Nuru gel or massage oil?


As everyone probably knows, massage can be done with a wide variety of materials. A few people think that professional massage alone is enough. It is also a key factor in what we choose to do, both in terms of quality and to create an authentic atmosphere and achieve the desired effect. One of the most excellent material used for massage , nuru gel has already conquered Hungary.

For example, if you go for a fat-burning massage, you can most likely expect a capsaicin-containing cream, after all, it is one if not the most effective ingredient in an ointment when it comes to fat burning.

We can find innumerable oils (orange, sandalwood, lemongrass, raspberry or apple), various ointments and special body lotions can be used, but even lava stones, honey and herbs can be used in the process. Of course, the type of massage does not matter, after all, in many cases only one, at most two substances are used for a given type of massage.

But this does not apply to every variant. However, whatever we are talking about, it is extremely important that the material used ensures unhindered movement, which is why many consider traditional massage oil to be the most practical tool, which is probably the most popular. At least in Hungary for sure.

But is there a substance that can be even more slippery, more effective, and even more interesting than oil?

There is such a thing, although it is a lesser-known type of gel in Hungary, which is the nuru gel.

The word “nuru” itself could be translated roughly as “smooth” or “slippery”. It is a Japanese invention (Kawasaki in particular), which indicates both the type of massage (which is the same as a slippery / body-to-body massage) and the material used in the process. It has been used worldwide for over 25 years.

Nuru gel is not oil-based but water-based. This makes it easier to wash (lukewarm water and a dry towel would be enough) and leaves no stains. This means that if you might spill into an unwanted place, you just have to wait a bit and it will evaporate on its own.

Many people suffer from some kind of skin disease, skin irritation, thanks to which various oils or creams are out of the question during a massage. There are some people that are unable to visit a massage parlor because there are no “safe” creams available to them.

Nuru gel, on the other hand, unlike most oils or creams, is 98% natural, does not contain any chemicals or preservatives, so it does not pose a risk to any skin type, its pH is neutral. (Plus, it hydrates, resulting healthy skin.)

However, the question may arise as to why this gel is only 98% natural then. What does the remaining two percent contain?

Well, the reason for this is that under EU packaging / labeling laws it is quasi-impossible to indicate 100% purity for a cosmetic product. The regulation states that all ingredients must be given in the format “INCI” (International Nomenclature Cosmetic Ingredient), which may include natural ingredients that have a chemical name.

Although many people like the different aromas that characterize normal oils, it is a difficult task to find out who is affected by a fragrance, who wants to feel what is on their skin. And if that weren’t enough, the popularity of massage oils will also result in the continued proliferation of cheaper, less quality products, laymen, but often even experts, are often unable to distinguish quality products from shoddy crap.

In the case of nuru gel, such a problem should not arise. This is because not only colorless but odorless material is guaranteed to leave no marks on the skin or even on fabrics (such as clothes, sheets, etc.). If, of course, it is important for someone that the material used is not only slippery, but also has a pleasant smell, then nuru gel may not be the most favorable, but it will definitely be a better choice than other options in terms of certain convenience and quality.

Nuru gel can be used in many ways. In many places, including our salon, it is considered an alternative means of slippery massage, which has also been mentioned in connection with the origin of the word nuru.

But what is the slippery massage?

During to the slippery massage, or body-to-body massage, the masseur or masseuse uses not only his hands but also other parts of the body, in other words, the whole body (torso, buttocks, arms, legs, abdomen, etc.).

The used material is particularly cardinal in this intimate, erotic experience, and nuru gel can be an excellent alternative in this regard as well.

The gel is usually used preheated, but there are no special rules for this, only our imagination can set a limit. For home use, this liquid mass can be diluted to our own taste (beyond the recommended density ratios), and cold as well as hot water can be used for the desired temperature. (Alternatively, the resulting mass can be heated in a microwave oven to any temperature by filling it into a smaller bowl.)

What else is nuru gel good for?

Nuru gel is not only accessible through salons or spa outings. You can even try it in your own home, in any way you want. In addition to massage, it can also be perfect as a lubricant, after all, due to its safe, natural composition and cleanliness, it does not pose a danger to the vaginal epithelium. For this reason, it may even offer a solution to sexual problems (for example, painful coexistence, vaginal dryness, inappropriate foreplay).

But due to the skin-friendly nature of nuru gel, it can even replace various body lotions. Whatever the composition of the ointment, you have to wait a long time for it to dry, making it difficult to use it in everyday life, such as at work or before training. So this water-based material can also be a great option to achieve adequate hydration, as it is absorbed extremely quickly and has no unpleasant after-effects.

In summary, nuru gel can be recommended to anyone. In terms of professional fields, it can be a great raw material for countless people, from masseurs to artificial nail builders. It can help those who are more sensitive to different ointments and need to pay much more attention to it as they hydrate their bodies. Or those who simply want to make their skin softer, silkier.

In addition to detoxification and cleansing, it may be suitable for removing cellulite or treating connective tissue weakness, regenerating tissues after pregnancy. It can serve as an instrument of an interesting, new and refreshing experience in the sexual realm, even for the pleasure of ourselves.

Thus, due to the diverse range of uses, it may be worthwhile for anyone to try their luck with this gel at least once. It is important to expand our knowledge and interests in any area of ​​life, and if we have the opportunity to try out such an exciting, healthy and high-quality achievement, why not live with it?
