Sculpt Down

Apart from going to Zumba twice a week, I don't really do much exercise. I have been considering going to the gym but I don't want to waste my money if I know I won't go regularly. There are so many 'Quick Fix' products on the market that claim to make you look slimmer or get rid of Celliute over night, BUT how many off them really work ...?
Soap & Glory's affordable range of 'Celliute' and 'Slimming' combating products.

     Not long ago I bought some samples from Thalgo's 'Slim & Sculpt' range. They normally retail at the £40 plus mark for full size, however I was able to get samples for £8 from 'Latest in Beauty'. I know deep down 'Quick Fixes' generally don't work or don't have a lasting effect but I was curious to try a 'Celliute' / 'Slimming product for myself...
Thalgo's Cellu-Thighs and Flat Stomach (50 ml)
Due to a mistake in my original order I ended up receiving two tubes of the 'Cellu-Thighs', so this will give me a fair amount of time to trial it as this product claims to achieve slimmer legs in just 14 days! I don't hold much hope on the 'Flat Stomach' but we can only hope!  

I am going to start using these products from tomorrow (14/06/2012), but I'm not sure how to document the progress (if any)... any ideas? I'm not sure if I feel comfortable taking photos just yet!

Have you guys tried any 'Celliute' or 'Slimming' products? Did they work or were they a, lets be frank, a load of bullshit? It would be interesting to here your thoughts x

    1. I'm going to try the Soap and Glory Slimwear because I've got a coupon to get 300 Boots points ...lol. I don't have great expectations for these products but I will give them a good. There aren't even any instructions on how to use it (if there's a specific way) I guess just slap it on I guess x

    2. You need to massage it well over the desired area.

  2. Hi...these products don't work alone. They will accelerate slimming down with your daily exercise & diet. It is just add-on to your weight loss regime. I have seen people slim down with it, but they did regular exercise & followed strict diet.

    Zumba is a great way of exercising...I have one of their CD & ITS so fun to do it.

  4. I have never tried these products, but people around me have. Some tips I can give you: massage it really well and sometimes it has more effect if you use it more than once a day (twice is enough, from what I've heard)

    I'm curious what the results will be with you!

    Thank you so much for your sweet comment and follow! I'm following you too! On GFC and Bloglovin :) Do you have twitter too? I don't see an icon :)

    Have a nice week! X

    1. Hey Sal, I've been massaging it, into my skin once before I go to bed and once in the mornings. I guess I'm a little impatient but I don't see a difference - but I wasn't expecting too much xx

      I do have a twitter but I don't use it much xxx

  6. I have used Slimwear by Soap and Glory and I quite liked it but its no miracle product. It feels minty on your thighs though so that's lovely in itself. I'm sure I did see some sort of difference with it though but I was also going to the gym 3-5 times a week so its hard to tell. xx

    1. It was probably the gym that did it lol. I'm going to use up these samples and then get the Soap and Glory Slimwear and see how that compares. I wasn't expecting too much from these products to be honest but a girl can dream can't she lol xx

  7. Even if any of the products make a difference, it's only temporary.
    I read an article some ago and based on that what works best to reduce appearance of cellulite, like home remedies. And they rated coconut oil or coffee as the best long-term benefit products.

    Great blog-btw. You have a new follower :)
