You’ll need a large glass bowl, a facial tea from the above list, and clean skin. That’s it!
Bring 3-4 cups of water to a boil and pour into glass bowl. Add a handful of facial tea to the water and steep for 5 minutes. Create a steam vent by holding towel over your head, above the bowl. Be sure to keep your face a few inches above water to avoid a steam burn. Relax and breathe deeply for 3-5 minutes. Emerge with gloriously revitalized skin. Tone, treat, and moisturize as usual.
