I’ve never been one to jump on a bandwagon, especially one that sounds scammy or too good to be true.
So when my friend and stylist, Lisa, first told me about It Works! products, I refused to try them. I mean, seriously…a wrap…that causes you to lose inches in minutes? She had to be kidding.
Still, Lisa talked to me about the products several times over the next few months, mostly just telling me how much she personally loved them.
But I was all, “Whatever!”
She told me that the It Works! body wraps would literally take off inches in 45 minutes. I told her that was too good to be true.
She told me that the Greens helped her feel energized and healthy. I told her I didn’t like to drink weird stuff that probably tasted terrible.
She told me her skin looked 5 years younger (at least) after her first facial wrap–and she even told me how I could get the products for almost half off.
I told her I wasn’t interested.
But one day, when I was at the salon for a particularly time-intensive series of services, she finally convinced me to try it.
“Just one wrap,” she said. “If you don’t love it, I promise, I’ll never ask you again.”
