What Are The Active Ingredients In Detoxifying Body Wraps







Body wraps made with detoxifying ingredients are designed to cleanse the body of toxins and enhance the skin's appearance. The wraps facilitate sweating and open up the pores so the body can absorb the vitamins and minerals in the wrap.


Seaweed


Seaweed contains compounds that heat up the body and encourage sweating; this speeds the release of toxins and promotes deep relaxation. Amino acids and vitamins in the seaweed help nourish skin cells.


Caffeine


Ground coffee beans or coffee extracts can stimulate circulation and promote lymphatic drainage as part of the detoxification process.


Eucalyptus Oil


Eucalyptus oil soothes and tones the skin. It also stimulates blood circulation because it helps heat up the body as part of the detox.


Avocado Oil


Avocado oil softens the skin and helps the body absorb and maintain the other ingredients in the wrap.


Sesame Oil


Sesame oil acts as an antioxidant that protects the skin throughout the detoxification process and acts as a moisturizing, skin-softening agent.
