We all need a little help to tone up and never more so than after pregnancy. Thankfully there are a few products out there that are on hand to help.
Sculpt Balm
100% natural – this deliciously rich balm helps tone and restore elasticity. The blend of rose, camomile, lemongrass, grapefruit, frankincense and myrrh work together to soften and firm stubborn areas – it also smells divine. Use in the evening and apply a small amount to the palm of your hand. Rub until warm then massage in over your entire body from the legs up. It’s not the most radical of toning treatments but you will begin to notice the benefits and skin will feel incredibly silky smooth.
Mama Mio Get Waisted Body Shaper
The secret to Get Waisted lies in its marine extracts which are clinically proven to have detoxifying and sculpting benefits. These combined with caffeine improve circulation and maximise lipolysis – the break down of fat. Studies have shown that in just 21 days you could drop a jeans size. Whilst we didn’t quite drop a jeans size we did notice a slimmer, flatter and firmer tummy and this was without even trying. If used in conjunction with an exercise regime and a healthy eating programme results will be even more radical and getting back into shape will be a breeze.

The blend of fig extract and neuropeptides help to break down stubborn fatty cells and boost cell metabolism. Combined with a healthy diet you can lose up to an inch within 8 weeks.
Elemis Body Sculpting Firming System Duo
Whilst this isn’t specifically a tummy toner, the Sculpting Lipo-Refining Serum and the Sculpting Firming Cream work together to reduce the appearance of orange peel skin and to smooth the body’s contours. Use the serum first followed by the cream on legs, bums and tummy to help stimulate micro-circulation, If used in conjunction with the Elemis Body brush within four to six weeks you will feel smoother and more sculpted – a great all body toner.
L’Occitane Firming and Anti-Water Oil
It’s hard to believe that a product which is 100% natural can have such a firming effect on the skin. The Almond oil, rich in omega 6 and Cameline Oil, rich in Omega-3, soothe and hydrate, whilst the grapefruit, cypress and geranium oils boost circulation. The secret ingredient however is the red algae extract which helps to boost digestion and increase your metabolic rate. Whilst the results aren’t dramatic your skin will feel incredible and you will feel lighter and firmer. The oil and massage will also help reduce scars and stretch marks.
