Best Practices


This product is not recommended for pregnant or nursing women or children. If you have a medical condition, health concern, or are taking prescription medication, consult with your health care professional before using this product.
Here is a list of some best practices that have helped me achieve results personally. I hope they work for you too. :)
  • Do not use soaps with lanolin -  they tend to clog pores.
  • Wipe the area with alcohol -  make sure there are no lotions or perfumes on your skin.  Alcohol will also open up your pores. (Tip: Use a panty liner rather than a cotton swab…goes quicker)
  • Use a measuring tape -  write down measurements daily. Make sure to measure 3 areas before you wrap.
  • Use a Sharpie – mark where you measured for more accurate results. A pen mark will be gone when you remove the applicator.
  • Measure 3 spots -  (waist, belly button and lower ab). This will help make sure you are being accurate. Add those inch loss results together to come up with your total loss amount.
  • Drink plenty of water – ½ your body weight in ounces the day you wrap and 3 days following. (If you weigh 150 lbs, drink 75 ounces of water a day)
  • Avoid salty foods.
  • Take a hot shower first – make sure skin is clean and pours are open. No lotions or perfumes on your skin before you wrap.
  • Use proper wrapping material – Saran wrap, ace bandage or tight clothing (biker shorts) to secure applicator snug enough so the wrap doesn’t slide off, but not tight enough to make you start sweating.
  • Wear for 45 minutes – 1 hour -  then remove saran wrap. The goal is to have as much of the product absorb as possible so rub it in after you remove the wrap, don’t wash it off.
  • No sweating – don’t work out  or do anything else that will make you sweat while you are wearing the wrap.
  • Measure every day -  drink your water and think slim!
  • Only use one wrap per area every 72 hours -  anything more is a waste. (Example, don’t put 2 wraps on your belly)
  • Measure results with inch loss not weight loss.
  • Relax and enjoy the 45 minutes and think slim. :)
