Step 2: When the water on the stove is just short
of boiling, pour it into a basin or your sink. Lean over the
water, which should be actively steaming, and position your face
about six inches above it. Allow the steam to envelop your face.
This loosens clogs in pores. For more intense steaming, drape
a towel over your head so it forms a tent over the basin. Steam
for five minutes.
Step 3: Dab any moisture from your face with
a towel. Then, use your fingers to apply a mask for your skin
type to your face. Avoid the eye area. Lie down, close your eyes,
breathe deeply, and give the mask 20 minutes to work.
Step 4: When the time is up, use wet cotton pads
to remove the mask. Be gentle and careful to not pull your skin.
Pat skin dry.
Step 5: Pour a nickel-size amount of moisturizer
into one hand and rub palms together to warm it. Then, use your
fingers to massage the lotion into your skin. It may help (and
be more pleasurable!) to close your eyes and concentrate on the
contours of your face while you massage.
Step 6: Allow your now-glowing skin to breathe,
free of makeup, for the rest of the day.
