Different body parts seem to get the spotlight at different times. For now, it seems the bottom is taking center stage. Instagram is so full of inflated derrieres you’d think they were giving away free helium. All joking aside, we thought legs have been ignored for a little too long. Who doesn’t ooh and ah at Heidi Klum’s long and lean legs. How many fashion models are known for their bums? It’s their gorgeous legs that get them down the runway. With Shrinking Violet Spa Treatments we have the means to put your legs above your bum, in priority of attention that is.

CELLULITE
How did cellulite get here? Why is it here? How to I make it go somewhere else? Woe is the woman who will stop at nothing to improve the look of lumps and bumps on their legs. No one really knows what causes this affliction but 90% of women can claim it as their own. Men? Not so much. This leads experts to believe cellulite has something to do with hormones. It’s time to fight back.
Several aesthetic tech giants have developed nonsurgical methods of eradicating cellulite. Unfortunately, many of the treatments provide questionable results and require so many repeat treatments, women neither have the time nor the patience to complete the series to satisfaction.

Tibby Olivier tackle cellulite at the root. Cellulite is formed by fibrous bands that run through adipose tissue (fat). Much like quilting, but it’s not as attractive on skin as it is on a Chanel bag. In order to smooth the cellulite, your Shrinking Violet Therapist will infuse the area with our slimming solution, manually use lymphatic draining massage to flush out toxins and excess fluid, Shrinking Violets active ingredients target fat cells to shrink those inches, slim, firm and tone with fat busting results.

BAGGY KNEES AND SAGGING THIGHS
Ageing is an equal opportunity collagen and elastin destroyer. It not only invades the face and neck, but collagen loss and poor skin quality can be seen on the thighs as well. Even with good muscle tone, the skin of the thighs is subject to a lot of bending at the knees, constantly stretching and contracting. It’s the contracting part that doesn’t quite happen when collagen and elastin are depleted. Sun damage, volume loss and poor hydration also contribute to saggy, baggy thighs.

Shrinking Violet Body Wrap to the rescue. This method activates the lipolysis process eliminating unwanted fat without effort or discomfort. It provides immediate and lasting slimming and body shape effects helping lose inches in problem areas such as thighs, hips and stomach, among others.

Tip: Shrinking Violet Bums & Tums is scientifically formulated with plant extracts, antioxidants and biotechnological agents to firm and improve sagging and crepey skin on the Thighs and Bottom. Ninety-eight percent of users see improvement. Believers in Shrinking Violet advise using the product on the skin of the thighs. Try it for hydration and a boost to collagen building after Shrinking Violet Body Wrap. Buy it here:

CANKLES
A calf that blends into the ankle without definition and without a taper to the foot has been coined a “cankle”. Women with cankles have an accumulation of fat surrounding the soleus tendon. There is also a genetic component to cankles. If mom or dad were cankle-sufferers chances are you will be too. Cankles make it hard for women to comfortably wear boots and even some shoes.

At Tibby Olivier we advise Shrinking Violet slimming solution and pressotherapy, to give relief to stocky ankles by performing circumferential draining of the calf and ankle area. The procedure stimulates the circulatory system, enhances lymphatic drainage and helps eliminate liquids, fats and toxins that cause cellulite, oedema, lymphedema and venous disorders such as varicose veins. But for those women tired of choosing their wardrobe based on cankle concealment, no amount of time or money will stand in their way.

Exercise and diet just can’t improve cellulite, baggy knees or cankles, but you can get a leg up on improving these problem areas with a visit to our Shrinking Violet therapists and ask about our Shrinking Violet Spa Rituals Treatment Programmes. Tibby Olivier owner and Inventor of Shrinking Violet Spa Treatments has decades of experience in body contouring and are on the forefront of the latest advancements in non-surgical treatment of both face and body. With the spa therapists expertise and hands on skill, there’s no reason you can’t have stand out legs.

“A mask is a spa-like experience. Multi-masking forces you to cool down and relax while you wait for the treatment to work,” explains Tibby Olivier.

“During this downtime you can be kind to yourself, concentrate on your breathing and meditate. It’s only a few minutes but what a world of difference it does for your face and your health.”

