  • For maximum benefit leave the products on your skin
  • Replenish fluids with plenty of water and restrict alcohol and caffeine intake
  • Refrain from heat exposure (e.g. sauna, steam room, sunbed), sunbathing and vigorous activities immediately after, as they may prevent full absorption of the oils
