The wraps are effective against cellulite and help improve the shape of the abdomen, buttocks and thighs. Plus, they firm and tone the skin. Of course, it is best to trust qualified specialists, but for those of us who do not have enough funds, it is quite possible to carry out this simple procedure at home. If you choose the right skin care products, the effect will be no worse than the salon. So, you will need:
- cling film (you will wrap yourself in it, you can also use sheets and towels, but the film is still better);
- a comfortable lying surface (couch, tub, or floor, if you like);
- the mask itself for wrapping (herbal, coffee or even chocolate - there are many of them);
- relaxation aids (movie, book, candles, music - whatever you like).
Step 1
Prepare a mask for a cellulite wrap. To do this, you can use essential oils of lavender, lemongrass, sage, sandalwood or rose petals, chamomile, clay (green clay stimulates blood circulation and also removes toxins). For example, take 1 cup of green clay, a cup of sea salt, ¼ cup of sea salt, 2 tbsp. olive oil and 2 cups of water. Boil water with sea salt until it dissolves, turn off the gas and add the rest of the ingredients. Let the mixture cool down.
Step 2
Before applying the slimming mask, it is recommended to cleanse the skin with a scrub.
Step 3
Apply the mixture all over the body or problem areas. Wrap your body in cling film. It is better to wrap from the bottom up, starting from the feet, in such a way as if you were applying a bandage. It is worth doing it tightly, but not very much, it is important that you can move and breathe calmly, but at the same time your “cocoon” does not slip.
Step 4
Lie down for 45 minutes. If you decide to lie down on the bed, it is better to cover it with an old bedspread or sheet so as not to stain the bed with a mask. Relax.
Step 5
After 45 minutes, unfold the film and wash off the slimming mask with warm water. It is very important that the water temperature is not very low or very high! When rinsing, gently massage into skin.
Step 6
Gently dry your skin with a towel. Wear loose clothing to allow your skin to breathe. After such a cellulite wrap, excess fluid will accumulate in the lymphatic system, so it is advisable to drink a couple of glasses of water after the procedure - this will help remove excess fluid from the body.
