    Default Ayurvedic Facial in your own home

    Ayurvedic Facial

    This ayurvedic facial both nourishes and exfoliates your skin. Milk softens and cools the skin and loosens up pore-clogging particles. Hot steam opens your pores and the Youthful Skin Clay removes impurities. The Youthful Skin Oil and Cream restore the lipid and moisture levels of the skin.

    1. Cleanse face and neck with M•SPA Youthful Skin Cleansing Gel to remove makeup and impurities.

    2. Apply several drops of Youthful Skin Oil on fingers and gently massage the face and neck. Repeat three times.


    3. Slowly bring half a cup of organic milk to a boil, add a few drops of rose water and beat until a thick layer of foam appears. Massage milk foam onto the face and neck. Repeat three times.

    4. Use a facial steamer for five minutes or until the skin perspires. Make a tent for yourself using a towel or sheet.

    5. Apply a thin layer of Youthful Skin Clay to the face and neck. Leave on for three to five minutes or until the skin begins to feel tight.

    6. Remove clay with remaining organic milk and then rinse milk off with warm water. Use natural sponges for removal of clay.

    7. Apply a thin layer of Youthful Skin Oil to the face and neck. Dab off excess with a tissue.

    8. After one hour, apply a thin layer of Youthful Skin Cream to the face and neck.

    Default Anti-stress self-massage

    Anti-stress self-massage

    After you have treated your face, it's time to administer an ayurvedic self-massage. Abhyanga (warm oil massage) should be practiced every morning preceding your shower. For this spa treatment, extend the massage to make it a relaxing, luxurious experience. Massaging your whole body with oil feeds your skin and helps release toxins that accumulate in the body and skin over time. It also improves circulation, relaxes the mind and the body, and nourishes all the tissues and organs. For the home spa treatment, try Maharishi Ayurveda Relaxing Massage Oil, which contains almond oil to lubricate your skin and Frankincense essential oil to calm your physiology.

    Steps for Abhyanga

    1. Fill a small plastic bottle with oil and place it in a glass of hot water for a few minutes to heat the oil.

    2. Apply a small amount of oil to the body starting with the scalp all the way down to you toes.

    3. Start massaging your scalp slowly with firm pressure. After two minutes, move down to your ears and face using small circles. (If you have just done a facial, skip the face)

    4. Then start with the left shoulder in circular motion. Follow with long strokes on the upper arm, circles on the elbow and long strokes on the forearm. Circle around the wrist and do long strokes on the hand. Repeat with the other arm.

    5. Use circular strokes on the chest and the stomach and upward strokes on your lower back.

    6. Continue on to the left leg, by doing circles on the joints and long strokes on the limbs. The feet should get special attention, which we will detail in the next section.
