Cosmetic brands turn to slimming opportunities too

by Penny on May 16, 2010



In the world of beauty, it is not only make up and skin care that does it. That’s why these days even the cosmetic brands get into slimming products. I’m sure without naming names we can already think of a few that offers slimming creams and oils to help burn fats.

The reason I’m bringing up this topic is because I recently receive an invitation from a particular cosmetic skin care brand of which I’m a member. I’ve not receive a lot of things from them in a while but I noticed that the more recent invitations that I’ve been getting are mostly targeted towards the slimming products rather than the skin care.

I’ve never been for the events but I suppose it’s where they’ll give you some samples of the products and tell you it’s a better way than to deal with diet pill side effects if you wish to cut off a few pounds.

Right after I delivered, I actually did try out a brand where I bought their cream to reduce tummy fats. I was informed by the lady that if I were a couch potato, then I can’t hope to see any improvements. I was glad she was honest about the product’s effectiveness in that sense. I guess there’s no product that really works its magic without you doing anything else. So true enough I bought the product, used it quite diligently but was still a couch potato. Obviously it didn’t work for me and I couldn’t be bothered with more products after that since I know myself, that I won’t get into the exercising mode so more of such products won’t do much for me.

How about you? Tried any of such products and did they work for you without you doing anything else?
