This French Body-Sculpting Kit Is So Good It Keeps Selling Out—Here's My Honest Review
The first time I used Biotyspa's Body Sculpt Kit, I had just arrived in NYC after an eight-hour travel day. I was feeling dull, sluggish, and puffy, so I figured it was the perfect time to put it to the test. I started by scanning the QR code on the box because, even though I think I have a good grasp on lymphatic drainage techniques, I wanted to ensure I was using it correctly. It took me to a step-by-step tutorial video, which I found helpful. I followed the instructions and started the process.
First, I applied the brand's Hydrating Shower Gel to the area I was starting with (my left leg). Then, I took the Body Sculpt Cup and pressed it down onto my skin. After a little bit of trial and error, it suctioned to my skin. From there, I used gentle pressure and moved it in upward circles.
Once the first area was complete, I moved on to all the others using the same technique. Afterward, I rinsed off, stepped out of the shower, and applied some of the Firming Body Oil to my skin. At first glance, my skin was a little pink. Once that diminished, though, it looked brighter and more, well, alive. I also looked subtly less puffy and more sculpted. Success.
Since then, I've been using the Body Sculpt Kit weekly, and each time, I see the same successful result—glowier skin and a slightly less puffy appearance. While this won't replace my lymphatic drainage massages, it will certainly help maintain and extend their effect in between appointments.
Also, I will say that the brand's bodycare products feel very chic and sophisticated. The Hydrating Shower Gel lathers up into a silky, bubbly texture that provides the perfect slip for the Body Sculpt Cup. The Firming Body Oil is good too. It makes my skin feel so soft and smooth without leaving any weight or residue behind. I like to add a couple of drops of the latter to the Hydrating Shower Gel before applying it to my skin. I've found this provides even better slip for the Body Sculpt Cup and even more hydration for my skin.
There's only one downside. The first few times I tried it, the Body Sculpt Cup didn't stay suctioned to the skin for long. If I slid it over an uneven or curved surface of my skin, it would lose its grip. In that case, I had to regrip it by pushing down on the dotted areas to get suction again. It definitely required some patience and trial and error at first—just something to note. Still, I feel like I got into a groove with it after some practice, and I'm glad I did!
