It Works! Ultimate Body Applicator Wrap Review!! (It really does work! :-) )

For the past number of years I've been really into fitness and diet, and I do tend to be a little cautious of products that claim to make you in any way slimmer, so I was a little cautious but also really curious when I was asked to test and review the It Works! Ultimate Body Wrap.

I decided to try this last week as I havent really been my usual self lately when it comes to the excercise and diet, so I was feeling a bit bloated and I felt as I was planning on getting back into a proper routine this might be just the little kick start and pick me up I needed!

The wrap should be worn for 45 minutes. Its a thin sheet of material covered in a lotion which you need to place lotion-side down on whatever area of the body you choose. I chose to wrap it around my tummy area, as I think thats where most of us women feel that bloat and carry extra water/toxins. There is a really nice smell from the wrap, not surprising when you look at the ingredients as it contains the likes of green tea extract and menthol. When you have the wrap in place you need to secure it with a band or tight clothing. After the wrap has been on a few minutes you'll start to feel a slight tingling sensation, similar to the feel of menthol on the skin, like a the sensation that you might be used to from good anti cellulite creams!

Its important to note that although you will notice results after the 45 minutes, it takes a full 72 hours to see the full results. During this time you need to drink loads of water - the recommendation is 3 litres.

So, 3 days later I can honestly say I certainly looked tighter, more toned and my skin appeared to have gained benefits too, it looked smooth and hydrated. Personally, I would recommend these wraps together with healthy eating and an excercise routine. I feel it will add to the benefits of your excercise routine and give you that extra "edge" you need to feel really great. To me, nothing can replace the benefits of eating right and staying fit - but these wraps are a very welcome boost, perhaps if you have an occasion coming up that you want to feel extra good for! Being realistic, they wont do much for you if youre going to use the wraps, take off after 45 minutes and throw yourself on the couch and eat a bag of chips!

Remember that you can literally use these wraps on any area of the body..arms, legs, even under the chin!
