Where to start? I have been losing weight (size 22 to a size 14) and got the usual "symptoms" that go along with weight loss: slightly saggy looking skin, droopy boobs, etc.
I use copper peptides every so often on my face (I used it religiously, got the results I wanted and so just use it for maintenance now about once a week), and remembered Skin Biology also made copper peptide body products.
I was trying to decide whether to get the body lotion or the BND cream, but since the BND cream is stronger I went for that.
All I can say is: INCREDIBLE! One month was all it took to see results - my skin had firmed up nicely, my butt was... FIRM! The skin on my thighs was FIRM! And well.. my boobs are still droopy, but they are very obviously improved from before. There's a very slight lift from when I started, which I assume is due to the skin firming from the copper peptides, but since I'm a smaller D cup, I didn't expect to get too much lifting of the bust line. So the small lift I got is still pretty amazing IMO.
So if you're like me and need to tighten up body skin? Seriously give this stuff a try. I'm still astounded by the results I got. |

What is BND? Can someone post a link to it?
I'd be interested to try that... |

I love this stuff. I've been using it for quite a while now, probably about 18 months or so, and it definitely has helped my boobs feel firmer.
I never thought of using it anywhere else, though! Good idea! |

| That is great to hear, majorb. Boy, it sure is cheap compared to other products. At that price, a person could definitely try it without feeling bad if it doesn't work! |

Ladies, the BND cream is on clearance sale at dianayvonne.com! Well, the scented varieties (Asian Oud, Lavender, etc) are being discontinued so if you don't mind the BND cream scented, they're being sold for $30 a jar. I just bought 4.
rileygirl: Thanks! I hope to keep going, it just feels so much better to be a smaller size!
majorb: lol, I figured if it could be used on the chest & bust to tighten the skin, why not anywhere else? And it works wonderfully. Actually the part where I saw greatest skin tightening/improvement was on my thighs! |

Thanks for the info, maiea. When I looked at the link the first time, I just saw $11, but after you posted the dianneyvonne "sale price", I went back and checked. I had seen the price for the 0.5 oz cream! |

Oh! Yes, they sell small trial sized versions (the scented ones are again, on clearance for $7.50 a jar at DY.com), but at 0.5oz, I don't think there will be visible results yet. I only started seeing results after I went through about a 1/3-1/2 jar of the stuff (1.5oz or so). Mind you, that's for slathering on my whole body. If you're only using it for a specific area, 0.5oz might be enough. |

| I used this for probably 3 months, and saw NO improvement at all, darn it. |

BND did wonders for my boobs, too, in terms of skin thickening. It did however, also bring out some sun damage...
worth bearing in mind for those among us who have been or are topless sunbathers! |

| I read somewhere that people were using it on their arms, you know where you get that flabby hanging skin. I have some, but I am so lazy and forget to put it on. I am going to dig it out. |

I haven't noticed anything, but you might want to heed what catski wrote be careful if you have sundamaged skin as the BND might make it more apparent. I hate being out in the sun, so I've not had a problem with this. |

Good to know about the amount it took before you started seeing results! Thanks again, maiea! |

Unofortunately, I haven't noticed ANY effect. Doesn't work for everyone. |

Yup, I've used it on my arms. It worked to tighten up the skin well, but I still have "flab" there because of fat I still have to get rid of! lol. I just use the BND cream all over my body.
catski: Oh, that's too bad. I never even thought of the cream bringing out sun damage because I'm one of those who tend to avoid the sun. (I'm so pale you can see the veins all over my body - yuck!)
zverenok: you can also try dianayvonne.com They're based in the US, but shipping to Canada is very reasonable (but takes about 2-3 weeks). |