Created in Korea, this trend involves applying several masks at the same time in different zones of the face to target the needs of each area. A way to personalise your beauty routine, multi-masking addresses our skin’s range of requirements since not every area has the same needs. For example, use a purifying mask (Maskerade Mask) on your t-zone, one for anti-ageing (Faith Lift Mask) on your cheeks and neck, and a soothing, fresh mask around the contour of the eyes (Faith Lift Eye) With this approach to masks, the possibilities are endless…

Although it sounds too good to be true, there is a whole range of treatments now available that claim to do just that. We put the latest innovations to the test. See what our testers thought of:

Tester:
Sarah Brooke, 24, an account manager from Kensington.

Problem area:
Bottom and hips. I have wide hips, which I hate, and a really big bottom that makes me feel self-conscious.

I was more than willing to give the Shrinking Sheer Bliss Treatment a go. My only fear was that I would end up bruised.

In fact, the massages weren't in the least painful. The therapist started with a gentle detox therapy combination of exfoliation, massage and lymphatic drainage techniques which helps drain excess fluid from the body to improve overall functioning of the lymphatic (immune) system. Using circular hand movements to release toxins and bacteria from the body.

The whole experience was soothing.

After my first session, I felt a bit sick, I had a headache and kept needing to go to the toilet. The therapist explained that this was simply the toxins making their way out of my body. By the next day, these symptoms had gone and I started feeling better and better. I think I need to drink more water.

TOTAL INCH LOSS:
Waist - 3in Hips - 4in Thighs - 8in

Sarah’s verdict:
Having the massages and seeing the inches drop off has really inspired me to stick to a sensible eating plan. After six weeks, I have gone down a dress size.

I never expected the treatments to work this well. Anything that makes me feel this good and helps me to keep on top of my diet is definitely worth the investment.

Sagging skin can be a common problem that most women start to face from their early 30s. The signs might not be very clear at first, but unless real care is taken, it does not take long for the proof to become clear on the skin surface. Starting to feel a lack of tightness in your skin, can immediately be an indicator to show a drop in the elasticity of your skin, giving you a more tired and dull skin look along with wrinkles.

The ultimate non-surgical “lift!” Faith Lift’s concentrated mask helps to instantly tighten and tone contours on face and neck—with lifting and firming benefits that are immediate and long-lasting.

The primary reason for us losing natural skin elasticity is a reduction in the rate of synthesis of collagen and elastin in our skin. This combination of elements gives the skin its tight and taut, look and feel. The reduction can be marked as the onset of the natural signs of skin aging.

Faith Lifts soothing botanical blend - firming, toning and skin brightening Ginseng with the added benefit of line-minimising hydrating Polysaccarides—creates an “mesh” on the skin’s surface to help “lift”, tighten and reshape facial contours, by taking action on wrinkles to maintain facial beauty.

Tightens the skin without pulling, fades fine lines.

Smooths, evens out and tightens the skin’s texture.

Visibly lifts and firms face and jawline.

Whilst you cannot stop aging, you can always help to slow its march with the right skin care. Which is why Faith Lift Mask is an ideal product specially formulated to meet with the concerns of sagging skin that is quickly losing its moisture and becoming dull and wrinkled. Faith Lift Lifting and Tightening Facial Mask gives a boost of moisture to the skin and also helps in reinvigorating the natural elastic and collagen synthesis process of the skin. Helping to achieve a quick lifting and firming effect on the skin through skin tightening.

So, if you have started to notice lack of tautness and light wrinkles on your skin lately, it might be the high time for you to include a good quality skin tightening facial mask in your regular skin care regimen. Try Faith Lift Mask for Skin Tightening and Facial Lifting and enjoy a rejuvenated skin sensation of smooth skin will last for hours, in some cases days, without the skin flaking or leaving it overtly tight.

Best of all Faith Lift Mask is totally safe and non-invasive. Faith Lift Mask is a naturally derived, skin tightening mask that will help to physically lift sagging skin, reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles. What you waiting for buy yours today! Here:
