Special Tips for Acne
To Help End or Avoid Acne:
• Cleanse the colon, the kidneys and the liver.
• Avoid fried foods, sugar, dairy, alcohol, coffee, tea,
chocolate and high sugar fruit.
• Use Mineral Makeup to avoid cosmetics containing
colors, dyes, fragrances and preservatives.
• Eat wholesome nutritious foods – lots of vegetables.
• Cleanse face 2 times daily. Spot treat blemishes
with essential oils throughout the day.
• Follow a weekly regime of cleaning, scrubbing,
massaging, steaming, masking, toning, and
moisturizing.
Step 3 – Massage Guideline
• Begin at base of neck under chin and stroke up to top
of ear.
• Start at jaw and move our hands to corner of the
mouth; to the corner of the nose; cheekbone; then up
to the temple and middle of forehead.
• Make a circle from inner corners of the eyes and under
your eyes.
• Massage above upper lip to outside of the mouth.
• Stroke forehead upward to hairline.
• Massage head by gently tapping the head all over,
stimulating circulation. Rub along the scalp and
gently move scalp over the head. Gently tug on hair
from the roots to relieve muscle tension.
Step 4 – Steam Guidelines
• Steam after cleanse, scrub and face massage.
• Steam face by draping a towel over head and a large bowl to
catch the steam or use a store bought steamer. Hold face
over steam about 12 inches away from water – warning hot
– relax for 10 minutes with eyes closed.
• Rinse with cool water or massage with ice cold cloth.
For very dry or sensitive skin use a hot compress as an
alternative to steam. Immerse washcloth in hot water with
essential oil, wring out, apply to face and repeat as cloth
cools.
