How to do a Facial or Skin Detox Treatment

Taking care of ourselves will always be synonymous with self-love, even more so when it comes to caring for our skin. For this reason, when we talk about choosing procedures to benefit it, we cannot leave anything to chance, so take note, because here we will learn everything we need to know about detox on our face, a facial treatment that we commonly hear about, but that perhaps little we know.

What is a facial detox?

You may be familiar with the term detox, it has become very popular lately and has been linked to processes to rid the body of toxins. The facial detox is no exception, this is a treatment that aims to detoxify our face and improve its appearance.

Our skin can be affected by changes in climate, presenting slight spots or excess oil that is not obvious to the naked eye, but that really has a negative impact on it in the long term. 

One of our recommendations to reduce these effects is a facial detox, which is why we want to share its benefits with you.

Benefits of facial detox

Among the main benefits of facial detox, we find:

• Decongested skin from the inside out.
• The possibility of extracting all the impurities that remain in the deeper layers, which are not removed so easily with your usual skincare routine. 
• Purify pores to renew and balance your skin according to your needs.

If your facial detox is part of a care and well-being routine, you do not necessarily have to go to a beauty center to do it, you can follow these steps that we recommend to make it a success without leaving home.

How to perform a homemade facial detox, step by step

We always leave some procedures such as extractions and peelings to professionals, never to a tutorial on social networks! But this facial detox definitely has a yes to doing it at home. Discover its benefits by following this step-by-step:

1. Cleansing: Do your facial cleansing as usual, you can start with the Rose Micellar Makeup Remover Water to remove dirt, then apply the Facial Cleansing Gel for Oily Combination Skin, rinse and that’s it! Your skin will be completely clean and prepared to absorb all the benefits of our detox.
2. Apply steam: Place hot water in a container and place your face close to the steam, maintaining a distance of approximately 2 meters. Leave it for 1 to 3 minutes. This will open your pores, preparing them for impurities to come out much easier in the next step.
3. Exfoliate: Apply a suitable exfoliator for you, massage gently and then rinse it, this will remove dead cells as well as any trace of impurities. Remember that although natural ingredients are very striking, there are some with which we must be especially careful, avoiding contrary reactions such as irritations or stains. 
4. Mask: After the previous steps, your pores will be open and exposed, so you should hydrate them with a mask. Opt for one that has a calming effect and leave it on your skin for ten minutes.
5. Nutrition: With the serum that you normally use in your routine, massage your face, this will make your skin absorb the nutrients of the product much better, in addition to stimulating blood circulation. This step will leave your skin oxygenated and vital.
6. Moisturizing: Finish this ritual with your facial cream, this will seal all the nutrients you just applied into your skin.

Beyond including a facial detox in your care routine, it is important that you manage to identify why you will carry it out; If you have just arrived from a trip and your skin has experienced excessive dryness, it is important to consult with your trusted dermatologist to implement the appropriate products and procedures.
