Regular blackheads removing is one of the main conditions for
maintaining healthy and acne free skin. First and most important step of
this treatment is a steam bath. Why is such a procedure so important?
The fact is that under exposure of hot steam the skin pores open to
allow you easily remove blackheads. Regular baths increasing a turgor of
the skin by improving blood supply. Also, the steam softens the upper
layer of the dermis, and dead skin cells exfoliate easily. It is noticed
that after such clearing baths our skin better absorbs the creams and
the intensity of their exposure increases.
For this procedure you
can take herbs, essential oils, or simply do the bath with pure water.
If you use herbal decoctions or oil, the bath can provide best
therapeutic effect, contributing in the disinfection of the skin.
Steam
baths for the face are especially useful for oily skin. It is noticed
that after regular use of this procedure oily skin becomes fresh, pores
reduced, the scars left by acne smooth out. For oily skin the facial
steam baths can be done about once a week, time of the procedure may
takes up to 20 minutes. In water for the bath it is recommended to add
bay leafs, fennel, lavender, calendula, chamomile, cypress. These
recommendations can be used also for steam baths for a combine skin
type.
For normal skin this procedure will be useful, if carried
out twice a month. You can apply chamomile, lavender, sandalwood,
cloves, thyme, geranium, and other herbs. Time of procedure is up to 15
minutes.-By
