Tired of spending more than $100 on a facial? Now you can get beautiful skin at home. These easy steps will bring you closer to clear, beautiful, and soft skin.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • Sugar
  • oatmeal
  • warm water
  • cucumber
  • tea bags (green tea preferred)
  • one hour of your time
  • a brush come in handy, but not necessary
  • two bowls
  • a towel

Step1
First you will need to put about 1/4 cup of sugar into a bowl.
Also put one cup of oatmeal into another bowl.
Add about 4 ounces of warm water to the bowl of sugar and mix. Mixture should not be too thick, nor too thin, but in between.
Cut a cucumber into 2 thin slices.
Step2
With a brush or preferably your finger tips, begin applying the sugar to your face. Begin by setting it to the face and then spreading by using circular motion. Once the entire face is covered, go ahead and lay down, place the cucumber in your eyes. Wait 15 minutes.
Step3
After the 15 minutes. Remove the cucumbers and place the towel in hot water and remove the sugar from your face. This causes an ex foliating effect to take place. Make sure that there is no residue left. You can feel that the skin is already beginning to feel soft!
Step4
Now add hot water to the oatmeal and mix. The mixture should be thick. While the tea bags sit in hot water, begin to apply the oatmeal to the face. Apply as you would a mask. Do not do circular motions as the oatmeal hardens and may cause lines to imprint on skin. Once the entire face is covered, lay down and place the tea bags on your eyes. Wait 30 minutes.
Step5
After the 30 minutes, wet the towel again in hot water, and begin to remove the oatmeal. Repeat the process until the face is clear. Then wet with cold water (this will cause the pores to close after the dirt and oil has been removed). Tap with a dry towel if necessary.
Step6
Now you can look and feel the difference!! Clearer, softer, beautiful skin without emptying a wallet. And you can do this without appointments and at your convenience.

Tips & Warnings

  • If someone volunteers to help you with the process, even better. Ask a relative or friend to help you, and vice versa. Both of you can have a facial.
  • Excessive use of this facial may cause the skin to dry or irritate, so try to limit the use to once a week or twice a month.
