Hello, all!
This DIY is very interesting and delicious as well. We are working with cocoa, hence the delicious part. While making this DIY, my kitchen smelled heavenly of rich cocoa and even when I used it. I love this DIY because it has some of my favourite ingredients. Let’s see how to make this delicious body wrap!
Ingredients:
⦁ Cocoa Powder
⦁ Honey
⦁ Banana
⦁ Lemon Juice
⦁ Buttermilk/Milk
⦁ Gram Flour/Besan
Method:
1. In a bowl, take a piece of banana and add some buttermilk to it. You can use milk as well.
2. Now, add cocoa powder to it. Make sure you are using pure cocoa powder which is unsweetened and not hot chocolate powder.
3. Then add some honey and lemon juice. This mixture will already start smelling heavenly by this time. Go ahead and mix it well. Break down the banana into little pieces with the help of a fork.
4. My mixture turned out to be very liquidy. Hence I added some besan to thicken up the mixture.
You can add some face pack powder to thicken it up as well.
5. Mix everything very well.
6. Your body wrap is ready to be used.
Usage:
Usually, the body wrap is applied after taking a bath with warm water. Apply a generous amount of the pack on your body and massage it for 2-3 minutes. This will improve the blood circulation. Then you have to take a towel and wrap it around your body and let the wrap do its magic. Keep it for 10-15 minutes or more and then you can wash it off with lukewarm water. If you don’t want you to use a cloth to wrap, you can use this wrap as a body pack too.
