How to do Facial at Home using natural Ingredients

Hello everyone,

Welcome back to Makeup and Beauty Diaries. I thought to share a step by step tutorial of how to do Facial at Home using Ingredients which are easily available in our kitchen. Facial improves skin texture and help reduces stress on facial muscles which automatically imparts glow on skin and it rejuvenates the skin inside out. So lets see what all ingredients we need for this facial.

Ingredients:

* Raw milk
* Honey
* Sugar
* Alovera gel
* Lemon
* Gram floor/ fuller's earth/curd (whatever suits your skin type)
* Rosewate
* Almond oil or any other oil (optional)

Step 1 Washing

Before starting the facial make sure to remove your makeup if you have any and wash it properly which will clean all the dust, impurities accumulated through out the day. Also doing facial on unwashed face will not give any effect rather you will blend all that dirt on your skin which can clog pores giving you skin problems. So never skip this step even in your everyday routine.

Step 2 Cleansing

To make your face squaky clean and prepare it for the next steps in facial cleansing is important. Take some raw milk on cotton ball and swipe gently all over your face and neck. I am saying raw milk because lactic contains in raw milk is more compare to boiled milk. Now if you have cleaned your face wellin step 1 then you can skip this step and continue with the third step.

Step 3 Scrubbing

Take some honey and add sugar to it and mix it well. Now take some on your fingers and start scrubbing your face gently starting of with t-zone (nose area), chin, cheeks, forehead and neck. Scrubb gently and slowly in a circular motion until the sugar started dissolving. If you feel sugar particles are too big to scrub just crush it a bit and you can use it. Honey is known for its moisturizing properties where sugar will work as natural scrub for your skin. It will help reduce blackheads, whiteheads and remove the dirt by cleaning your pores and your skin will become soft and smooth.

Step 4 Massage

Take some alovera gel and add some honey to it. You can use fresh alovera or you can use just any alovera gel available in market. Mix it well and start massaging your face in a circular motion giving gental strokes on your cheeks, nose, forehead, chin and neck area. Massage for good 10 minutes and keep it that way or wipe it with cotton pad if you want. Alovera gel is very good for skin and it has anti ageing, anti tanning and moisturizing qualities and along with honey when you massage it all the goodness of these two makes your skin glowy, soft and hydrated. Massage increases blood circulation which results in giving you nice,soft,glowy skin.

Step 5 Steaming

If you have steamer then use it and if you don't have just take some water in a vessel and boil it till steam started coming out. Now put this vessel carefully on a table or sturdy surface and take a towel or something to cover yourself. In this water you can add 2-3 drops Almond oil or any other essential oil, this is optional. Now keep your face covering in a towel on a safe distance from steamer and take steam for 5-7 minutes. All your skin pores will be opened and skin will sweat due to Steaming and glow so nicely. Now pat it dry with towel or tissue.

Step 6 Face pack

Now that your skin pores are open it is very important to shrink or close them because open pores catches all the dirt and uncloged pores calls for all skin problems. To make a face pack take a base ingredient according to what suits your skin the best. For example if you have normal skin you can use gram flour, fuller's earth for combination to oily skin, curd or milk cream for dry skin. Add some honey, little bit of raw milk, few drops of lemon and rose water to make it paste like consistency. Apply all over your face and neck except for the lip, eye, eyebrow area. Wait for 20 minutes or till the pack dried. Meanwhile grab some coffee or listen to some music and relax. Now wash off with normal water rubbing slowly. Clean your face well and pat it dry.

Step 7 Moisturizing

You are done with the facial and your skin will be rejuvenated, soft, glowy and beautiful. But to retain all the goodness of facial apply some moisturizer on it. It will help sink in all benefits of ingredients which we used in this facial.
