The recipe itself is quite easy and just requires seaweed powder, a carrier oil, essential oils and wrap tools; the total time it takes to do this wrap is just 30 minutes.
YOU WILL NEED:
-
3 tbsp. Seaweed Powder
-
6 tbsp. carrier oil
-
A few drops essential oil (grapefruit and peppermint essential oils are wonderful options)
-
plastic wrap
-
warm water
-
blanket or large towel
DIRECTIONS:
-
In a bowl, mix the powder, oil and essential oil together and slowly add the warm water until the consistency is thick and mud-like (not too watery).
-
Apply while standing in your bathtub or shower for a mess free application. If someone is willing to help you apply it – even better! Smooth over with hands or a large paint brush covering hips, thighs, buttocks and any other areas of concern.
-
Next wrap areas with plastic wrap. Ace bandages works as well and are reusable making them a bit more eco-friendly!
-
Grab a towel that you don’t mind getting messy and lie on it. Then take another large towel and cover yourself. You may begin to sweat.
-
Rest for 20 minutes and then unwrap and shower the ingredients off with warm water.
-
Be sure to rehydrate by drinking a tall glass of cool water.
