Steaming your face properly can eliminate toxins, increase blood circulation, support acne treatment and make your skin brighter and smoother. This method also helps relax and reduce stress. The benefits of steaming your face with hot water are as follows:
Detoxify the skin: When steaming, the pores dilate, sebum and dirt are softened so they can be easily removed from the pores, and the skin is cleaned from the inside. Thanks to the heat from steam and the amount of sweat that the skin secretes, it pushes toxins and dirt out.
Enhance blood circulation: Facial steaming contributes to dilating the capillaries in the face, effectively increasing blood circulation, helping the skin become rosier and smoother.
Treat and prevent hidden acne: The process of eliminating toxins and dirt cleans the skin from deep within, so the agents that cause acne are also removed. The heat of steam also contributes to killing bacteria, preventing the formation of hidden acne, making the skin brighter, cleaner, and smoother.
Moisturizes and supports nutrient absorption: This method also provides water to skin cells. Steaming your face before applying toner, serum or moisturizer helps the product absorb better. At this time, temperature and humidity create conditions for the skin to more easily penetrate and receive topical products.
Relax and reduce stress: The heat and aroma contained in essential oils or sauna ingredients contribute to the expansion of pores and capillaries. They also gently stimulate the nerves, creating a relaxed state of mind and reducing stress.
Before steaming, you should clean your skin with makeup remover and facial cleanser to remove dirt, oil and dead cells. You should do this every 10 minutes at most to avoid dry skin and dehydration. After steaming, you should wait about 10-15 minutes for the pores to begin to tighten before washing your face with cool water. If you have oily skin, you can steam more often but no more than three times per week. Dry, thin skin should only be done once a week.
If you steam at too hot a temperature and do not keep the correct distance, it can cause side effects and skin damage. People with skin diseases such as rosacea, eczema and seborrheic dermatitis should consult a doctor before using it because it may cause unwanted effects.
