Cleanse and rinse your face as normal.
Sprinkle some baking soda onto your fingertips and rub it gently into your still-damp skin, avoiding the eye area. If you share your house with little ones, you can borrow one of those baby washcloths, but be gentle and use almost no pressure. Baking soda is mildly abrasive and therefore exfoliant. It also dissolves fats, so any sebum built up on the surface of your skin will be cleaned away.
Rinse thouroughly.
While your skin is still wet, spread some honey on it. The thin and crinkly bits around your eyes can take some too, just be sure to keep it out of your eyes themselves. Honey is a natural humectant (it attracts moisture), is very nourishing, and has antibiotic properties. Let it sit on your face for a few minutes, while you do the whole brushing/flossing thing.
Rinse. Pat dry.
At least once try sleeping without your moisturizer after doing this; let your skin breathe all night.
