Sometimes I have read in some articles, that it is not possible to perform a real deep cleansing at home due to the lack of High Frequency device. Well, that’s not entirely true and I’m going to show you why. Follow these steps below and you can do your deep cleansing facial in the comfort of your own home without having to invest in a spa any more than necessary.
These are the steps to a complete facial:
1) REMOVE MAKEUP AND CLEANSE. It is necessary to prepare the face to receive the nourishment it requires. For this, two steps are essential:
- A) Use a facial makeup remover. Once your face is free of makeup, comes the next step. (I use on this step micellar water).
- B) Cleanse your face with a good facial cleanser. And here I make a big emphasis because NOT all facial cleansers are good. What is meant by a good facial cleanser, one that is effective enough to penetrate the skin to cleanse it and leave it fresh and soft. (The brand I use and recommend is Nu Skin®).
2) EXFOLIATION. Exfoliation is the action of rubbing a granulated product gently over the face to remove dead skin cells and free the pores of the superficial layer of the skin or epidermis.
There are a lot of products on the market which are special for this purpose, but it is worth to highlight that it is very important to choose a brand whose grains are not so hard, in order they do not scratch or hurt the skin.
By subscribing yourself here, you can ask for a online free evaluation session and there I can recommend you a product that I use in my salon, which has a professional quality but at the same time is one of the most gentle I’ve tried, because has the following features:
“Unlike other exfoliants, our double-feature formula uses pomegranate enzymes to help loosen dead skin cells while natural exfoliating minerals remove them from your skin. Combining both enzymatic and physical exfoliation clears out dead skin cells more effectively than either would alone.

3) STEAM AND EXTIRPATE. Steam helps to open the pores, which makes it easier to clean. This can be done by boiling water in a pot or pan and exposing the face to it for about 5 to 10 minutes. Usually this step is accompanied by extirpation, with which care must be taken, as it can leave scars and marks.
Extirpate the pimples, whiteheads and blackheads, (if they could be extracted very gently), wrapping the fingers with paper towels or cotton and with the sides of the fingers remove them, NEVER with the nails.
4) GALVANIC FACE SPA. Here I am going to recommend one of the most advanced anti-aging technologies that exist today in facial care, which leaves the skin fresh, rejuvenated, no matter your age and you can do it in the comfort of your home.
It’s the Nu Skin® ageLoc Galvanic Face Spa®. Without the intention of simply promoting a good product, Nu Skin® has become a reference brand for me as a beautician , because of its cutting-edge technology that will leave your skin looking radiant and rejuvenated.

5) MASK.
At this point you can apply the mask of your choice. If you did the previous step you’ll notice that you won’t need it to look youthful and fresh, but it could always help you relax your face if you’ve had a tiring day. If you didn’t, then I might recommend a cucumber mask. Cucumber is a water-rich vegetable and can be applied to all skin types.
HOMEMADE CUCUMBER MASK
Chop a whole cucumber, with its shell, pour it into a blender with half a glass of milk or yogurt and blend it into a smooth paste. Apply it on your face and leave it on for 20 minutes and remove with warm water.
6) MOISTURIZING. Moisturize your skin with the cream of your choice that suits your skin type. By subscribing here you can ask for a free evaluation session in which I will recommend you the daily care products, suitable for you, and answer your questions about how to take care of your skin and look beautiful.
7) SUNSCREEN. Sunscreen is a must as a final step to deep cleansing.
In addition, you should always use it during the day before sun exposure, this prevents premature aging and unwanted spots. You can decide on a sunscreen suitable for your skin type or one that works for all skin types.
