Algae from the sea are significant for the skin. Seaweed can be used as a mask for the face by simply placing the sheets in warm water and applying them to your skin. It's best to let them sit for 15 minutes to get the full effect. This will allow you to absorb all vitamins, minerals, and bacteria-fighting properties.
When heat is applied to the skin, it promotes better circulation. It also opens the pores and allows our skin to breathe. To give your face a hot towel massage, you must soak a clean towel in hot water and immediately apply it to your face. With the warm towel, slowly massage your face for about 15 minutes. When you're done, don't forget to put on oil to nourish the recently treated area.
If you want to take advantage of the moisturizing process and allow any lotion or cream to penetrate your pores fully, ensure you moisturize as soon as you dry off from bathing. Since your pores are opened up in the bath or shower, applying any natural moisturizer no more than 10 seconds after you've dried off is best.
Citric acid works wonders to rid your pores of excess dirt and oil and remove dead skin cells. Just squeeze half a lemon into a bowl and use a cotton ball as an applicator to take advantage of the healing powers of citric acid. Your skin will thank you as the lemon will leave it bright and clear and feeling fresh.
Even professional cosmeticians in Korea use soy milk in their treatments, not to mention others who use it at home as a remedy.

It's recommended to use this recipe up to twice a week.
Sea salt can disinfect your skin while getting rid of unsightly blackheads.
