    Default Skin wraps.....anyone tried it?

    I'm trying to be as proactive as possible in helping to prevent the dreaded saggy skin. I had a skin wrap a long time ago and it seemed to tighten up my skin and help me lose a few inches. I recently found one you can do at home and am going to try that one. However I'd love to hear if anyone knows of one that works

    I have used ones that I got from a company called "It Works". To be honest i do not know if I could tell a difference as far as tightening of the skin is concerned, but I could definitely tell a difference as far as detoxification of the skin.

    Hope this helps!

    My research indicates that they are hoaxes, but there are a lot of people who'd like to sell it to you who will tell you it works. Use your judgement.

    I was given a gift certificate for one. They wrapped soaked bandages all around your body, then cover you up for an hour to detox. It was relaxing and it tightened me up for a few hours. It was expensive and it didn't last. I guess for a special occasion, to fit into an outfit maybe....definately not worth the money IMO.
