Purifying, rebalancing, regulating, and toning, rosemary is an ideal herb for gently cleansing combination, oily, and acne-prone skin. As a skincare expert with years of experience in natural remedies, I recommend this traditional grandma-style steam bath for clearer, healthier skin.
• A bunch of fresh rosemary
• A saucepan
• A towel
Place the entire bunch of rosemary (including stems) in a saucepan and boil for 10 minutes. Allow it to cool slightly to prevent burns, then position your face over the pan. Drape the towel over your head to trap the steam and relax for 10 minutes. Gently pat your skin dry with a clean towel. Follow with gentle exfoliation, a deep-cleansing mask, or your moisturizer for optimal results.
Bonus: Drink the cooled infusion as a liver-detoxifying tea—rosemary supports detoxification for radiant skin from within.
