Actually that is very sound advice. Its all about cleansing your skin, the warmth of the steam bath will cause your pores to open up so any excess oil that clogs the pores, causing spots and black heads can be removed, thus cleansing the skin. The cold water will then cause the pores to close again, which is good, as tightly closed pores tend not to "go into overdrive" which would cause spots, black heads and blemishes. Jeanlucsgirl (how lucky for Jean Luc...), you seem to think facials are all about fun, which is fine, but for most it is about actually improving the condition of your skin. If to you it is indeed only about fun you will probably have naturally great skin, if so I congratulate you. However there s no need to call Adie's advice horrible simply because you fail to see the benefits. Happy spa-ing.

That's horrible advice. You don't want to steam your face until it's hot and flushed, then add MORE heat by taking a shower! And on top of that, plunge your face into ice cold water? Not only will you be cold and miserable, your face will be beet red! Doesn't sound like a "fun" facial to me.
