a romantic evening with a special someone. If you want to pamper yourself before
a big date, a DIY facial is a great treat that will bring a natural glow to your face,
and give special care to your skin. If this is a holiday that you'll be spending single,
a quiet and relaxing evening is best accompanied with some self-care and close
friends that can join you in your pampering session. Women's daily lives can often

ingredients needed can be found in your kitchen, and a lot of time does not have to
be set aside to indulge in this pampering act. The recipe below contains exfoliating,

Ingredients
1 cup of Green Tea
1 tablespoon of Granulated Sugar
1 tablespoon of Lemon Juice
1 cup of Green Tea
1 tablespoon of Granulated Sugar
1 tablespoon of Lemon Juice
Directions
Make a strong cup of green tea using two teabags, or twice as much loose tea as
you would usually use. The tea should be left to steep for approximately an hour, at
which point it should be lukewarm. Remove the tealeaves or teabags and mix in the
lemon juice and sugar.

Application
Remove all makeup and facial products with a makeup remover or cleanser. Fill a
bowl or pot with freshly boiled water. Place your face over the bowl with a towel over
your head to contain the steam. Steam your face for at least 5 minutes to improve
circulation to your skin and release impurities for deeper cleansing. Afterwards, pat
the green tea mixture on to your face and rub it in small circular motions to exfoliate.
Let the mask sit for at least 15 minutes while you relax. Wash the mixture off and
apply your moisturizer.
