Do Beauty Quick Fixes Really Work?
Almost all beauty magazines feature “quick fix� sections—those sections where the writers/editors recommend certain products guaranteed to give you that lift, boost, tan, or whatever it is you may need…quickly. I’ve always wondered about the products featured in these sections. Wrinkle erasers. Collagen boosters. Self-tanners. Hip slimmers. You name it, it’s out there. But do quick fixes really work?
The reason I ask is because I recently came across a section touting tummy tightening quick fixes. Who couldn’t use a bit of tummy tightening, right? The section featured a glorified girdle and firming body wash among several other items. One of the featured slimming secrets cost $85, which may seem reasonable to some people but not to me.
Even though not all quick fixes come with a high price tag, I’m still skeptical as to whether or not they work. Sometimes it’s just difficult to distinguish between good marketing and a good product.
Do people out there try these products, and if so, do they really work? If I were to spend $85 dollars on a skin firming cream, I would want some sort of guarantee. Otherwise, I may as well fork over a few extra dollars and hit the cosmetic surgeon’s office where I’m guaranteed to see results.
