Before you start wrapping, you need to prepare your skin. It should be as clean as possible so that the active mixture is absorbed into it as best as possible. Here it is better not to be limited only to washing, but also to apply a scrub on the skin, distribute, rub with a washcloth and rinse with water.

Rules for applying formulations for wrapping:

1. On the day of the procedure, it is recommended to eat light food, such as kefir, yogurt. Before and after the procedure, it is undesirable to eat for 2-2.5 hours. It is better to choose the evening time to make it easier for the body to recover from the shake.

If after 15 minutes the rash or irritation on the skin does not appear, you can proceed to the wrapping procedure.
3. The prepared mixture must be evenly applied in a thin layer on problem areas of the body, then carefully wrap them in several layers of cling film.
4. Leave to act for a while. The holding period is different for each mixture and should not be kept longer. It is impossible for the procedure to produce severe discomfort. If there are significant painful sensations, it is recommended to complete the procedure at this point.
5. At the end of the session, the rest of the mixture must be washed off in the shower with warm water, which will remove sweat and harmful substances, and will have a relaxing effect.
6. After washing, a moisturizing or anti-cellulite cream is applied to the skin - it is perfectly absorbed and will increase the effectiveness of the procedure.
