Skin Facials

Having a facial is not a luxury treatment, contrary to what most people believe. Facials involve steaming, to open up the pores, cleansing, to remove black and white heads, a face mask and a skin dehydration treatment with a moisturizer.

In order to enjoy a facial in the privacy of your own home,  be sure to follow some simply steps. Protect your hair by using a head band or scarf, placing it just above the hair line. Clean the skin well with a cleanser chosen according to your skin type. While the face is still damp, apply a scrub to clean the pores. Avoid this step if you're suffering from pimples or eruptions. Apply cream but avoid this step is your skin is oily. Apply a face mask leaving out area around the eyes. 

Take two cotton wools and soak them in rosewater, placing them on your eyes. Relax and wait for the mask to dry off. After 20 minutes, clean your face with water. For a good homemade facial, use sliced tomatoes or tomato juice for a cleansing effect on oily skin. The water from fennel soaked overnight is perfect for cleansing and brightening dull skin. Mayonnaise can be used to nourish the face and also to  the hair, as a conditioner. Onion juice prevents blemishes and mixed with honey, it can be an effective anti-wrinkle remedy.
