Facials for Skin of All Types

A facial cleans, exfoliates and nourishes the skin to promote clear, well-hydrated skin. A facial is the second most favourite spa service after massage. Ideally, get a facial each four to six weeks because that’s how long it takes the skin to regenerate. Try to have a facial at least four times a year, as the season changes. You might need it more frequently if you are trying to clear up a case of acne, especially at the beginning.

Decide for a facial which is noncomedogenic, unscented oil and soap free versatile facial cleanser for the proper cleansing that is the basis of a successful skin care regime. There are different skin types such as:

Normal Skin

Mature Skin

Simple Dry Skin

Oily Skin

All facials start with an in-depth skin analysis and personalized advice for proper treatment and care.

Some common for all skin types facial recipes

Honey Facial – 1 containerful honey, 1 egg yoke, 1 teaspoon olive oil – Beat the egg yoke with a fork, add the oil and blend well. Add the honey using a spoon that you have rinsed with hot water and blend well again. Smear it all over your face with your fingers, except do not cover your eyes. Leave it on your face for 15 minutes, then rinse it off.

Cucumber Facial – 1 cucumber, 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon witch hazel, 1 egg white, beaten to be fluffy – Peel the cucumber and run it through a blender or a food processor. Pour the cucumber pulp into a colander or strainer and force it through, catching the liquid that comes out in a bowl underneath. Combine the cucumber liquid with the lemon juice and the witch hazel. Stir it and add the beaten egg white gently. Put it on your face and leave it on for 15 to 25 minutes, then rinse off.

Some tips for excellent facials:

You can purchase a mask or make your own at home. Honey and egg whites are very good and effective standbys.

For dry skin, try using a mashed banana or avocado.

The herbs that work for you will depend on your specific skin qualities.

Experiment with a variety of herbs until you find the ones that work best.

(yes guys, I woke up and did this tutorial without doing my hair… Mega bed head alert) Hi everyone, Here is another homemade mask recipe as promised. I am loving this facial scrub so much!!!! You guys have to try it. Who needs to spend massive amounts of cash when all you need is to go downstairs into your own kitchen? My ‘Origins Modern Friction’ exfoliater works great but my skin is far too sensitive for the ingredients. It stung my face when I washed it out. Until one morning, I was sipping my greentea when I suddenly had a thought and wondered if we can use greentea as an ingredient for our skin. We can!!! Greentea not only tastes wonderful but has promising benefits for our body and skin. This homemade mask is affordable and great for getting rid of dead skin cells (which can pile up giving you a dull complexion). By using the scrub when it is slightly warm, it opens our pores allowing the nutrients of the mask to sanitize deep within. I get questions by people asking me how they can reduce appearance of scars. The answer is by exfoliating and removing the scar tissues. You can even use this scrub on your body. The amount I reccomended is for 2-4 applications. You can adjust the recipe to make it more ‘thick’ or ‘thin’ so it suits yourself. I would reccomend you to exfoliate at least once a week. If you have a jar, store it in your fridge (use still bottled water instead though). You can purchase green tea (teabags or loose tea leaves) in your supermarket. You are sure to
