I love a good self-care moment—setting aside a few extra minutes to unwind makes all the difference in the midst of a hectic work week. While I’m all for taking a luxurious bath or doing an at-home manicure, giving myself a facial has been my new favorite method of relaxation. Plus, it only takes two items to turn my tiny apartment bathroom into a makeshift spa, and those are a trusted face mask and a facial steamer.
A Facial Steamer Is the One Skincare Tool I Won’t Live Without & This New Launch Just Confirmed Why
I’ve tried a few different consumer-friendly facial steamers in the past, but none have quite measured up to PMD Beauty’s new SilkSteam Pro. Don’t be fooled by its small design—it’s mightier than it looks.

Buying a facial steamer may seem excessive and unnecessary, but trust me when I say, you won’t regret doing so. There are numerous benefits to using one: It can increase absorption of your skincare products, hydrate your skin, soften blackheads and remove excess sebum all at once. Plus, it just feels so dang good during and after use, especially if you’ve been sweating it out all day amidst the summer heat.
The SilkSteam Pro is marketed as a spa-grade facial steamer, and as someone who has experienced many professional facials, I’d agree it feels very similarly to the kinds estheticians utilize. It heats up rather quickly—30 seconds, to be exact—to release a gentle and warm cloud-like steam that doesn’t feel too aggressive against the skin. Its adjustable nozzle is also designed to provide you with precise, focused steam so you can get it right where you need it most. One of the major selling points for me is that it’s lightweight enough for me to pick up and move slowly across my face.

I like to use the facial steamer on bare skin first to open up my pores before going in with my face mask. I’ll then let the stream engulf my skin with the mask on for a couple of minutes before letting the product work its magic—and I really feel like this has made a difference in how my skin looks and feels.
The PMD SilkSteam Pro is compact, easy to use (and store away!) and will make for a true gift to yourself. Use our code StyleCaster to get 25 percent off your order.
