ZIA ULTIMATE BODY FIRMING TREATMENT! GODDESS GRANNY!

Mjsred here, and I am gorgeous and I am a grammy! hoping your 4th was as hot are y'all are! I spent part of last week wrestling rattlesnakes in my garden...and no, I can't grow a thing but I'm okay at picking, LOL! The critters obviously assumed the cool, wet, dirt was their own private "Slip n' Slide" escape from the heat but trust me, I'm ready for some "anti-aging" at it's finest right about now, they managed to add a few more visable grey hairs!


I have known about the "Zia" line of nature-based products for years and have tried a few items here and there, mostly from the local "health food" stores: and have found them to be reasonably priced, effective, and a good bargin for this type of product. The company has over 2 decades of experience and honestly, their dedication to customer-service and standards of quality are quite impressive:


"Since 1984, Zia Natural Skincare has been crafting natural skin care products using whole foods, pure essential oils and healing botanicals. From its modest inception in San Francisco to its must-have status in the cosmetic bags of Hollywood starlets and makeup artists, Zia Natural Skincare's face and body products are coveted by in-the-know beauty insiders from coast to coast. We take tremendous pride in creating products that deliver visible results and in providing outstanding customer service.

At Zia Natural Skincare, our product philosophy is very simple - we create high quality products using synergistic blends of premium, natural ingredients. Each formulation uses a unique blend of vitamins, antioxidants & nutrients that interact and work together to deliver visible results.


Our formulas feature whole foods products, therapeutic-grade essential oils & herbal extracts. Zia Natural Skincare formulations only utilize ingredients that provide a benefit to the skin, and that are not harmful. You will never find harsh chemicals, artificial colors, or artificial fragrances in our products.

Our products are eco-friendly and cruelty-free. We do not test our products on animals.


Most importantly, our products are designed to be truly beneficial to your skin. They help repair and restore your skin to a state of optimum health, providing you with tangible, lasting results. Our products really work! We are so confident that you will love our products that we offer an unconditional guarantee. If you are not 100% satisfied, we will refund your money."

ing in a world of overly-pretensious/underly concerned companies,right?


So when I received their "Ultimate Firming Body Treatment" to try, I wondered if the contents of this classy-looking tube really could help whip those "I do the damn curls and dips at the gym but I'm still 54" slightly-flappy "Bingo Wings" ( inset visual here) and "other areas" (gratefully nameless) into shape before my class reunion in a couple of weeks?

Worth a try and bonus points that no needles or scalples would be involved.


"Ultimate Body Firming Treatment visibly improves skin's tone and firmness with a potent blend of caffeine, vitamins and circulation-boosting botanicals. Gotu Kola, horse chestnut and other plant extracts help lift and contour skin, minimizing the appearance of cellulite while firming thighs, upper arms and other areas. Pink grapefruit and marine algae aid detoxification."


Lovely cool, cream-gel product, smells slightly citrus-y with a good dose of grapefruit...goes on cleanly with no stickiness and spreads easily...okay...so far so good!

Dries quickly and OMG....it really DOES leave those wiggly-bits feeling smoother, tighter, more toned, and just so much better overall!!!


I have been using this for more than a week and am in LOVE with it!!! It's reasonably priced for the 7 oz. tube and compared to several other similar products I've tried, it's my favorite overall for value and the way it performs! The "tightening" is most obvious immediately after application but the overall smoothness of the areas remains long after!


Now mind you...the curls and dips are still a necessary evil and does anyone ever really love their thighs? I do however think that this product really can help you feel that "things" are firmed up a bit for at least the immediate future and that, my darlins' is a beautiful thing!

Does Zia keep you looking like a spring chicken!?

Ok! Here are my thoughts about what “zia ultimate Body Firming Treatment” can do! Well...I can tell you that it’s as clear as spring water, the texture is somewhat like Jell-O that has been sitting in the sun for about 38 minutes... but instead of warm you WILL feel a nice subtle COOLING sensation on the ‘area of concern’ where you have applied the Ultimate Body Firming Treatment!I think in all honesty if you believe that zia ultimate body firming treatment REALLY is altering the appearance of your legs or other rolling areas of mysterious blobs under your skin and you actually LOVE it - you NEED to go to whatever store is near your house and STOCK UP on this product - because the tube is only 7 ounces and you are going to want to apply this on constantly or at least twice a day like it says on the tube right? Unfortunately the tube wouldn’t last very long so you would have to buy a LOT of this to produce noticeable results I’m sure. I haven’t finished tube #1 so we shall see if I can tell a difference after I run out. zia is a lovely name and a respected name..so would be compelled to buy it based on my use of it so far...probably not - but it’s been fun to have my skin feel cool for a minute or so a couple of times a day! I personally really like the fresh smell and it melts into your skin within a second and it definitely does something that feels uplifting to your skin as soon as you apply it but I think you’d have to use it a long long time and never stop using it to really see a difference.

I like this stuff! Even though I'm not so sure on "results", it's been good to me so far. I'm young, but I have a bunch of cellulite and stretch marks around those "trouble areas" (read: butt, thighs, and chest). I like how it makes my skin feel almost tighter after I use it- it's hard to describe. Plus, it seems like my skin in the areas I use it on is already firming up a bit! Whoo!

I never thought about firming for my arms too...I go STRAIGHT to thighs on this one. But itsa great idea and since I have a bottle I'm going to test it out and get back to you. I get the picture of Christina Applegate fluttering her arms back and forthin the dressing room in that "Sweetest Thing" movie. How funny was that!?! I love Chris and Cam for being able to be silly and make fun of themselves. CLASSIC.

Love, hugs and shoes...Angie

hello girls, i actually own this product. i have used zia off and on for years. i usually go for the big guns [lots of chemicals] but zia is a really good line. years ago i used to get her newsletter. she would give reveiws on different products on the market. her knowledge was unbelieveable! so if you want to go more natural zia is the way to go. i like this product [use it on legs,arms,stomach and butt] and i like her papaya enzyme peel. well really all her stuff is good! carol b

I really wish all those firming products could actually work...The only thing I found it works a bit is scrubbing your legs, they are smoothing and blood circulation is very important for cellulite and firming!
