With several weight-loss programs on the market today, it’s quite impossible for one not to lose weight. There are even machines that target specific areas, for those happy with their weight but need toning.

Two months ago I was approached by Marie France to try one of its weight-loss programs and since I wasn’t a candidate, I looked for someone who would be willing to try it.

My aunt said yes, and she was diligent in undertaking the program. She lost 12 pounds.

The loss has had a positive effect on her self-esteem.

When I need to lose weight and I don’t want to go under the knife, I know the program will be at the top of my list.

The program is called the Money-Back Guaranteed Pro-Plus Program.

It is a program that guarantees at least 10-percent weight loss from one’s starting weight. It has been proven 100-percent effective and can guarantee real, sustainable weight loss.

The program has a money-back guarantee, if the client doesn’t reach the desired weight at the end of the program.

What’s the process?

The Pro-Plus program does not involve appetite suppression, surgical procedures, injections and exercise, so one is guaranteed a safe, painless, risk-free and sure weight loss.

The program combines two of Marie France’s most effective slimming technologies—the Fat Mobilization System (FMS) and Physique. When these two are applied together, each enhances the other, boosting the weight-loss and body-shaping results.

The program starts with FMS for weeks. It is a cold wrap that accelerates the body’s natural processes, altering the temperature and structure of stored body fat, which then results in calorie-burning.

Each treatment lasts approximately 30 minutes and is capable of burning up to 2,000 calories while one is lying down. It continues to burn calories even after the treatment ends.

After several weeks, the Physique Inch-Loss is gradually introduced. It firms and tones sags and bulges. Fifteen minutes of Physique is equivalent to the effect of 225 sit-ups. It uses the most advanced electronics to achieve immediate but lasting slimming results.

This treatment can be used on the midsection, thighs, legs, buttocks and any area that requires toning and improving.

How long does it take to yield results?

In most cases, clients see initial weight loss after just the first week of the Pro-Plus Program. The whole program usually takes three months to finish, with sessions taken consistently thrice a week.

Success rate?

With strict compliance to the recommended program schedule, the 10-percent target weight loss (or even more) is 100-percent guaranteed to be met.

La Prairie

After good skin I think it is important to use good foundation. La Prairie Liquid Soft Glow is the foundation for you if you want your natural skin tone enhanced. It is also a light diffuser that blurs wrinkles and other discolorations.

I got a lot of compliments when I started using it and I have noticed my skin looks luminous also on photos.

Most products are quite difficult to blend. La Prairie is easy and light on the skin. Perfect for our humid weather.

Dermalogica

My friend had terribly oily skin but it was also flaky, until she discovered Dermalogica’s Hydrating Masque. It hydrated her skin without leaving it oily.

I tried it and am amazed by it. I love using masks, my fave being Murad’s Collagen mask, but after using this I had to go and get one for myself.

No, I will not replace my collagen mask, but I am adding the hydrating masque for my skin regimen. Just a thin film is needed and the tightness is gone!

My friend also swears by Dermalogica’s refining masque. It has done wonders to her skin I think this will be my next buy. I believe in the power of masks. Visit Dermalogica and find one that is aimed at your skin’s needs.
