Product Description (Function, Benefits, and Target Consumer)
A professional product developed with an innovative approach to combat cellulite and localized fat. Designed to enhance slimming cosmetics with an anti-aging effect, it delivers an intensive treatment that also counteracts premature skin aging in toxin-damaged tissues.
Its technology is based on synergistic mineral powders that, shaped by the aesthetic professional, transform into two different “cosmetic devices” (stone and cast). These generate heat, making them highly effective in reducing body imperfections.
Fuoco, a symbol of energy, evokes the volcanic origin of some minerals in the line’s formulations, reinforcing its powerful and transformative action.
Product Innovation
Addressing body imperfections is not always easy and can cause psychological discomfort for consumers. Feeling dissatisfied with one’s appearance and believing that body reshaping is unattainable requires instilling confidence. The consumer’s cooperation and state of relaxation during professional body treatments are essential for achieving results.
This product has been designed and introduced to the market in an innovative and truly original way, offering both confidence and rapid results. It also enhances sensory well-being, positively impacting emotional balance during application.
The development of this technology involved close collaboration between R&D specialists and experts in manual techniques.
Product Claims & Benefits
"Everything, instantly." FUOCO Sculpting Heating Powder Body DIORITI STONE & CAST ensures immediate results and effectiveness against body imperfections. It simultaneously combats issues causing cellulite, localized fat, loss of tone, and skin aging.
This sculpting heating powder allows for customized body treatments:
• Used as a Cast, it sculpts and reshapes the silhouette.
• Shaped into a Dioriti Stone, it combines with oil for a warm, smoothing massage, enhancing sensory well-being.
Research, Clinical Tests & Trials Results (Safety & Dermatological)
For professional use, this product allows for the creation of two different treatments, which both act to generate heat to counteract body imperfections such as cellulite, fat deposits, and loss of tone. The product’s technology is based on synergistic mineral powders that, shaped by the aesthetic professional, transform into two different cosmetic devices: a stone and a body cast. These generate heat, making them highly effective in reducing body imperfections. The stone is created by mixing a sachet of powder with water, to shape two stones in the palm of the hand. When used to massage with Vagheggi Body dry touch oil, the stones release spontaneous heat, enhancing both the action of reducing body imperfections, alongside offering sensory benefits. The cast, meanwhile, is created by mixing one sachet of powder with water to create a smooth paste, which is applied to the body over disposable leggings. This acts to promote the absorption of any previously applied functional products while sculpting the body. Among the powder’s ingredients are calcium sulfate, sea silt, and magnesium sulfate.

How to use it
FUOCO Sculpting Heating Powder Body DIORITI STONE & CAST has been developed based on the latest cosmetic and scientific innovations to address all manifestations of body imperfections with immediate action. The key ingredients in its formulation are diorite, a volcanic mineral created by the cooling of magma and rich in silica, iron, aluminum, and manganese, and volcanic sand—both with powerful mineralizing properties.
Diorite and volcanic sand are shaped by the hands, generating spontaneous heat and creating cosmetic devices with vasomotor action. These are used for professional body treatments that deliver immediate results to the consumer.
This product enables the creation of customized body treatments: the sculpting heating powder can be used as a cast (Cast) to shape the body, or as Dioriti Stone for a warm, smoothing massage. Professional body treatments with FUOCO Sculpting Heating Powder Body DIORITI STONE & CAST become a true sensory experience. The formulations, deep manual techniques, heat generation, and use of the sculpting heating powder provide unique sensations of effectiveness and well-being.
From a graphical perspective, the product’s packaging features a brick-red color that evokes the earth’s warmth and natural essence. It also meets sustainability and environmental respect criteria: it is made from corrugated cardboard, a 100% recyclable material.
