Suck it up Baby

I was very excited to try this machine. It arrived and looked very spaceage. Not a fan of the packaging and must admit it wouldn't have attracted me for the price it retails at. The box colour and graphics let it down. There was no instrcutions inside only on the back of the box. Once again thought this as odd for the price you are paying. Had to hang onto the box to keep checking instructions. These seemed a bit vague but once I figured it out all was good.Actually the machine is easy to use once you master it. Lets start with the application. You apply body lotion all over and then run the sculptor over it. You push upwards while rollers move across and suck up the skin towards the roller. My leg was very sore and it did hurt to use. Not an awful pain but tender. It just showed me where the worst of my cellulite is. So I massaged through this pain and it did seem to get easier with each roll. After a good five minutes of massaging my thigh I was left with a red leg. This fades quickly. So what were the results? As I had only just over a week to trial I didn't feel this was enough time to get visible result so I only used it on one leg. I used every day and really can't see any difference in my cellulite. I believe this will come and I am definitely going to keep going. My leg does feel smoother and softer. The biggest change is the pain. After the second use the pain of application on my leg disappeared. Previously my thighs do hurt in certain areas if knocked or rubbed on. I believe that this has started to break down the cellulite as this is not so apparent now. Will keep using as it is easy and I hope to see great results after a month of using.

Tips: Don't rub lotion on with hand you are going to hold machine with as it gets too slippery

Electric

Was really excited to trial this as like many people, I have lumpy, bumpy skin, orange peel if you will. It is packaged nicely in a box. Has a brief description of what it does on the back along with a quick start guide and expert tips. There is also a QR code to scan to get more information. Warnings on the bottom of the box for who and when not to use etc. I found the instructions didn't give quite enough detail. The quick start guide is ok and gets you started, but was a bit of trial and error on my part. I did scan the code, but there were no detailed instructions. Once started, I found this fairly easy to use. It feels kind of like little pin pricks as you are using it while it suctions on to the skin/fat and massages at the same time. The instructions say 5 days on 2 off, so given that it has only been roughly 10 days, I haven't really noticed much difference. As an added bonus, the fact that you liberally apply moisturizer before use means my skin is hydrated and softer as a result. I am going to continue to use this, as I am hoping to start to see results soon.

Tips: Lots of moisturizer and make sure you start on lowest settings to lessen the chance of burst blood vessels.

Sculpt me up, baby!

I was extremely excited to be a part of this fantastic trial!

The packaging is very standard. Cardboard box with a plastic casing inside but everything was packed neatly. I like how there is a QR code on the box that you can scan and it takes you straight to Manicare’s website where there is a video tutorial, if you like a little extra instruction.

The device itself is really light and the suction cup part is a decent size, not too big and not too small. So easy to use!

I like how you can customise the different levels/strengths on the EMS and lipo settings. The EMS feels like faint electric shocks and you can definitely feel it penetrating your skin! It is also silent when you use this mode.

The lipo function is great! It draws your skin into the cup and the rollers inside slide along your skin to help plump and smooth it. It’s quite loud, though, and sounds like a messaging device…

I absolutely love this device! I highly recommend getting one. It made a noticeable difference with the cellulite on my legs after two uses! Even my family commented how my legs look smoother.

I can’t wait to see what the results are after another few weeks of use!

Tips: Use a great silky moisturiser to help the suction glide along your skin easier. Reapply moisturiser if needed as it really does help!

Awesome At Home Tool

What an awesome little tool which is something different to the arsenal of tools I already own. Having recently tried cool sculpting I’ve have recently become interested in body tools not just face ones. Firstly this product is pretty reasonable, and with a reputable brand. The device itself appears and feels sturdy. I had to charge before first use, instructions were a little hard for me to understand and a few attempts with my skin sucked ensured! Once I had the hang of the device it felt pretty cool, more like a massage with suction - I haven’t let it sit on my skin for prolonged periods to see the damage this can cause. Def read the instructions where it notes to moisturise first! This makes things so much easier and helps cut the time and effort down hugely. I’m really trying to get in the habit of moisturising nightly and needing to use this device daily really helped. I have had this product just over 2 weeks so really not enough time to see if cellulite and firmness has changed. However I can already tell this product makes you feel like you are treating and taking time out for yourself. It’s a great massage and is definitely invigorating the skin. I will update if I notice cellulite reduction, however I feel this helps moisturiser sink in and absorb so is helping with moisture loss which will then help with a few of my other skin concerns being dryness, flaking and stretch marks and itching from the dryness. Id recommend this to just give it a go, there are so many facial products and not many for the body.

