How to take care of your face after steaming

Using steam to care for the face is actually a common way, and it is also the way many friends keep their skin hydrated. After steaming your face, there is actually follow-up care, such as using some original facial masks, like yogurt masks, cucumber masks, honey masks, etc., which can make the mask more effective.

You can apply a facial mask immediately after steaming your face. Steam your face with hot steam before applying the mask. This can expand the facial pores and promote blood circulation, allowing the skin to better absorb the moisture and nutrients in the mask.

1. Before using a facial mask, it is best to do an allergy test first. Apply a small amount of mask dressing on the back of your hand and wash it off after 30 minutes. If there is no redness or itching reaction at the applied area, you can apply it on your face. Especially for DIY facial masks, you should insist on doing an allergy test first.

2. Before applying the mask, you should remove makeup and wash your face. If necessary, you can also exfoliate first to facilitate the absorption of the mask and prevent dirt and dust from entering the pores.

3. After washing your face, before applying the facial mask, you can first apply a hot towel to your face for three minutes, and then massage all over your face for three to five minutes to enhance the effect of the facial mask.

4. Use a moisturizing mask. If it is a smearable mask, you can use it while taking a shower, which is especially beneficial for hydration and absorption! Masks dry out easily. If you use it while taking a shower, you can avoid strong skin tingling and prevent skin moisture from being absorbed by the mask.

5. The order of applying facial mask should be from neck, jaw, cheeks, nose, lips, forehead, from bottom to top; it is not suitable to apply facial mask around the eyes, eyebrows, upper and lower lips. It is best to start from the T-zone which is prone to dryness, and then apply it to the U-zone last.

What are the benefits of a facial steamer?

1. Efficient hydration . Through technological means, water is converted into nano-scale, high-temperature mist particles. When used, it can open the pores and allow the nano water particles to be directly absorbed by the skin, replenishing water efficiently, safely and thoroughly. Compared with professional steam beauty treatments in beauty salons, it saves money and time, and has good results. It is not restricted by technology and can be done at home, in the office, or even when going out.

2. Deep cleaning . Using the steam spray of a facial steamer to fumigate the facial skin can soften the hair follicles and keratinized cells, which is beneficial for removing dirt and keratinized cells deep in the hair follicles during cleansing and massage. It can also more thoroughly remove dirt and cosmetics from the skin, leaving the skin refreshed, smooth and delicate. It can reduce or eliminate melanin deposition in facial skin, prevent and treat facial pigmentation, and make facial skin smooth, fair and tender. In addition, after the skin is steamed with hot air, the skin's elasticity is enhanced and wrinkles are reduced.

3. Improve circulation . The nano-scale, high-temperature mist particles ejected by the facial steamer can improve the skin's microcirculation, enhance the nutrient supply to the skin, nerves, and blood vessels, and keep the skin rosy, shiny, and tender.
