Use A Homemade Facial Cleanser

Homemade facial cleansers can easily remove any dirt, old makeup and sweat that may have accumulated on the skin throughout the course of an average day.

The best face cleanser should be gentle yet thorough, so making up a cleanser with a light and easy to smooth consistency is vital.

For a stimulating and therapeutic effect, always make sure you choose a cleanser to suit your skin type.

The most effective way to use a cleanser is to place a small amount in the palm of your hand and allow it to warm before gently massaging it into your skin.

Remove with a cotton wool or cosmetic tissue, being careful not to drag the skin.

Tip

The herbs above are also excellent when used for steaming.

For a deep clean pour boiling water into a bowl over the chopped herbs. Cover your head and bowl with a towel (keeping your head at least 1 foot above the water) for 10 to 15 minutes.

To keep your skin looking its best, don't steam your face more than once a week.
