Let's begin!

Step 1: Cleanse

A great facial begins with a clean face. Use a gentle cleanser to rid your face of makeup, dirt, and sweat. Wet your face with warm water

Wet your face with warm water. Use an upward circular motion. Rinse with plenty of warm or cool water. Never use hot water.

If you use store bought cleanser, make sure it's oil free for oily skin. For dry skin, use a cream cleanser.

Want a natural alternative you can make at home? Raw milk is a great cleanser. Oils like olive oil, almond oil, or jojoba oil make great makeup removers that hydrate and soften your skin.

Step 2: Exfoliate

Want bright, energized looking skin? Exfoliating will get you there. Exfoliates slough off dead skin.

Apply scrub with gentle circular motions. Rinse with lukewarm water. Pay special attention to the areas around your eyes and nose so that no residual scrub is left over.

If your skin is oily, mix 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon honey, and 1 teaspoon water.

If your skin is normal to combination, mix 1 teaspoon ground oatmeal, 1 teaspoon honey, and 1 teaspoon milk.

For dry skin, mix 1 teaspoon ground almonds, 1 teaspoon honey, and 1 teaspoon olive oil.

Step 3: Steam

Steaming opens up pores and rids your face of impurities. Bring a small pot of water to a simmer. Drape a towel over your head and place your face over the pot so that the steam makes contact. Steam for 3 to 5 minutes.

For an herbal steam, add essential oils like lavender or peppermint extract. You can also use tea bags like chamomile and mint to your steam.

Step 4: Facial Mask

The best part of an at-home facial mask is that you can tailor it to your skin's needs for the most effective facial.

Any skin type can use honey in their mask. It moisturizes your skin and acts as an antibacterial agent.

Oily skin types can mix 1 teaspoon of cosmetic clay to 1 tablespoon of honey. Normal to combination skin types can mix 1 tablespoon of yogurt to 1 tablespoon of honey. Dry skin types can mix 1/2 mashed banana with 1 tablespoon of honey.
