Body Contouring & Slimming Care

Nothing revitalises slackened skin like a cool shower. Start with a spray of hot water to relax then finish with an invigorating burst of cool water to lift your mood and firm the skin. For best results, finish by smoothing Extra-Firming Body Lotion or Extra-Firming Body Cream over your damp skin from ankles to breasts, then wrists to shoulders for deep hydration and beautifully toned body contours.

Take firming into your own hands. Add a few drops of Tonic Body Treatment Oil to Extra-Firming Body Lotion or Extra-Firming Body Cream. Gently massage with straight sweeping motions over clean damp skin to help tone, firm, improve elasticity and prevent skin dehydration.

Drinking eight glasses of water a day flushes out toxins to help clear your complexion.
Water also helps keep your skin soft, firm, smooth and moisturised.

Swimming is the all-round sport with all kinds of styles. To firm up the arms, the chest and the inner thighs, there's nothing like a bit of breaststroke. To tighten up the thighs and work that butt, finish off with a few lengths of backstroke. You'll feel you're on the crest of a wave.

Wherever you may be, you can work those gluteal muscles. Stand erect while remaining static; contract your buttocks for 5 to 10 seconds then relax for 3 to 4 seconds. The more you repeat the exercise, the better the result. To tone the arms up keep a straight back while carrying around fairly heavy everyday items: a bag, a pack of water, etc., and hold them at arm's length while slightly bending the arms.

Self-massage requires no one but you, so do yourself a favour. Apply the appropriate cream or oil over the entire tummy area. Then, placing your hands on this zone, pinch your skin between thumbs and fingers and roll it between them, starting from the bottom of the tummy and working towards the top. Carry out this simple routine daily. The longer you keep at it, the more visible the results will be.

Enjoy the ideal meal to start your day off right! A bowl of whole-grain flakes with a touch of honey and some cold milk, a slice of bread with butter, an orange-pineapple juice with a pinch of ginger and a vanilla yoghurt, washed down with tea and lemon.

Certain nutrients are essential for your body and therefore your skin. Let's start with Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant, primarily found in almonds and whole grains. Let's continue with potassium and its draining effect. Dried apricots, apples, spinach and parsley are full of potassium. Last but not least, Vitamin C, also an antioxidant. It is indispensable for the production of collagen.

Rediscover sensations of hunger and fullness. Not hungry anymore? Stop eating. Soon, you'll reduce your portions. Treat yourself to a real indulgence once a week: cake, chocolate or a rich dish. Enjoy every bite, then balance your next meals. Invited somewhere to eat? Make the most of the meal, without feeling guilty.
