Cosmetics for massage: are there any contraindications

There are no special contraindications for the use of certain massage products. You must understand that the procedure itself has its contraindications and in case of serious deviations no massage is performed.

If there are no contraindications to massage, you should pay attention to existing allergies and hypersensitivity to certain substances. This will avoid rashes and swelling after the procedure.

Facial massage can be performed either with or without the use of massage products. There are massage techniques that are performed only on dry skin, for example, rolling. But skin drainage requires more oil.

After the procedure, it is also recommended to use skin care products.