Manicare firming body sculptor

I was lucky enough to be selected for the trial team for this product and excited to give it a go. The design is lightweight and easy to use and charge. I have only used the product on one leg (thigh and calf) so that I could see any discernable difference during the trial. When I first used it I did find it quite tricky to use as I had massaged lotion into my skin as required for the process and my hands were still slippery trying to grip and manoevre the handpiece, noted for future use to dry hands well before beginning.

The process is easy to follow, 3-5 minutes on each area, I did this for 5 days and then rested for 2 days.

To date, I have used the sculptor for two weeks and at this stage have not noticed any difference in the texture and appearance of the leg which has received treatment and the one which has not. However, it has only been two weeks, so I am certainly going to continue using the sculptor. The dimpling of my skin is no worse, so with continued treatment (and more intense treatment) I am hoping there will be a noticeable change over time.

Manicare salon at home!

Thank you Beauty Review for the opportunity to trial the Manicare firming body sculptor. I found the design very user friendly. The handle is easy to hold and the machine is lightweight and portable so would be easy enough to travel with. The detachable section cup which has two rollers inside seems quite secure and can only be detached by pressing a button underneath on the base. It comes with replacement filter,a brush for cleaning and a USB cord for charging which I just plugged into my cellphone charger. No manual but easy to follow instructions on the box.

The device has two modes: Electronic muscle stimulation (EMS) which glow red on the device and Vacuum massage technique (LIPO) which glow blue.

For the purpose of this trial I wanted to trial the device on the back and sides of my knees/inner thighs as this has always been a problem area for me with bumpy skin.

After showering at night I generously applied my pure fiji body lotion to the back and sides of my knees/inner thighs. I then used upward motions over my skin for approximately 3-5mins. The release button on the device became my friend at times when the suction became too much. The lipo setting which has three intensity levels felt very strong for me even on intensity 1 to begin with and I haven't been able to progress past this setting yet as it's still quite painful. Hopefully after a few more weeks of use this will become easier. The EMS setting which has five intensity levels are more manageable for me at the moment as it feel like light tingling that gets a little bit stronger as you increase up the levels.

I like this device, it's easy to use and feels like it's working. My skin around my knees/inner thighs feels smoother but they have also has been getting regular moisturizer too in the past week. It's too soon to see any other results like increased skin firmness or reduction in cellulite after just 1 week of use but I believe consistency will be the key with this device. I will keep using for another 7 weeks and update my results at the end.

Tips: Make sure to hold skin your skin taut so no air gets into the suction cup and be generous with moisturizer.

Firming Body Sculptor

Thanks BR for sending this product to me to trial and review, very excited to try this out!

I'm a mama of 2 and with that has come more than a few places to get firm and smooth!! The box it comes in includes the device, the attachment (cup and rollers), charging USB chord (no plug), a cleaning brush, tweezers and a small bag of replacement filters.

When I first opened the box I was a bit surprised to see there wasn't an operation manual. I'm assuming this is to save on waste - instructions are on the box - but in my personal opinion a lack of instructions. I have no idea where I'm meant to use the brush, I assume the tweezers are to replace the filters but at first when I saw the tweezers I thought they were for something completely different (and I still don't know if I'm wrong or right). The instructions are very basic, without any pictures or a booklet I've been unsure if I've been using it how I'm meant to.

What is clear on the box is that moisturiser should be applied before use - they use the term "generously". Generously means A LOT! The more you use, the easier it is for the cup and rollers to glide along your skin. I also had to reapply.

