What you need

1 ripe Papaya
1 roll of cling wrap or body wrap

Instructions

Papaya is rich in papain, a natural exfoliant that gently removes dead skin cells while promoting a radiant, even-toned complexion. Combined with yogurt for probiotics and moisture, and a touch of honey for its healing and hydrating properties, this body wrap delivers a spa-quality glow right in your bathroom.

Perfect for dull, dry, or sun-kissed skin, this wrap is 100% natural, chemical-free, and packed with skin-loving nutrients that leave your body feeling soft, smooth, and refreshed. Whether you’re preparing for a special occasion or simply indulging in some much-needed self-care, this DIY treatment is a feel-good ritual that your skin will thank you for.

Take your ripe papaya and mash it to a paste-like consistency.

Coat your body in the Papaya mash and wrap your skin with cling wrap to trap in all the enzymes and natural goodness.

Allow to sit for 20 mins and then unwrap and wash off.

Your skin should be exfoliated and polished.

Together with alpha hydroxy acids, papain acts as a gentle exfoliator that dissolves  protein and dead dry skin cells. Using papaya on the skin will leave your skin soft, smooth and supple. Heals dry, flaky skin. Reduces visibility of acne scars and dark spots.
