When a workout just isn't on the books.

We’re well aware that exercise is the number-one way to firm up slack skin, but also conscious of the fact that workout plans sometimes fall to the wayside when seaside getaways are in the mix. Here, the latest and greatest potions that promise to tighten skin, no sweat required.
Think of this dynamic duo as your latest and greatest day
and night cream pairing. They work in tandem and around the clock (they literally
work for 24 hours) to reduce the appearance of dimpled and bumpy skin as it
firms, and just when we thought it couldn’t get any better, the brand also touts
a promise of decreased thigh size after 10 days with proper use.
Whether from a full day in heels or an intense workout, each
application of this chic, cooling gel tackles muscle fatigue head-on. It stimulates
circulation to reduce the appearance of cellulite and acts like a breath of
cool, fresh air in this blazing summer heat.
Meghan Markle’s go-to lotion just got an upgrade. This
lightweight hydrator sinks in deep to nourish even the driest skin types as it firms—expect
results in as little as two weeks—with help from CoQ10 and vitamin C, powerhouse
ingredients that help even discoloration and energize cells. Launching this month.
Aside from sculpting skin over time, a blend of pomegranate,
millet seed and jojoba oils also work to deliver heightened resilience to
weakened tissue and deeply smooth for skin you’ll want to show off. (For easy
absorption, apply the oil while skin is still damp post-shower or bath.)
Meant to be used daily—try applying right after your shower
for maximum oomph—this freshly scented body lotion tackles and tones slack skin
with caffeine and coffee extracts, and smooths rough patches with a blend of
coconut, almond and grapeseed oils.
A cocktail of punchy makrut lime and marula oil wakes up the
senses and quickly absorbs into the skin in this firming body oil that can be
used to spot-treat dry areas—I love it on the knees and elbows—or all over to
tone.
When there’s no time to wait for results, this quick-dry oil
is infused with mica minerals to reflect light instantly (read: blur the look
of dimples and discoloration) while jojoba and sunflower oils drench skin with
mega moisture.
