DIY: FACIAL


This is the best way to take care of your skin at home. It is easy and 
and the time Required is 25-30 minutes. All you need is to Know your skin type and condition to get the right products for your skin.


Things you will need (based on skin type):

Gentle cleanser, e
xfoliating scrub, warm water and a towel, facial mask, basic moisturizer.

Procedure:
1.   Cleansing
Wash the face, neck and ears with a good facial cleanser to remove any grime or dirt. Don't forget to remove makeup with a makeup remover.

2.   Exfoliating
Using your fingers, rub a gentle exfoliating facial scrub in a circular motion on your face. Concentrate on the areas around your nose and forehead, work harder on the areas that tend to be "greasy." Rinse your face well since exfoliating scrubs tend to be drying.

3.   Steaming
There are several ways to steam your face. You can fill your bowl with warm water, dip a washcloth in and press to your face repeating 2-3 times or you can take it further by boiling water over the stove, then turning off the stove and putting your head over the water with a towel over your head, letting the steam seep into pores for a good 5 minutes.
4.   Mask
For oily skin, use a clay-based face mask. For dry skin, go for a hydrating gel or cream mask. Apply the mask, avoiding the areas around the eyes. Keep it on for 10-20 minutes (or, according to the directions on the product). Rinse completely.
5.   Moisturizing
       Smooth on a soothing, basic moisturizer over your face and neck.
