Choose the one that suits you to avoid any build-up of rashes and acne.
Now, let's get to know about a few wraps and see how to they work wonders for your body.

Chocolate wrap revitalises your skin, giving it a smooth and supple texture. Because of its hydrating property, it also helps in reducing wrinkles. It moisturises the skin and gives a radiant glow. It works on your cellulite as well. The smell of cocoa releases endorphin hormone, which induces the feeling of happiness and wellbeing.
Algae wrap
Applying a warm algae paste as a wrap nourishes and detoxifies the skin. It gives you a truly mesmerising experience by toning your skin. Algae contains high levels of iodine that speeds up the metabolism process. As a result, the body burns more fat. So, this is a last-minute measure for weight loss, especially for soon-to-be brides who try to lose inches till the last possible hour.
Mud wrap
A layer of therapeutic mud firms the skin, improves blood circulation, heals the pain and improves elasticity of the skin. Due to its anti-stress properties, mud draws out impurities from the body. Apart from flushing out toxins, it also tones your body.

Herbal wrap
Even herbal wraps make you look leaner and more toned. Different herbs such as lavender, rosemary, chamomile, lemongrass, etc. are mixed with oils and put in extremely hot water. Cloth sheets are then dipped in this solution and wrapped around the body. The herbal qualities of this wrap aid detoxification and blood purification. It nourishes the skin, removes dead skin cells and tones your body. This can also be performed at home.
