Every self -respecting woman probably wants to extend her youth and look great even in adulthood. For this, modern ladies acquire expensive masks and creams, limit themselves in nutrition and regularly visit beauty salons, where various cosmetic procedures try on themselves. But, unfortunately, not all women have the opportunity to visit cosmetic institutions, so they will probably be interested in the methods of carrying out some salon procedures at home. One of these procedures is paraffin therapy, which allows you to remove small wrinkles from the skin or face, to saturate the skin with moisture and make it more fit and beautiful. Fortunately for lovers of this procedure, you can spend it at home. How to do hand -to -house paraffin therapy at home?
First, let’s say a few words about why paraffin therapy sessions are so useful. Paraffin is a substance that can retain heat for a long time without burning the skin. Under the influence of gradually increasing heat, the sweat glands of the skin begin to work more actively, and toxins begin to be excreted from the body. In the skin cleared in this way, blood circulation and metabolism are enhanced, as a result of which it is moistened and acquires a healthy color. In addition, when paraffin cools, the effect of massage occurs – paraffin, cooling, pulls and squeezes the skin of the hands or face.
In order to conduct a hand for the hand of a house at home, you will need:
Bath, in the role of which an enameled pan, ceramic or glass dishes can act.
Paraffin purified cosmetic – it can be purchased in pharmacies or specialized cosmetics stores. Quite often on sale you can find paraffin with additives of herbs or vitamins, which is even more useful for the skin.
Polyethylene gloves.
Woolen gloves or terry towels.
Before you start directly to the paraffin therapy session, the skin of the hands must be prepared correctly for it. To do this, you need to wash your hands, peel them and apply your usual cosmetic cream with a thin layer.
Next, proceed to the preparation of paraffin. Put the paraffin in the dish and heat it in a water bath. It is more convenient for some ladies to heat paraffin in the microwave – this is also allowed. The main thing is that its heating occurs slowly.
Now proceed directly to the paraffin therapy of the hands. Lower your hands into a liquid paraffin, then raise them and hold it for a while above the bath so that the excess paraffin, and the desired one is fixed on the skin. Then again lower your hands into the paraffin and raise them again. As a result, three layers of paraffin should be in your hands. During the procedure, do not forget that the fingers must be placed so that paraffin can act on the whole skin. Now put on your hands plastic gloves and wrap your hands in terry towels. If you have assistants, then instead of terry towels you can use woolen gloves prepared in advance.
Keep paraffin in hand it is preferably until it cools it. Then the gloves must be removed, and the paraffin from the skin of the hands is carefully removed. Usually the effect is visible after the first procedure – the skin on the hands becomes velvet and looks beautiful and young.
Like any procedure, paraffin therapy has contraindications. So, it cannot be carried out if you have wounds, inflammation or dermatosa in your hands. If you suffer from diabetes, hypertension or angina pectoris, paraffin therapy should only be done after the resolution of your doctor.
