The Secret to a Haute Swimsuit Season
It’s that time of year again and I could not be more thrilled that there is another hour of sunshine in the day.
Springing forward on the clocks always signifies that swimsuit season is just around the corner, which means that we will soon find ourselves staring into the mirror under ghastly florescent lights that are unforgiving in highlighting flaws, as we search for the perfect swimsuit. We have all been there, year after year, without exception.
Not again, I say. This year will be different. Now when I stare into the mirror, I count my lucky stars that I have found the secret for instant gratification, and no I am not talking about a spray tan.
LA SlimWrap is one of my beauty secrets that not only makes me look great, but also feel great too. The best part is it only takes an hour. I am a die-hard fan along with Tyra Banks, Ellen DeGeneres, Morgan Fairchild, and Eva LaRue.
LA SlimWrap is a revival of mind, body, and spirit. This life changing-event is tucked away in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Westwood. The owner, Afsi Naim, has 10 years of experience in changing the bodies of her Hollywood clientele. Let me warn you, this is not the typical dehydration wrap that leaves you laying in a room, like a pig in a blanket, as all the good and bad are fiercely sucked out of your body. This is a mineral based body wrap that will detoxify, tighten, reduce the appearance of cellulite, and trim anywhere from six to 20 inches off your entire body. I know it sounds like a miracle and in my opinion it is pretty darn close.
When I go in for a wrap I not only look tighter, but also feel so alive and refreshed. Whether you just had a baby, need to fit into your little black dress by Saturday, or are an ex-smoker who wants to detoxify, this is a perfect way to change the way you look and feel in conjunction with exercise and a healthy diet.
