Random Post : Proskins Slim - Random Q&A



Soooo..as you know I've been undergoing the PROSKINS SLIM 28-day challenge and my final review will be coming next week but in the meantime I'm going to answer some questions I keep getting asked by interested ppl.

How is the sizing? 
The leggings are quite stretchy and roomy..if you're between sizes I'd suggest you go for the smaller option. The top on the other hand, I found has a smaller and shorter fit so be a bit more careful with this especially if you have a generous bust or a long torso.

Do they feel very tight?
Unless you buy too small a size neither the top nor the leggings should feel too tight ..after a big meal the leggings did feel tight around the waist but that is true of most clothes I own, barring my pjs. However, they are not compression-style leggings meaning they do not work by compressing your body.

Do they make you hot?
NO! Actually they regulate your body temperature to stop you from feeling too hot or cold.

Do they last forever?
No, the company states that their lifespan is a 100 washes and ideally these are hand washes and fabric conditioner should never be used.

Do you need to sleep in them?
No, the 6 to 8 hours stretch can be inserted into a 24-hour day whichever way you prefer, some people find simply sleeping in them to be easier to accommodate into their lives,

Can they be worn as trousers?
No but that is true of any leggings and that's what these are..they are thick..they are made of lovely fabric but they cannot be used instead of trousers.

Random Post : Awaiting a Pair of Proskins Leggings

Today is one of those days where I am actually waiting desperately for my phone to ring.. at some point I should receive a phone call telling me that my Slim by Proskinsleggings are waiting for me outside.

I have been eagerly awaiting their arrival for a while now, they were supposed to be in my possession along with a ¾ sleeve top a few weeks ago but due to a cruel twist of fate, a spectacular international rise in demand, and my size being one of the most popular..it was difficult to get my hands on them. 

Finally it seems that the brilliant director of the Maltese local distribution Mike Mangion has managed to locate a pair in my size and they are finally on their way to my legs.




So what’s all the fuss about?


Well first of all as a heads up these products are now finally available in Malta - ‘Proskins Malta’ on Facebook

The marketing blurb:
Proskins is a lycra compression garment which aims to help reduce the appearance of cellulite and also controls body temperature. The products incorporate an array of anti-cellulite ingredients, including retinol, caffeine and aloe vera. These ingredients are packed into millions of micro capsules that are woven into the yarn.  Clinical and sensorial tests claim that, when worn for 28 consecutive days for 6-8 hours at a time, Slim by Proskins offers up to 76% slimming efficacy, 65% efficacy in the reduction of fat nodes, and can reduce up to two centimetres around the thigh area. Additionally, of those testing Slim by Proskins, 63% noticed a reduction in their cellulite, 67% felt their jeans were looser, and 72% felt a lightness sensation.

"65% efficacy in the reduction of fat nodes"

My blurb:
I’m usually sceptical about these products and really look down on them ..which to be honest is what I initially did when I was told about their existence but a friend of mine claimed that they really worked on her and she’s really not the type to buy into fads so I investigated and well there are lots of positive reviews and very few negative and at the very least everyone seems to agree that they soften the skin and control body temperature.

"a friend of mine claimed that they really worked on her"

My Experience:


Not sure if you understood me from the first part but I have been wearing the ¾ sleeve top for these few weeks (8 hrs a day) and I love it – why? my skin is softer, when I’m bloated , the bloating goes down fasted and most importantly my body temperature is generally stable … I am not constantly freezing anymore. Did I lose weight? I’m pear shaped ..I don’t have any weight to lose on my upperbody..but I am prone to slight bloating and this top seems to really help with that.

"I am not constantly freezing anymore"


My legs on the other hand, have fat and cellulite that I have politely asked to leave more than once so the leggings will have what to work their banishing magic on. So the challenge is 28 days 6-8 hrs a day …I will keep you updated throughout the 28 days as to my progress..in the meantime ..ring phone ring….
