Are you steaming? You should be! Steaming is a very simple yet very beneficial step that can be added to your skincare routine.

Steaming opens up pores to leave a healthy, blemish-free complexion. Adding one of our botanical blend facial steam packs to steaming water can help improve skin and the herbal aromas are sure to give your mood a lift.

When you have a spare five minutes, steaming is a great way to deeply cleanse and clear your skin. Cover your head with a towel and lean over a bowl of hot water, infused with herbs and essential oils, inhaling deeply, for five to ten minutes. This process can help to deliver oxygen deep into your pores and aid the removal of dirt.

The herbal blends you choose and regularity of your steaming can be customized to the balance of your skin. Get to know which ingredients your skin responds to best by looking at the label on your favorite facial moisturizer or cleanser and using these as a guide.

A deep steam clean will also benefit all skin types, although the herbal blends you choose and regularity of your steaming should be catered to the balance of your skin.

Those will oilier complexions or breakouts will benefit from steaming for around five minutes, two or three times a week, in order to remove dirt blockages from the skin and treat hard to reach blemishes. Citrusy herbs and oils such as grapefruit or lemon will deliver antiseptic action, while old-time favorite tea tree has a wonderfully neutralizing effect on troubled areas!

More dry or mature skins will also love the brightening effects of a steam, but tend not to need as much of a regular deep clean. This is because the process of desquamation (the shedding of dead skin cells) tends to be a little slower in dryer complexions, leading to fewer blockages in the pores. Moisture is important here, herbs and oils such as rose, lavender and chamomile will nourish delicate protections while you cleanse.

As with anything, balance is key. If you are steaming regularly, ensure you are using a balanced blend of gentle ingredients to really care for your skin and see the best results.
