Call me lambat setapak or whatsoever but this itchy self finally embarking on the 14-day trial teatox regime by Skinnymint. If you think the reason for me trying this is to get skinny, screw you please!
This product was a big-HOOHA months back but I wasn't even intrigued, not even a little because I have very bad experience with detoxing. YES, SUPER BAD!
The First Experience
Last year, I've ever tried detoxing by infusing fruits into water. My first experience was horrible. I infused red apples with cinnamon sticks. I heard that it's a good combination and that it will help to flush out toxins and knowing me who hates drinking water, will be a good way to let water into my system. The combination with regards to the taste is spectacular, I thought I knew this will be a good substitute for water. Unfortunately, coming into Day 3 of the detox, I experienced horrible breakouts on my forehead and near my cheeks. Well, they say if you see breakouts on your face means it's working, HELL NO!The breakouts were pretty bad that I thought I could be grounded instantly. It simply depreciates my self-esteem on flight tremendously. I felt ugly. I never had worst breakouts before, not even any pimple on my forehead!! So I stopped trying to cleanse my system, from then on I thought detoxing wasn't for me and that I should just continue eating salads and greens.
So what changed my mind?
I had to pluck up a whole lot of courage to click that Purchase button. From the start, I never gave my body a chance to cleanse, totally and that I felt I was abruptly introducing something foreign that lead my body to give such adverse effect back then. Kept on telling self that detoxing by tea should be rather mild thus, hoping and praying for not much of side-effects especially with regards to my facial features! Besides, the main reason for me to detox badly is, I have very bad constipation. Please don't laugh! It's true. They say a normal body should remove their waste every single meal they ate, that is considered healthy. Side track: Bubs have always been going to the toilet every single time after he ate, there was once he ever mentioned that what he ate came out instantly. Hard for me to believe but we even googled and it's possible!! LIKE OMG?
So what was my average rate of going to the toilet? It's as bad as once a week. A FREAKING ONCE A WEEK! Could go up once every two weeks. Something is so wrong with me. Well, I used to go quite often and that thrice in a week was considered little back then. So moral of the story is, not every pretty face have everything pretty about her. HAHAH, okay I'm not even pretty to start with. So whatever. *flips hair*
My first taste from Skinny Mint
Brilliant! Yes, it was fantastic! I'm only on my Day 3 but I certainly love this product. I rarely ever drink tea without sugar and with Skinnymint teatox, it was just awesome. I'm not exaggerating it, really! I feel that it really boils down to ones' preference. Why I chose 14 days instead of the 28? Like I said, I had a pretty bad experience from detoxing thus I'd not waste my money, splurging on it if I see such side-effects and horrible taste.
Like any other reviews on Google by the consumer of this product, The teatox consist of a Morning Boost and a Night Cleanse. Please proceed to the SkinnyMint Website to read up on the benefits and what the teabag contains if you're interested to find out!
I've mentioned about plucking up a whole load of courage, right? Well that includes reviews on taste and results from the regime. The result I'm looking for is a cleansed system (more of digestive system! Since I'm having constipation. lol) I would definitely to be heading the toilet quiet frequent as before. And nope, I'm not depending on this product for weightloss cos firstly, I still have my rawkin' flat tummy(HAHAHA) secondly, eventhough I'm conscious about my weight, I'm channelling my attention to having a healthy and fitter body for now. So losing weight is not my priority, shall let my body go into the off-season mode. My thoughts/experience below.
The Morning Boost - Perfect floral aroma and taste. I have never tasted such great combination in just a teabag! Definitely amazed how the aroma can linger around for quite some time, even in my mouth!
The Night Cleanse - Many have stated that they hated the taste and smell. Reviewed as spicy, strong and overpowering ginger-y taste. But I LOVE IT! Am I the only one who loves this? I don't dread drinking this at all, don't even mind letting the teabag soak for half and hour till the water turns room temperature, I could still drink it! I've ever tasted bad tea/medicine shit like ubat-periuk!
.............
So that was basically it! I wouldn't want to drown you readers for reading such boring review and long-winded post about this product. But so far, I'm seeing good results even on the third day. Been going to the loo quite often as before even Bubs noticed it.
H: I pon nak beli Teatox lah!
My baby, the world king. haha. Speaking of which, I miss him. Thank god it's only for one night and I'll be seeing him at the arrival hall or even better, at the immigration side!
HOW CAN I NOT MISS THIS IDIOT! Sorry babe, I just had to print screen this moment without you realising cos' I just can't stop falling in love with your smile every time.
Please mind the muka belom mandi! Thank you very nice.
