Steaming has long been used as a luxurious facial treatment in high-end spas. Why wait when you can indulge your skin at home? Learn how to steam your face for maximum good skin benefits.

To get the most from your skin and skincare, get a good steam on. There are so many healthy reasons to make this ritual a regular part of your beauty routine.

Steaming detoxes the skin by opening the pores and softening the dirt and debris they hold. The practice also ramps up perspiration, which helps to rid pores of toxins and buildup. Think of it as a steamroom for your face.

Giving your skin a good steaming also enhances the effects of your skincare. Once pores are cleared and skin is softened, your healthy serums, oils, and moisturizers can more easily penetrate and benefit skin.
