It Works! Ultimate Body Applicator Wrap
I have been hearing a lot about It Works! Ultimate Body Applicator Wrap lately and was thrilled when Independent Distributor, Shannon agreed to send me a sample to review .
What does the It Works! Body Wrap do?
The claim from the company is “With It Works! You can tighten, tone and firm in as little as 45 minutes!”
Yup, that’s the claim, and after I heard that It Works had my full attention. However; that’s not the only benefit that It Works claims.
With It Works! you can also improve your skin texture, reduce the appearance of cellulite and varicose veins.

The It Works Body Wrap Reviewed
So I tried the Ultimate Body Applicator Wrap in my last attempts to loose some inches before my friend’s wedding this July.
The first thing I noticed while unwrapping my wrap from the package was the smell of eucalyptus. It was refreshing and although it sounds like previous reviews that the smell is a hit or miss, I liked it. It was suggested that I sleep with it on over night, for optimal results.
So before bed, I placed the wrap on my stomach/hips area wrapped myself in saran wrap (to hold it on place) and for maximum hold I put on the Wink Postpartum Bikini (but Spanx or any cheap sucker-innie-thing from Walmart would work and this isn’t required, I just wanted to make sure it didn’t move). Then I went to bed.
You can feel the gel on the wrap right away. It produces a cooling/tingling feeling. I was really excited to wake up the next morning to see my results.
What were my results?
Well, I was super bummed to wake up in the morning and find that there were no immediate results. My fantasies of quick fixes and immediate beach body, all came crashing down in front of the mirror!
But wait
On my second day, you can imagine my elated surprise when I measured and noticed that I lost 1/2 inch. I drank a lot of water, which is suggested as these wraps help detoxify your body and you want to flush your system. A half inch! Oh baby!
However, I came right by down to earth when at the end of the week, I gained that 1/2 inch back.
So I took to the internet to read other reviews, and from what I could gather from others was that if you eat like crap and are a little bloated: this will work wonders for you. If you live a general healthy lifestyle, you probably won’t see much change.
I’m not knocking the product, I think if you are salted and carbed up and need a quick fix for an upcoming party: this could work well for you. It is not a permanent result. I think if you want long term results, you need to do the long term deal and eat healthy and exercise whether it’s a simple walk, at home workouts or the gym.
The Final Verdict
The big question. Would I ever buy one again? The answer. These are not for me.
However, I eat as healthy as possible and work out quite a bit. It seems that I’m not their target client and for some these can be really effective. So, if you’re a tiny little thing with no fat on you, maybe think twice. But if you got a little shape and curve to you, these could give you that tone and difference that you are looking for.
You can get the Body Wraps on Amazon in a variety of quantities.
Good luck!…and if you tried them, leave a comment and let me know your experience.
