5 Steps To Organic Skin Care Facial
1. Exfoliate
2. Steam
3. Mask
4. Tone
5. Moisturize
We recommend steaming at least once a week or until skin becomes manageable. We recommend boiling 3 cups of water and then steeping 1 tbsp of herbs. Bring the steam to a level surface and cover your head with a bath towel and breathing in the steam for at least 5 minutes. Rinse with cool water and then follow-up with your mask, toning and moisturizer.
