altogether now: hmmm ...

NIP+FAB TUMMY FIX - effects comparable to surgery? I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
YILI BALO CHILLI SLIMMING CREAM - just don't.
iPHONE ANTI-CELLULITE APP - 'hang on caller, I'll just put you on loud speaker so I can hear you while I zap my cellulite with my i-phone'. Must have been invented by a man.
ARISTOCRAT FIRMING CREAM - tackles 'flaccidity' (don't you love it!), but makes too many random claims to excel at any one.
CELLULEAN: has anyone done longterm trials on aminophylline as a topical fat-buster? The jury is out at the FDA.
SLIMTINT: takes inches off you, tans AND boosts libido. And there are clinicals on the website - 45 people (out of 90) recorded weight loss after taking it but there is no mention of whether they were eating less too .. Oh come ON!
AhRt SILHOUETTE LOTION: deposits slimming actives in your clothes when you wash them. I said I'd try it. I still look the same.
REVITASHAPE: voted #1 on a cellulite website, this "diminishes cellulite in 2 weeks". Oddly though, the clinicals aren't on view ..
RODIAL BEACH SKINNY STICKS: "multi-functional food supplements that build natural UV protection". And the proof?
DOVE FIRM BELIEVER: be confident in your 'real' figure - but not so confident you forget to buy our shape-refining cream!
RODIAL BUM LIFT: in 6 weeks cellulite is reduced by "a whopping 32%", thigh/buttock girth by up to 3.8cm, skin firmness improved by 60% and stretch marks "dramatically altered" - for only £97.87 a pop!
ADONIA LEGTONE: after a little chat with the PR "reduces 47% of cellulite in 9 minutes" was changed to "reduces the appearance of cellulite" .. BIG BIG difference ..
