Ingredients You'll Need
- 1 drop lemon essential oil
- 1 drop rosemary essential oil
- 1 drop lavender essential oil
- Large bowl of hot water
Pro Tip! Use a glass or ceramic bowl to prevent any reactions with the essential oils.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Preparation: Fill a large bowl with very hot (but not boiling) water. The steam should be visible but not so hot that it's uncomfortable.
Step 1: Add the essential oils to the hot water in your large glass bowl, adding them one drop at a time. Watch as the oils disperse across the water's surface, releasing their aromatic compounds.
Step 2: Let the initial strong scent waft up and take a moment to appreciate the beautiful aroma before beginning. Position your face above the steam, starting from a comfortable distance. The warmth should feel pleasant, not overwhelming.
Step 3: Cover your head with a clean towel to create a mini steam tent, trapping the therapeutic vapors around your face. This intensifies the treatment and ensures you get the maximum benefit from the essential oils.
Step 4: Breathe deeply and relax for 4-5 minutes, allowing the steam to work its magic on your pores while you enjoy the aromatherapy benefits.
The Results You Can Expect
Your skin will feel soft, refreshed, and perfectly prepped for the next steps in your skincare routine. Pores will appear more open and ready for gentle extraction or deep cleansing treatments. Plus, you'll feel mentally refreshed and rejuvenated from the aromatherapy experience.
