What is Steaming? 

It cleanses the skin, promotes circulation, and helps your skin absorb your skincare products. This is due to the fact that it opens your pores, when you have finished the steam, I recommend that you apply our Nitey Nite Oil followed by the 2B Organic Carrageenan Night Mask. You will get the most benefits from both of these products at this time.

Steaming the skin also provides light exfoliation and is a perfect start to your home spa night. If you really want a deep cleanse then start your spa steam night with Sweetie Pie facial scrub followed by the steam, Nitey Nite Oil, and the Carrageenan Night Mask. The small molecules of steam can easily penetrate the skin, locking in the herbs and moisturising the skin.

Steaming your skin if you have oily or clogged skin is the most beneficial as it softens the sebum that has clogged the pores and the herbs have an antibacterial effect on the skin. Steaming also makes it easier for the removal of blackheads.

Steaming is not recommended for people who suffer from acne rosacea, eczema, or psoriasis.
