    Default Anyone Facial Steam?

    Since I've been doing the OCM (Oil Cleansing Method) it's given me an excuse to steam my face 1-2x per week. I love how it makes my skin feel. Gets all the deep down gunk. Any other facial steamers out there? How often are you steaming your face, and what if any essential oils are you putting in your water?

    I've heard about doing it and I want to, you just get a bowl of hot water and lean over and put a towel over your head to keep the steam in right? Sounds so relaxing

    I do it here and there, and I agree, it really does feel deep-cleansing. I sometimes put mint tea bags in the water but that's just for the smell. I usually exfoliate before and gently after too. I love how it makes my skin feel.

    Its really good when you have a cold. the steam clears your chest up. or at least thats what my mum did for me when i was little.

    All I can picture is that scene from Crocodile Dundee when he pours this guy's line of coke into the boiling water and makes him put his face in it because he thinks he has a cold.

    From what I can remember you do it up to 20min.

    First I apply my oil, massage in for like 5min (at least) then steam for about 10min, wipe the oil off and steam for another 5min. Then I wipe again and my skin is flawless

    I just did 10 minutes in a mint steam facial. It felt good, but I'm not sure how much it helps. It feels like it helps...I'll try it more frequently and see if I notice any change.s
    I'm not who I say I am.

    I typically choose bergamot or gernanium if I get a facial.

    I usually do a home facial once or twice a week (comodogenic (sp?) mac products which I refuse to give up!!) Always steam... Just plain water. Works WONDERS.

    What oils do you use, and do they leave your skin oily afterwards, because I have a serious problem with oily skin? The heat and my oily skin in the summer is making me break out so bad! Do you heat the water on the stove until it's steaming or do you just use hot tap water? Thanks!

    I use castor oil and EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) I was using it in a 50/50 split. I have oily/combination skin. Now though, I'm using 75% EVOO and 25% Castor oil.

    After you massage the oils in your face for at least 5min (it's breaking down the oils/whiteheads/blackheads embedded in the pores) then I either take a hot washcloth and sit it on my face for like 30seconds. I do that about 3x and then wipe from the chin up to remove the oil. Then I place the washcloth again about 2x wiping the same way on the second time. Then I'm done. If I decide to steam it I heat the water up over the stove. It feels great!

    Here is a tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-iQo60y912g
