I received a catalog in the mail today for a cosmetics company whose products I usually consider to be pretty normal and which do the usual stuff like temporarily make my skin greasy or whatever.
So ok I am not making this up. They have a new lotion called [name witheld so I don't get sued] which is billed as a “liquid workout for lazy abdominals”. It is actually touted as a solution for “waist management”. Oh, and caffeine is one of the ingredients. I’m not sure where to even begin with this one it’s so stupid. But if you catch me smelling like coffee I probably spilled it on myself by accident.
I tend to do that a lot.
pssst -if you think the lotion that is going to make your abdomen flat is weird . . .




I decided I really did need to out this product so here it is. I like my products to get back to basics which is why I use “Hope in a Jar” a basic product that does exactly what it says.
I can’t believe that anybody would be so cheeky as to name their product Hope in a Jar. After all, isn’t that all everything is?
Many months after writing the post above I have learned that Caffeine Lotion really does have some pretty good benefits although flattening your abdominals is not on the list. I know that for some reason this post is one of the more popular on this blog so I consider it a public service to add this link ineedcoffee.com