I found the device a little scary to use at first, a little bit painful but I’ve been slowly getting use to it. I haven’t increased the level (there are 5 levels of Electronic Muscle Stimulation and 3 levels of Lipo Vacuum Suction) – I’m still on level 1 for both, I don’t feel comfortable going up a level for the suction yet. Just as a side review – my husband used it and was very comfortable using this on his thighs at the highest levels on both, he loved it! At first I didn't know how to use it smoothly but with consistent use I've gotten to know which buttons to push to turn off quickly if needed, or to release the suction slightly, finding it much easier to glide.

I haven’t seen any noticeable results yet – but I’m not ruling out that I will see them. The box states that the clinically proven results are based on an 8 week lab study so based on that I’ve got a long way to go. The numbers are high – 100% of users achieved improvement in skin firmness and smoothness, and 95% of users felt their skin had improved overall. So I’m excited to see what the results are after 8 weeks of use. This is a long time however in my opinion so I guess it will come down to making sure I take 5 minutes a day (based on 5 days, 2 days rest as instructed) to do this.

Overall, I’m on the fence about it as it doesn’t feel the most comfortable, but at the same time I know I will get more and more comfortable with using it the more I use it and I’m excited about the clinical results and believe this will help with consistent use!

Tips: Apply and spread plenty of moisturiser (don't rub in) to ensure the device glides smoothly along your skin.

Not bad as a massager, but it’s not really firming

Now I don’t have really saggy skin, I would say my body skin is quite good for a 37 yo. I don’t work out, so I have a bit of body fat, but I use a body lotion on a daily basis, so my skin is pretty good. The device looks pretty awesome and impressive, and it indeed is quite cool to use. The suction of this device is really strong so you do need to use some power to move the device along the skin while it is sucking on your thighs! The roller gives my skin a massage and as I got used to the strength and motion, I got better at it. 3-5 mins a day really isn’t a lot to ask for, but don’t expect your dimples or cellulite to disappear because it won’t. The application of body lotion or body oil will smooth the skin and the massage will improve skin texture and remove water retention.

Tips: Remember to use a body lotion or better yet, a body oil. Once the device is vacuuming the skin, get it moving instead of sucking at one spot.

Body Sculptor

Rated 2/5 on each due to product taking 6-8 weeks to start seeing results. This was quite fun to unbox…my husband thought it was a vibrator. Ha. Instructions are pretty scarce with this product, even online/ YouTube there was next to nothing. The actual product use directions are on the box but some is left up to the imagination. It came with some differing attachment things which I have no clue what they are. USE: this products HURTS. My upper thighs began to bruise so I have stopped using on them. I am unsure if the product came faulty or if one setting was so super sonic you couldn’t feel any vibration. OVERALL: I understand the concept of this product but I feel I would prefer to leave it to the professionals? Considering I was causing harm to my body using it, I am assuming I was doing something wrong. Either I would pay someone qualified OR good instructions including videos of use etc is highly desirable to get best effects. Product costs around $130 …I will keep using to best of my ability and update review if there are any changes but realistically would not go and buy this product?

Tips: 1) good back massager 2) use HEAPS of moisturiser 3) graduate to using olive oil

I totally agree about the lack of instructions. For something quite technical it should really come with a lot more detail. There is also a little 1/2 slider on the side that is not even mentioned at all.

Strange to use but good

The Manicare Firming Body Sculptor comes well packaged and is easy to charge. The electronic muscle stimulation feels a bit weird to start with but as long as you start at the lowest setting and work up from there then you get used to it really quickly. The lipo vacuum suction takes a little bit longer to get used to, especially on the "softer" parts of your body. My body sculptor took a little longer to arrive so I've only had it for 10 days so it's probably a bit soon to see any proper results so far but my skin definitely feels like it has had a "workout" after using it.

Tips: Definitely make sure that you start using both the electronic muscle stimulation and especially the lipo vacuum suction on their lowest settings and work up from there.
