It is difficult to imagine a place that could not be more suitable for all kinds of cleansing and healing procedures than a bathhouse. After all, here everything you need is at hand: water, warmth, aromatic smells and, finally, just pleasant company and enough time for yourself.
Therefore, let’s not hang around in the dressing room for too long and start taking action.
Sauna scrubs
The first step, of course, will be to thoroughly wash and enter the steam room. Here you need to warm up thoroughly in order for the pores to open. Then we’ll rinse ourselves in the shower again and begin cleansing our body and face with scrubs.
A scrub, as you know, is a special substance that helps to cleanse not just impurities, but also dead skin particles, and at the same time make it light. Properly selected sauna scrub ingredients will also help remove waste and toxins from the skin, which contribute to the aging of the skin and body.

Bath essentials made from orange peels
Grind the dry peels in a coffee grinder to a powder. Then add water to make a paste, and treat the skin with this mixture.
If the skin is dry, then the powder can be diluted with sour cream or vegetable oil (preferably olive oil).
Also good for dry skin natural coffee sauna scrub.

So, the cleansing process is complete and you are ready to continue your bath procedures. This is where the time for hair masks in the sauna comes.
Hair masks in the sauna
The fact is that, unlike masks for the face and body, hair masks work best in a steam room.

If you're ready, let's get started.

Take 3 tbsp. spoons castor oil, mix it with two teaspoons of burdock oil and add 1 tsp. glycerin, apple cider vinegar and your regular shampoo.
Apply the mask to your hair, wrap it in plastic and put on a bath cap. Now we go to the steam room and warm ourselves up.
We wash it off after 30 minutes, but you don’t have to sit in the steam room all this time.
For dry hair ends You can also prepare a mask. To do this, mix a tablespoon of olive oil with 3 teaspoons of burdock and thoroughly process the ends. You can “wear” such a mask for an hour, but this will only make it more effective.
Hair mask in the sauna against hair loss prepared on the basis of honey and burdock oil.
Heat the honey until it becomes more liquid (2 tbsp) and add oil (3 tbsp). Mix everything well and apply it to your hair before your next visit to the steam room.
We wash off the mask when leaving the steam room with shampoo.
Now that the body is cleansed and the hair is moisturized, you can begin body masks in the sauna.
These procedures are done at the very end of the sauna pleasures, because there is no point in going to the steam room after smearing yourself with a nourishing composition - everything will drain together later.
If you're ready to finish vaping, let's move on to this final step.
Body masks in the bath
At the very beginning, you need to clarify that there are masks that you can “put on” in the steam room. These are honey and/or salt based masks that are applied to the body to increase perspiration.
For example, honey and salt scrub mask.
It is prepared using approximately the same amount of ingredients. The honey is heated in the stove and salt is gradually added, making sure that it is thoroughly dissolved. Then the composition is applied to the body and they go to the steam room.
After warming up, the composition is rubbed on the body, carefully treating rough areas, and then washed off.
But the main part of body masks in the bathhouse, as already mentioned, is applied after all procedures.
So, for example, to end a pleasant holiday you can do body mask for cellulite.
To prepare it, we need grapes, or rather freshly squeezed juice.
There may be problems with delivering the juicer to the bathhouse. But there is no need to be upset, we can make do with the means at hand, because we only need 5 tbsp. l. grape juice.
Mix the juice with a tablespoon of oatmeal and a teaspoon of honey, mix everything and apply to problem areas after the steam room and shower.
Keep the mixture for 10 minutes and then massage, simultaneously rolling the mixture off the skin. We wash off the remains in the shower.
Good for moisturizing and nourishing the skin sauna body masks based fermented milk products and fresh fruit.
Milk, kefir, cottage cheese, cream, bananas, cucumbers, and other fruits and vegetables are suitable for this. All ingredients are mixed until a homogeneous mass is dense enough so that it does not spread, and applied to the steamed, cleansed body for 10–20 minutes. Then wash off with water.
For dry skin, it is good to add vegetable oils (observing the dosage), oatmeal, and egg yolk to such mixtures. Oily skin You will feel better if the mask contains protein chicken egg, lemon juice.
The same principle applies to preparing face masks in the sauna.
Face masks in the bath
Steamed and scrubbed skin simply craves nourishment and hydration, so let’s not delay, let’s get started with facial masks in the sauna.
Suitable for nourishing the skin and giving it greater elasticity yeast face mask.
We prepare it from egg yolk (1 pc.), teaspoon vegetable oil and a tablespoon of brewer's yeast. Mix everything thoroughly and apply to the skin. After 10–15 minutes, rinse with warm water.
Suitable for skin especially prone to acne and pimples. honey face mask in the bath.
Let's take a couple of tablespoons natural honey, pre-melted and cooled to normal temperature. Add juice from half a lemon and 1 tbsp. l. wheat bran.
The same mixture can be used as a scrub for problem skin.
You can also do whitening face masks in the sauna.
For these purposes, a cucumber-lemon mask is suitable, which is prepared from 1 grated cucumber, a few drops lemon juice and a teaspoon of cream.
A mask made from algae with cottage cheese has proven itself well. To do this, you need to grind dry seaweed in a coffee grinder and add it to the cottage cheese. The ingredients are taken in equal proportions.
Also don't forget about masks from fresh vegetables and fruits, mixtures with the addition of essential oils.
In general, you can make any mask in a sauna or steam bath, it’s just that its effect will be much deeper, and the effect will be more noticeable than under normal conditions.
In conclusion, one important clarification: after all the scrubs and masks in the bathhouse, you do not need to apply any creams to the body and face. This can be done later, but now your skin has already received enough nutrition and hydration, so don’t overload it with pleasures.
As they say, everything is good in moderation.
