Then rinse using lukewarm water. Then dry your face with a soft towel.
2. Scrubbing
After cleaning the face, the next step is scrubbing. This scrubbing functions to remove dead skin cells so that your skin can regenerate properly. You can use natural scrubbing ingredients from a mixture of sugar, rose water, and olive oil.
When all the ingredients are mixed together, apply evenly to the face. Then, scrub your entire face using the scrub in a circular motion. The forehead, nose and chin should take longer to rub because these areas have the most blackheads. Then, rinse your face thoroughly with warm water.
If you have acne prone skin, you should avoid scrubbing because it can irritate your skin even more.
3. Steaming
The next facial facial step is steaming or steaming. The method is quite easy. Get a large bowl or basin filled with hot water. Then, bring your face close to the basin for about two minutes while covering the head with a towel so that the steam is exposed only to the face.
The function of this steaming is to open the pores and remove dirt such as blackheads on the face.
4. Masks
Doing facial care is incomplete if you don't use a mask. This face mask functions to nourish your skin so that it makes it firmer, brighter and more radiant. You can make your own face mask at home. To really care for your skin, choose a mask according to your skin type.
Use apple cider vinegar or papaya for oily skin types, honey or aloe vera for dry skin types, and banana for acne skin. Meanwhile, for anti-aging, you can use a mask made from coffee grounds.
Apply the mask evenly to all parts of the face, except the eyes, lips and neck. For the eyes, you can cover them with fresh cucumber that has been previously stored in the refrigerator. Leave this face mask on for 15 to 20 minutes. After that, rinse thoroughly using warm water.
5. Serum and moisturizer
After doing a series of methods that have been mentioned above, you come to the last stage of facial facial. At this stage you can rub serum and moisturizer all over your face. When the face is clean and fresh, the serum and moisturizer nutrients will more easily absorb into the skin layers.
