This is an amazing product. For 8 months now, after I shower, I massage this product into my body, just like it tells you in the instructions that come with it, and I can tell you truthfully, I really feel that it is working wonders for my body and is an elegant treat at the end of my workouts. I don't know if it's because it improves circulation that helps to speed metabolism, reduce bloating or whatever, but in conjuction with a healthy diet and yoga/pilates, I definitely feel that unsightly cellulite has been reduced, my whole body has become more slender, and not to mention the reduction in stress and a general sense of calm from the wonderful aromatherapy of the essential oils. Furthermore, it has worthy moisturizing properties.
I also use Expert Contour Slimming Aromatic Fluid during the day after applying the body concentrate and the Decleor Aromessence Contour Balm in the evenings. |

| I would say that a bottle of this stuff could last you 3-4 months, depending on how much you use at a time and how often you use it. I usually use about 4-5 squirts for my legs and thighs, 3-4 for my arms, 1-2 for both my stomach and buttucks. |

| Thanks for the review maebz. This really does sound like a nice and de-stressing treatment. Is it an oil formulation or a lotion? I'm a big fan of using oils on damp skin. I used the Dr Hauschka ones and the Dermalogica ones and loved them both. My Dermalogica Stress Relief Oil is finishing so I'm either going to buy some Dr H next or the Decleor if it's oil. The Decleor balm is on the card as well but I'd like to know how long it lasts for as it is pretty pricy... |

The Body Concentrate is indeed an oil, which makes it perfect to massage into skin and tired muscles. To get the full effects of it, squirt a few drops into your hands, rub your hands together to warm the oil up, take a deep whiff of it (aaah!) then rub it on your body. Heaven in a bottle.  I couldn't tell you how long the balm lasts because I haven't finished mine yet... but I'm guessing about 3-4 months -- of course that's depending on how much and how often you use it. |

I have been eyeing this one up for a while and I think it might be the next one I try. Do you remember when you first started noticing results?
Can you put your clothes on after without staining? |

Well, considering that there is absolutely NO active ingredients that have proven efficacy on cellulite in this product.... I would say it definitely will NOT work against cellulite. It's that simple. Read the ingredients. It is nothing but triglyceride oils and some essential oils. Now I will say that the Macadamia and Meadowfoam Oils are good emollients oils, but that's about it.
And their marketing spin gives away the fact that it doens't work against cellulite either: "Slimming is triggered and the skin is ideally prepared to receive the complementary skincare".
Could someone please tell me what "slimming is triggered" really means??!! That is pure marketing spin. It doesn't really mean anything, and that's what you have to be on the lookout for when choosing cosmetic products.
If you want a real anti-cellulite product, look for one with proven active ingredients that truly fight cellulite like caffeine, ruscogenins, aminophylline, Lanachrys 2B, and a few others.
Hope this helps,
John |

I've tried a couple of their products and hated them! I see a lot seem to like them, guess I am
in the minority but at those prices at least you would expect some results, for me they are a big nothing! I threw mine away!
