The effect will be the same, the only difference is that special devices will not allow you to burn yourself, and you don’t have to cover your head with a towel.
For preliminary cleaning of the skin, it is advisable to make a delicate peeling. This removes dead skin particles and mechanically cleanses the pores.
A good effect is the addition of herbs or essential oils to boiling water. For each skin type, you need to choose your own composition:
- for the fat type add lemon, peppermint oil;
- for normal skin - nettle, lavender and rosemary;
- for dry - rose and grape seed oil, chamomile and linden.
After the infusion of herbs begins to boil, wait a few minutes, otherwise you may get a burn. Wear an elastic bandage over your head. Find a convenient place, because you have to spend a few minutes in a bent position. Close your eyes, relax, breathe with your mouth open. Warm your face for about ten minutes.
