What is a Massage Gel?
If the words oily, or acne-prone come to mind in relation to your skin, or your client's skin, then a lightweight gel formula is recommended.
Therapists trust massage gel for providing oil-free hydration, minus all the grease of massage oil and other mediums. Gels are a great choice for combination skin types.
Key Features of Massage Gels
- Gels are transparent and are absorbed quickly by the skin
- Can be oil-based or water-based
- Most gels won't stain sheets
- Often work well in hotter months
For therapeutic massage, many RMTs prefer gels. They are a great choice during the summer hot months.
- Massage gels are lightweight, transparent and often water baed
- A gel usually has the appearance of a jelly, and is transparent
- It looks like the cross between a solid and a liquid medium, but does not behave like either
- Gels are actually closer in structure to a liquid than solids
Massage gels are transparent formulas that contain cellulose ethers and/or carbromer in water or use a water-alcohol mixture. Gels provide great glide and workability. They come in different colours and are absorbed faster through the skin than creams or lotions.
