3 Hacks Every Eco-fin User Should Know

Eco-fin is already a favorite for spa treatments—an eco-friendly, skin-loving alternative to traditional paraffin. But did you know there are a few easy tricks to make it even more useful and convenient? These simple hacks will help you get the most out of Eco-fin while wowing your clients with creative, luxurious treatments. The video below highlights two of them.

1. Prep It Once, Use It Again

Looking to save time and reduce waste? This hack is a must-try. Melt your Eco-fin at the start of the day so it’s ready whenever you need it. If there’s any left over, no worries! Simply remove it from the cabi, store it in an airtight container at room temperature, and re-melt it the next day. It’s an easy way to minimize waste and keep your workflow running smoothly while still delivering exceptional service.

2. Towel Cabi Trick for Body Exfoliation

For a luxurious body exfoliant, try this easy hack. Melt two Eco-fin cubes in a rubber mixing bowl and place it in your hot towel cabinet for about 25 minutes. Once melted, mix in your favorite exfoliating ingredient, like 1.5 teaspoons of fine French sea salt. Stir until blended, and you have a hydrating and smoothing treatment ready to go. Mix up larger batches if you’re short on time. Just store them at room temperature and give them a good stir before using.

3. No Mitts or Booties? No Problem!

So, you’re out of mitts or booties? Don’t sweat it—steamed towels to the rescue!
Here’s how to make it work:

  • Apply Eco-fin like you normally would.
  • Wrap the area with a warm, steamed towel.
  • Layer a dry towel on top to hold in the heat.

Not only does this trick work like a charm, but the warm, aromatic towels add an extra layer of relaxation for your clients.

Why This Works

This treatment is a total game-changer. The exfoliant removes dead skin cells while Eco-fin’s oils deeply hydrate. The result? Skin that’s silky, supple, and oh-so-glowy. Plus, it’s quick and easy, making it a fantastic add-on to your body treatments.

With these simple hacks, Eco-fin becomes even more versatile and easy to use, helping you deliver top-notch treatments with less effort. Whether you’re saving time, reducing waste, or getting creative with what you have on hand, these tips are sure to enhance both your workflow and your clients’ experience. Give them a try and see the difference for yourself!
