Recipe For Beautiful Skin - The Energized Facial

by Dee Braun

There are a myriad of ideas for health, beauty, body care, facial care...now here's another great technique to help you on your way to healthier skin.

The energized facial is one way to slow down, relax and give your face some added TLC. It is a great, easy and natural therapy for beautiful skin - and takes less than 5 minutes!

How To:

1) Rub palms of hands together briskly 35-40 times - you will feel the energy and heat build up.

2) Relax and hold hands (palms towards face) in front of face - about an inch away from your skin.

3) BREATHE - in for a count of five, out for a count of five. Do this five times.

When To:

1) While washing face - rub hands together as above - then wash face as usual feeling the energy penetrate as you cleanse.

2) After applying your favorite treatment mask - help the mask work even better by using this technique.

3) Nightly when lying in bed before sleep, after completing your evening skin care regimen and applying your nightly creams and lotions.

4) As a weekly facial after applying your favorite essential oil or blend

One way I've learned to use this is while in the tub. After washing my face I apply my favorite facial oil blend or beauty product, get a wash cloth wet with as hot a water as I can stand, and lay it over my face. I then do the hand-energy technique over the wash cloth and following with a cool water rinse.
