Great little gadget to have

I've never used a tool like this before and it was really simple to set up and use, just put the attachment on, charge for a few hours and you're good to go. I especially love that it's cordless, that makes it so much easier to use and I found I didn't need to charge it after each use.

I have been using it on my thighs and I'm still getting used to the way it feels. It does feel strange at first and for the LIPO function, I have stayed at the lower end of the settings for now as the suction power surprised me and my muscles. I found the EMS to be easier to get used to. I will say that you need a decent amount of moisturiser (not for use with oils) and it works best with a thicker one or it doesn't glide as smoothly. I appreciate that you can use the two functions seperately or together and choose which one you want stronger. I used the EMS more than the LIPO function as I was worried about the suction of my skin everyday.

I also like the product design, lovely colour, nice to hold and very light. It's quick to wash and it comes with spare little filter things and tweezers to change them which is nice. I used it for the recommended 5 days and 2 days rest though I broke it up with two half sessions in the afternoon and evening to get my muscles used to it. I can feel a difference in my thighs, they do feel slightly firmer but I think I'll be able to 'see' more of an effect as I continue to use it. This is definitely a long-term use product. I'm pretty pleased with how it's going and I would recommend this product.

It Works!!

Firstly I would like to thank BR for the opportunity to trial the Manicare Salon Firming Body Sculptor.

This device has 2 functions to it, firstly Electrical Muscle Stimulation and also LIPO Vacuum Suction with massaging rollers.

The main purpose of this device is to stimulate blood flow and help to eradicate cellulite and to firm and tone your muscles and appearance of your skin.

This comes with an attachable roller which you roll over your body while it creates suction plus massaging while it emits EMS.

You must use a lotion otherwise this won't work and I read online not to use a body oil otherwise the EMS won't work. I tried one body lotion and ended up splashing water on to make it roll across my skin but found it wasn't suitable so I switched to the Nivea Organic Oat body lotion with great success.

This is a tricky device to use initially but once you get the hang of it it does become easier.

I especially like the EMS as I felt it working that much so it made my fingers tingle when I did my arms. With this in mind I would not use if you have a medical device or checked with your doctor beforehand.

There are different levels for the EMS and the suction. Also you can increase the suction further switching the button on the side from 1-2. You do need to keep your skin as taut as possible otherwise this device will suck and will be difficult to move however there is a release button.

I used this on my upper arms, thighs, buttocks and stomach.

I have trialled this device for approximately 2 weeks and have felt my muscles are more toned particularly my arms where let's face it with age they do start to lose some tone. With more time I believe that I will see more improvement and will be able to increase the suction to a higher setting from 1-2.

It does really emit a pulse which feels a little sharp if used on the highest setting and the LIPO suction is very strong too and can hurt if you have it set too high.

I will definitely continue to use this as I feel I've had an improvement.

Tips: Find a suitable body lotion and persevere while you get the hang of it.

Results!!

The body sculptor comes in a box with a charging cable and maintenance / cleaning supplies. The instructions and precautions are all included on the box, with a QR code for more information.

It is easy to use and charges fairly quickly. All you need to do it apply moisturizer to the area, then turn it on, making sure all the settings are set to low. You glide it over the area using upwards motions and the suction and massaging rollers do all the work.

It was a bit awkward to use the first time, but once I got used to it, it was very easy to use. It sits nicely in the hand and the controls are very responsive. The release button is big and easy to locate quickly if you need to break the suction.

I thought it may become a chore to use, but it was quiet meditative to relaxing to use (especially with the massaging rollers) so I found myself looking forward to using it.

The device charged quickly. The noise level while using was moderate. It didn't take long to notice results. My skin was much smoother to touch and more even in appearance. It definitely had a toning effect on those top layers of fat.

The device promises increased skin firmness and smoothness in 5 minutes a day. It definitely delivered that, I'm really happy with the results.

Tips: Use before getting a fake tan for optimal tanning results

Manicare Firming Body Sculptor

I have found using the Lipo Vacuum and Muscle stimulation on the top part of my arms and the top part of my legs ,it left my skin with a glow and the feeling of being massaged and improved . I have taken some before and after photos that l will post . It's certainly easy to use and charges easy , l found my skin texture was improved, and felt invigorated. I am definitely going to keep using it , Thanks Beauty Review

Tips: Use lots of skin cream it helps the machine glide easy .

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!

Go buy it NOW!

