Spanish term or phrase: envoltura de algas microestrelladas
Hi all! This is from a list of Spa treatments. "envoltura de algas" is "seaweed wrap", any suggestions for "microestrelladas"? There are several G-hits for "algas microestrelladas" but I can't find an English version. ¡Socorroooo! I've been at it for hours!
Many thanks. (ASAP, as usual!)
