They Claim Natural Herbs Metabolize Fat Energy

the claim on skinny wraps do they work
It Works Skinny Wraps and Supplements

I've been hearing more about these skinny wraps and so I had to investigate. What I found out is that all of the products used in the "skinny wrap it works" treatments are made with all natural ingredients.

It's Natural and Green

In case you don't know,   The Skinny Wrap   actually a body wrap made of an all natural botanical based product. It can be held in place in your target area with anything, such as an ace bandage.  The secret seems to be the botanical ingredients that penetrate four layers into your skin burning the fat.

Does it Work

I wanted to see what people are saying about it. One person I talked on Facebook says "It starts working in as little as 45 minutes and the results last."  I talked to one distributor in Virginia who said "This is not a water loss wrap. It's actual fat loss.The natural botanicals penetrate the cells and literally melt or dissolve them."

Their claims state it's safer than surgery and well, that is a fact.  Just the other day I received a Facebook message from an old friend who now owns a salon in Parkville, MD. She asked if I knew anyone in the area selling these wraps, she wanted to get them in her salon. So I started reading about them.

Proof in the Pudding, or Lack thereof

Normally when something sounds too good to be true, it usually is, but in this case based on the fact it's using natural ingredients and botanicals, I think it's worth a second look. 

The real proof seems to be in the lack of fat--and photos from it's users.  Look also in the way in which it's growing. If you look closely, the company is quickly growing by it's very own user base who orders the product, tries the product, falls in love with it, then starts selling it to family and friends. I suppose the proof is right there.

Would you sell something to family and friends unless it really worked?   If you have used this product please leave comments.  I'm glad to see this company go green, and use botanicals, herbs, and natural ingredients. although I haven't tried it yet, maybe I should.