As happens with age and kids my thigh area had gotten a bit cellulite-y. I have also recently taken up exercising and noticed a little improvement in tone as well. I am currently out of action exercise wise due to a major ankle sprain and this machine arrived at the perfect time to test it. I opened my parcel and inspected the box, it was a pretty lilac pink with a photo of the sculptor. It appeared to have a lot of information on the box, almost overwhelming , so I took the time to read it all before actually opening it. After reading everything including the “quick start guide” on the back I opened the box so I could find a manual or proper instructions etc but there wasn’t any. I googled and went on YouTube and found no more info. re read the box again and found a QR code that took me to the website but it didn’t really provide anymore info. I’m not sure that I should maybe be familiar with how to use this type of product as a customer but I’m a complete newbie so that was a huge downfall for the product. Inside the box was a charger (you need to provide the wall adapter), the machine and the suction roller head and replacement filter things and a cleaning brush. Sorry I don’t know what they’re (no instructions) I worked out that when you use the moisturiser with it the massager can get a bit gunky and the little filters stop the moisturiser going into the suction part of the machine. I charged it up and had a go, I really felt like I was winging it with the quick start instructions. First of all make sure you use ALOT of moisturiser and keep it moving or it’s like a vaccumm on the skin and it’s hard to get off and painful. There is a release button to break suction. You can use the EMS setting and the suction setting at the same time. Are you supposed to? I’m not sure. There is also a switch on the side saying 1 and 2, nowhere could I find what it was for but it appears to make the suction stronger. I think. Btw it’s super loud. It was sort of uncomfortable at first but my skin quickly got used to it and honestly I felt results right away. I managed to do 4 days on 1 charge and decided then to recharge it so battery life is good. I got better at manoeuvring it around my body each day too and now after a shower I sit on the couch and use it. I’m loving the results after only 2 weeks. It recommends 5 days use with 2 days rest, much like exercise. Would I recommend it? Absolutely!!! It 100% works. A little disappointed there aren’t better instructions but for the results it gives it’s forgivable. That would be my only dislike about the product. I don’t even think it’s expensive for what it claims to do. It’s worth every cent. My skin feels amazing and it’s only been 2 weeks. I can’t wait to get to the recommended 8 weeks. My legs feel summer ready for the first time in years. Younger softer and more supple feeling skin.

Tips: Tips: use a thick moisturiser that doesn’t absorb too quickly. I use Nivea moisturising products (extra rich as I have dry thirsty skin) Shave legs beforehand for super softness Glide in an upwards direction and keep it moving Start on the lowest settings and use religiously 5 days on, 2 days off. Keep an eye out on YouTube etc for how others are using it

Weird but Good!

I wasn't sure what to expect with this - what would it feel like? Would it hurt? Would it be any good?

Firstly - there are very scant instructions so I had a look on the website and watched the video. Evidently I was over-complicating things haha, you literally turn it on and just run it up the area you're targeting.

The key thing to remember before you start: The suction can be quite strong, so familiarise yourself with the 'release' button.

It feels really... weird is the best word. Your muscles start contacting like those old fashioned ab belts but as you're constantly moving it it feels more energising and less twing-y. The suction is sort of massaging but it doesn't feel like a relaxing massage.

You'll likely be surprised by the feel of the targeted areas an hour or so later - you can feel they've been worked on.

Over the last few weeks I've been using this on my thighs only. That's 10 minutes a day / nearly an hour a week. Have I noticed an improvement? I actually have! The skin texture feels and looks more even, less dimply even.

I will continue use and update but right now, I'm very happy with the performance and results so far.

Value for money

I absolutely love this. Saves me allot of money i would have spent at a salon. My arms and legs feel much firmer, and skintone is much better. My cellulite is definitely less visible.

Tips: Use everyday on affected area to see results. Drink lots of water aswel to flush out toxins.

Manicare Firming Body Sculptor

I was lucky enough to be selected as one of the trial team members for this product. I don't think I would have ever bought one without the trial but I urge anyone reading to seriously consider it. The device is charged with an included USB cord and is cordless. The instructions make it clear that you need to apply a decent amount of moisturiser and I suggest you follow that advice as getting a good "glide" going is the difference between this working well and not. I must admit to being surprised by the lack of vibration when I first used it. There is none at all, instead tiny electric pulses are sent out of the two prong-like things inside the casing of the device. You start using the lower end of the two settings - Electronic Stimulation Muscle Technology (EMS) and LIPO Vacuum massage technique. I wouldn't say it hurt but the first couple of times I used it there was slight discomfort for the first minute or two. I never went above EMS 3 but did experiment with all 3 levels of LIPO suction. I used it for approx 10 mins a time every 2nd day on my buttocks, thighs and tummy. Results were almost instantaneous but they didn't really last all that long at first. I think with more usage they may continue to improve. My thighs and buttocks saw the most improvement in tone and reduction in the appearance of my cellulite. I also felt as though my muscles were a little more supple when working out too. After use I always used the included cleaning tools to clean the rollers as they tend to get a bit gunky with lotion.

Tips: Lotion, lotion and more lotion! Also start off slow on the intensity levels

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.
