The benefits of floral steam baths

Les Bienfaits des bains de vapeur floraux

The weekly steam bath is a comforting treatment that has many benefits for the skin. Also known as a facial sauna or fumigation, this technique uses water steam infused with organic flowers with targeted properties to bring radiance to the skin.

Purification :

The heat of the steam naturally dilates the pores of the skin and facilitates the removal of impurities and toxins that tend to blur the complexion. 

Blood Circulation :

Exposure to heat also stimulates perspiration and dilation of blood vessels, thus encouraging better blood circulation which oxygenates the skin and gives it more radiance.

Penetration of skincare products:

The steam bath that dilates the pores and moisturizes the stratum corneum of the skin makes it more receptive to care and facilitates the penetration of masks and serums.

How to do ?

 

  1. Once a week, pour two teaspoons of your organic flower mixture into a bowl of boiling water (prefer glass, stainless steel or steel bowls).

  1. Place your face above the bowl with - optionally - a towel on your head.
  1. Take a deep breath and enjoy this relaxing moment for 5 to 10 minutes.
  1. After your steam bath, you can cleanse your skin thoroughly and then run cold water over your face to close the pores and stop perspiration.
