Take a large bowl with ice water and dip your face in it. Make sure you have a headwrap on so that your hair doesn’t get wet.

Make sure you don’t dip your face in the water for more than 15 seconds. Remember, the drier your skin type, the lesser should be the amount of time you immerse your face in the water.
