How to use a steam bath
Using the sauna is very simple: just fill the device with water, add a few drops of essential oil (tea tree and jojoba, orange and geranium oil are considered universal). Depending on the model, wait a few minutes for steam to start dispensing. Afterwards, do steam baths: lower your face into the mask (it is included with the device), it takes 5 to 10 minutes until complete steaming. Some models automatically turn off after a certain amount of time.
What are they?
Many users encounter a problem when the entire face does not fit into the inhalation container. This problem arises if you do not pay due attention to the size of the working cavity.
There are 2 types of steam sauna:
- For the treatment of respiratory diseases. It is characterized by a narrow bowl used exclusively for warming the nasopharynx.
- For cosmetic procedures. Volume vessel with additional functionality. In most cases it costs significantly more.
The division into types is very arbitrary, since there are devices that include both types of attachments.
Tips for choosing
The correct choice of device determines the quality of care and the final result. When purchasing, pay attention to a few key points:
- Availability of nozzles, their shape. Simple devices have one attachment in the form of a mask, which is actually used for steaming. Expensive models are equipped with a set of attachments suitable for inhalation and aromatherapy. Assess whether you need them and proceed from your preferences.
- Steam supply temperature adjustment. It is extremely necessary, because high temperatures can be harmful and cause burns to the skin, and insufficient steam production simply will not have any effect on the skin.
- Use during the procedure not only water, but also additives. Users add essential oils and herbal tinctures because they have a positive effect on the skin and improve overall health.
Moisturizing is an important aspect of care
Our body constantly undergoes various metabolic processes. It is moisture that ensures their normal flow. Helping your body stay young and beautiful is very important. But no less important is the ability not to provoke dehydration of the body in general and the skin in particular.

Nutrition. Analyze your diet. Spicy, salty, fried foods lead to metabolic disorders, and the skin does not receive enough moisture.
Water. “No” to soda, coffee, and cheap store-bought juices!
Moisturizing cosmetics. Help your skin. Whether these are store-bought products or homemade recipes, the choice is yours. Visit beauty salons, professionals will conduct moisturizing sessions themselves and tell you about further care. Use hardware humidifiers. Now you know a lot about them.
Equipment for licensing a cosmetology salon.
Salons/clinics providing cosmetology services and falling into the medical category are required to fulfill the following requirements:
- have a medical license
- hire certified medical personnel
- have equipment with a registration certificate (RU) of Roszdravnadzor of the Russian Federation.
We discussed in detail how to find out which services are medical and which are aesthetic in the article “What documents are needed for a cosmetology device?”
When obtaining a medical license, the premises must also be equipped in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation (SanPiN 2.1.3.2630-10 “Sanitary and epidemiological requirements for organizations engaged in medical activities”, order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of Russia dated April 18, 2012 No. 381n).
According to this order, there must be 3 rooms in the room: a doctor’s office, a manipulation room, and a treatment room. At the same time, the manipulation room is equipped with a professional vaporizer without fail (Order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of Russia dated April 18, 2012 N 381n “On approval of the Procedure for providing medical care to the population in the field of cosmetology”).
Therefore, a professional vaporizer is a basic medical equipment. Its presence is mandatory in salons and clinics providing medical services. The vaporizer must have a Registration Certificate.
