    Now you are ready to steam your face with herb infusion or your favourite perfume. Pour boiling water over herb in a bowl, make a towel into a head tent and steam the face for 10 minutes and then gently remove any blackheads with tissue-covered fingers. If you have sensitive skin, or broken veins, you should avoid this step.

    While the face mask is working on the skin , put your feet up and relax. Place cotton wool dipped in witch hazel on your eye lids, this will enhance the effectiveness of your mask . After half an hour rinse away the face mask with warm water. Finish off with a few splashes of cool water to close your pores and freshen your skin, then pat dry with a towel.

    Soak a cotton wool pad with a skin toner lotion and smooth over oily areas, such as the T-zone on the nose, chin and forehead. Dot your skin with moisturizer and smooth it in. Take the opportunity to massage your skin , as this encourages a brighter complexion and can help reduce puffiness. Smooth the sensitive eye area under your eyes with a soothing eye cream to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and make the skin ultra soft.
