Hand & Foot Paraffin
Cosmetic benefits:
Cosmetically, paraffin wax is often applied to the hands and feet. The wax is a natural emollient, helping make skin supple and soft. When applied to the skin, it adds moisture and continues to boost the moisture levels of the skin after the treatment is complete.
​
It can also help open pores and remove dead skin cells. That may help make the skin look fresher and feel smoother.
​
Please note if you have very sensitive skin, paraffin wax may cause heat rash. Heat rash results in small red bumps on the skin that can be itchy and uncomfortable.
​​
​You should not use paraffin wax if you have:
-
poor blood circulation
-
numbness in your hands or feet
-
diabetes
-
any rashes or open sores
If you have a chemical sensitivity, you may develop minor swelling or breakouts from the wax treatment. That’s because paraffin comes from petroleum products.
