Just changed my mind about using steam for every client

I had a client with really sensitive rosacea who kept having flare ups after her facials. I thought the steam would help open her pores, but it was making things worse. It took me almost a full year and talking to a derm at a conference to finally get it. The heat was a major trigger for her. I switched to just using a cool, damp compress for her pre cleanse step and her skin calmed down in two weeks. Has anyone else had to drop a standard step for certain skin types?

Yep, dropped steam for all my rosacea clients now.

Dropped steam" sounds like the best spa day upgrade ever.
