Homemade spa: How to get a nice skin for back to school?

Back to school is coming, and back to school looks, school supplies decorations, hauls etc. are appearing everywhere on the net.
I tried to find an article idea that could help you, and which I had not seen anywhere else.
So here are some beauty DIYs, to get a nice skin for the D-Day.

First, the skin needs to be prepared for the care, so it can benefit of it a miximum.

After having removed all your makeup, put your face over a bowl, containing boiling water. You can cover your head with a clean towel. Wait for 10min, and quickly dry your face with the towel.
This is called a steam bath. The steam helps to open the pores of the skin, to clear it in depth. After that, the skin will more easily absorb the mask.


We will then make a mosturizing mask.

You will need:

- 1tsp of honey
- a yogurt
- a verbena tea bag or dried verbena
- the juice of 1/2 lemon and the zest of it
As well as a teaspoon and a bowl.

Pour the yogurt in the bowl. Cut the tea bag an add the verbena in the bowl, as well as the lemon juice, the lemon zest and the honey. Mix it all together and let it cool in the fridge for 5 min.
Apply on the skin, by doing light massages with clean fingers.
Let it set for a few minutes and remove it with a washcloth and cold water.
We can really notice that the skin is soft and mosturized.


Finally, we will be taking care of the body, and make a scrub.

You will need:

-135g sugar
-3 cl coconut oil
-1/2 lemon

Put the sugar into a bowl, and add in the coconut oil. Then, grate in the zest of the half lemon, and add the lemon juice. Mix well, and pour the mixture in a jar.
Apply on the skin by doing circular movements, and rinse with water.

The sugar exfoliates and the lemon purifies the skin, while the coconut oil is mosturizing.
After you showered, you can mosturize your body again.
