What you need:
- 1 kettle
- 1 large glass bowl
- Purified water
- Herbs or tea
- 1 large towel
- 1 face cloth
Fill the kettle with water and bring to a boil. Pour the boiled water into the large glass bowl and add loose herbs or tea. Allow to cool slightly. Then, hover your face approximately 6 inches above the bowl, or at whatever distance is comfortable for you, and place the large towel over your head like a tent, entrapping the steam. Relax in this position for 5 to 10 minutes. Those with sensitive skin should not steam for more than 5 minutes and should hover at least 8 inches away from the bowl.
After steaming, blot your skin gently with the face cloth and apply a high quality, natural moisturizer. For a full evening of skin pampering, exfoliate before steaming and apply a mask afterward, creating a mini-facial experience. This will leave your skin feeling refreshed, clean, and detoxified.
