My mom taught me a DIY skincare trick – it’ll help you have fewer wrinkles, stop acne, and give off a healthier glow
A NATURAL beauty guru has shared her mom's DIY skincare trick.
It will leave you with fewer wrinkles, stop acne, and give off a healthier glow.
It's simple, cheap, and non-invasive.
You will not visit beauty salons for this makeover.
This treatment takes place in your kitchen.
Trinh Georg (@trinhgeorg) shared her mom's tip on TikTok.
She regularly shares her natural beauty hacks on the platform with 288,000 followers.
“If you don’t do sauna or steam bath regularly, you should do face steaming at least once a week," she said in her post.
There were other uses for this hack, not just beauty ones.
“My mom did this for me when I was sick. [It's something] we Vietnamese do."
All you need is a bowl, boiling water, and a selection of herbs and fruit.
She liked lemons, ginger, lemongrass, and mint.
“Get a big bowl and pour boiled water into it. It is boiling water so be really careful," she warned viewers.
At no point in the steaming process should there be any contact with bare skin.
She added her chopped ingredients, with a few drops of essential oil if preferred.
“Use a towel over your head and remember to keep your distance from the boiled water," she said.
“That’s it very simple. Steam your face for ten minutes," she said.
