Does Steam Help Acne?

Steaming may help to reduce the frequency, severity & duration of acne outbreaks.

a] Heat & moisture increases circulation,helps to remove wastes from blocked pores.
b] Dried skin cells are easier to remove when moistened with steam. Following this apply gentle abrasive (baking soda), to gently exfoliate and remove dried skin cells that can block pores and contribute to acne.
c] Follow steaming and exfoliating with a natural moisturizer that does not contain alcohol, such as coconut oil.



When steaming the skin, do not get too close to the source of the steam or serious burns may result.
