Maintaining a glowing and healthy skin is a herculean task nowadays in an environment where we live in which is full of pollution and dirt everywhere. With pollution and dirt, come blackheads, pimples, and tanning on your face which takes away all your glow and shine from your face making you look dull and ugly. No matter what and how does it takes, each one of us wants to look best, but we don’t find time for that due to so many tasks and responsibilities which we have.

Most of the time, we book salons which are in the budget for waxing, cleanup or facial. But don’t you think visiting a salon is not that important when you can do your facial or cleanup following simple steps at home only. It will also save lots of your money as well as your time.

Here, I have mentioned a simple and quick 7 steps which you can use to beautify your face.

Step 1

The first and the most important step starts with washing your face properly using a good quality face wash. Make sure your hands should be clean before you jump on to wash your face. And also don’t forget to wear an elastic hairband so that no hairs fall on your face before you apply face pack or anything else.

Step 2

After washing and cleaning your face properly, now it’s time to give some steam to your face. This is an important step as your pores will get open after steaming your face. It might make you feel a bit uncomfortable but it will make your face clean, clear as no dirt will remain on your face. For this process, you can use a steamer or boil water in a vessel or container.

Step 3

Now using a blackhead remover or tweezer, remove all the black and whiteheads from all over your face including forehead, nose and chin area where they are mostly found. Yes, it is a painful process but important also. Once you are done tweezing, wipe off your face using a tissue.

Step 4

After tweezing, apply some ice on your face to tighten the pores. Now use a mild scrub to remove the dirt from your face. Apply the scrub in a circular motion and then wash it off with lukewarm water. The choice is completely yours, whether you use natural one or homemade.

Step 5

After scrubbing your face, apply the face pack of your choice that suits you. Based on your skin type, choose the face pack. If you have oily skin, Multani Mitti would be good for you. For oily skin, you can use malai and if you have acne-prone skin, you can choose a neem face pack. After applying the face pack let it set on your face for 10 to 15 minutes and then wash it off with water.

Step 6

Now you are approaching towards the end of your face cleanup. Put a few drops of rosewater on a swab of cotton and apply it all over your face. Rosewater is a good toner that helps you to close the pores as well as freshens your skin.

Step 7

After applying the rosewater on your face, apply a good quality sunscreen on your face. You can opt for a moisturizing sunscreen if you have dry skin. And you are done with cleanup.

Now you know the steps using which you can do a face clean up at home, try one and save your money. Try doing a face clean up at least once or twice in a month to make your skin beautiful and gorgeous
