FACIAL AT HOME
Ok, already having everything ready start with our facial for normal to dry skin.
Before starting please tape or whatever you have chosen to hold your hair and you are not going to face in the process.
STEP 1:
Let’s wash our skin well or we use a cleanser, facial if you have an electric facial brush toothbrush would be great because they help clean out our pores in depth. Remove any excess cream or soap with water.
STEP 2:
Let’s use the tonic if you have a spray bottle use it all over the face and leave it to dry. If you have this type of bottle use cotton. Put it all over your face, I hate to rub it, do it as gently pat.
Another technique I use for tonic is to put a little in the palm of your hand and place it on the entire face and using my fingers like you’re playing piano, massaging all the skin.
You can make the one you stay comfortable.
STEP 3:
Exfoliate. Take the exfoliating cream that did and grease it across the skin, now with the tips of your fingers in a circle from the bottom up, rub all over your face but do not do it too hard because it can damage your skin.
Thoroughly wash all exfoliating your skin.
Use more tonics to refresh your skin after washing exfoliating.
STEP 4:
Mask. Now is the time to use the mask you chose, grease it all over your face and leave on for 15 0 20 minutes. This is where you use the wheel of cucumber in your eyes so you can relax and if you can put a little music would not hurt more. A full spa day at home.
After passing the minutes of the mask, wash thoroughly with fresh water and then dry your skin gently with a towel.
After the mask, you can reuse some tonic and wait for it to dry or aid to penetrate the tip of your fingers to flick.
STEP 5:
Eye Contour: use your eye contour
STEP 6:
Moisturizer, this is where we finished our facial, use your usual moisturizer, and make sure it is for your skin type.
If any of you are wondering where these extractions step? I say it is better not to do so because almost most of us do not do it properly and that could make that black or white point extraction worse if not well done.
I hope you liked this super TIP occasionally take care and pamper yourself at home helps us to feel and look beautiful. I wish you luck with this facial and feel free to email me or comment on my articles, your comments are always welcome.
And remember that clean skin is healthy skin!
