All salons use additionally thermo-blankets that enhance the effect. At home any warm blanket is suitable. After thirty minutes of chocolate relaxation, the film is removed and the mixture is washed off with ordinary warm water.
Refrain from eating heavy foods( smoked, roasted), alcohol, coffee and sweets the next 24 hours after wrapping.
