The experience
SlimWaist Extra Program is a DIY kit to use in your own home, but I was lucky enough to get a professional to do the work for me – perks of the job! It claims a guaranteed 1cm-3cm loss in the circumference of your stomach after the first use. Sounds like magic if you ask me.
After a quick pre-measure the first step was to massage a few drops of SlimWaist Extra Essential Oil Complex into my stomach for a few minutes. Its blend of peppermint, lemon, juniper, rosemary and Indian cinnamon essential oils apparently promotes circulation and helps strengthen your muscles, which I am definitely lacking in. Next up a small amount of SlimWaist Gel is applied. This works to remove those dreaded fat reserves (yuk) and improve skin elasticity (yay). The Hypoallergenic SlimWaist Film (which resembles gladwrap) was wrapped around my waist a few times followed by the SlimWaist Waist-Band. With my belly firmly cocooned, I’m thinking, will this really work?
But fifty minutes later I’m looking at the tape measure. Measure me again, that can’t be right. But it was – I’d lost a whopping 3.3cms! Slap the SlimWaist Orange Texture Skin Gel on my thighs, pronto. Yes, the kit even tackles cellulite.
I hop, skip, and jump back to work armed with my own SlimWaist Program, which will be my first beauty necessity when I want to slip into a slinky little black dress. And for just $149.95 for the set, which you can use up to 20 times, I’d call it a slim-busting bargain in a box.
