The Slimming Effect

I love a weird beauty trick, especially when it has a slimming effect.

I have a tendency to feel puffy after Fashion Week — all the unhealthy and rushed meals, the lack of sleep, and being surrounded by teeny tiny models is not good for the figure.

That’s where Epsom Salt comes in.

I used to use Epsom Salts after a rough day to relax and “nurture” my body, but it turns out they’re also great for when you need to suck some of that extra salt-induced puff from your body.

Here’s how:

When you’re in the shower, turn off  the water and apply a generous amount of Epsom Salts to your body (ahh naked!). Some of the salt will dissolve, while the rest just sits atop your skin. Leave the salts on for about 5-7 minutes (I know it’s a long time but it’s totally worth it), turn the water back on and rinse! Not only will you have fresh, exfoliated skin, but I swear on Christmas you’ll feel leaner.
