Soap & Glory Sit Tight Super Intense XS

Soap & Glory Sit Tight Super Intense XS, available now (£16.50, boots.com)

What it Promises: Quadruple-Action Super-Strength Body Firming Serum. Create to help reduce the appearance of orange peel skin, stimulate circulation and aid lymphatic drainage, firm, rehydrate and recontour the skin and deliver slow-release slenderizing actives while you sit. Skin looks firmer, tighter and less dimply after just four weeks usage.

What is actually does: Without reading what this product actually did I slapped it on my legs and bottom as I would any other body firming lotion or moisturiser. With just a slightly warming sensation on the skin, I got dressed, headed out and didn’t think anything more of it – until I sat down. Moments later my bottom was on fire, with a fiercely tingling and tightening feeling which was hard to ignore! But it does has a great squeezy roller ball applicator to encourage skin circulation, which means it doesn’t get on your hands. For a product you can actually feel working on those unwanted wobbly bits this is brilliant, I will definitely keep it up – maybe next time I won’t put it on just before a night out though!
