Random Post : Proskins Slim - 52 days later - My Review

 By: Unknown    01:33  No comments

I  really must apologise ....you were meant to get this second review after 34 days but I decided to delay so as to be able to talk about maintenance and also because Easter with all it's chocolate moments came up and I felt like an absolute fraud talking about slim leggings whilst stuffing my face......

So first of all, lets start with what I did - I wore the top and leggings for 8 hours a day minimum, generally much longer for the first 28 days. Then I shortened it to a minimum of 6 hrs per day but still every day and this is still my current behaviour. I also try my best to wear them after a big meal.

So lets review the claims individually

Claim 1: Reduces the Appearance of Cellulite

As already mentioned, the cellulite on my thighs has reduced a lot, and my thighs feel firmer, a little dimple or two are still there so it wasn't completely eliminated but then again my diet hasn't exactly been stellar of late.

Claim 2: Reduces Water Intention

Yes, yes and yessss. I still think this is probably the best  part about these products, they really minimise bloating,  I sleep in them after gluttony dinners and my stomach won't be bloated the next day :)

Claim 3: Tones and Moisturises

This is still not really anything I have anything to say much about .....my skin is always dry in winter and it was still dry throughout these 52 days.

Claim 4: Regulates Body Temperature

Yes but bear in mind that the fabric is not wind blocking, if it is the warmth factor you are after, wear another layer on top,  I feel really comfortable when I wear them

To Summarise: I still think these products are a great, amazing invention and in fact I'm thinking of getting a capri pair of leggings / shorts to wear over the summer period :D 

These products are available to purchase in Malta - ‘Proskins Malta’ on Facebook or call 9983 2022.

Random Post : Proskins Slim - 24 days later - My Review

 By: Unknown    02:52  No comments

I was planning on writing my review on the Proskins Slim Clothes after the 28 day challenge had passed but have already gotten way too many requests from all of you asking me how I'm finding them --- so I decided that you're getting this review now and since I have no intention of stopping to wear these clothes..you can get another one in 10 days time.

So first of all lets start with what I did - I wore the top and leggings for 8 hours a day minimum, generally longer for 24 days. I sometimes slept in them, but in general, I found this not to be as comfy as sleeping with my pjs.

So lets review the claims individually

Claim 1: Reduces the Appearance of Cellulite

They Worked!! I was quite impressed by this - I saw a change after just two weeks in the  on my legs and I think it has reduced by quite a bit, there's still a bit left but I think this will probably go as I continue to wear them. I had expected them to take much longer to work.

Claim 2: Reduces Water Intention

YES !!! This is probably the best and worst part about these products, let me rephrase, they are the best and worst things to wear after a big meal. Best because they really work and help minimise bloating and worst because they feel uncomfortable around your expanded stomach. I slept in them after a few big dinners and the difference in how bloated my stomach was the day after amazed me....

Claim 3: Tones and Moisturises

Not really sure about this one, I did feel the tonality of the skin on my thighs improved but I'm also a regular gym goer and the type of workouts I do (I change these around) also makes a difference...re moisturising, I still got dry skin, not sure if this is less or the same than when I don't wear them.

Claim 4: Regulates Body Temperature

Yes and No: The top is an excellent base layer...I tend to freeze and this really makes a difference, it keeps me warm in cold environments and at the same time I don't start sweating in stuffy places or when the lovely bright sun is out. The fabric is however not in any way wind blocking so when I wore the leggings alone, I still felt cold especially in the wind..however, when I wore them under thin tights they worked much better and I was super comfy running around in them all day in Florence.

Lots of you have asked me how to wear them..I wear them under shorts, under skirts, under long tunic tops, under loose fitting trousers and once even under jeans!

Wearing My Proskins!

To Summarise: I think these products are a great, amazing invention and I will definitely purchase again when they've run their course...brilliant way to shape up for bikini season

Random Post : Awaiting a Pair of Proskins Leggings

 By: Unknown    06:15  No comments

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….
