Detox was briefly mentioned in Jan. on BSS - I have pasted the previous comments below:

From Terrixx:
I am afraid i only seem to detox when i am ill!

Am thinking about trying out the new Detox patches available in Campaign 4 from Avon. They look worth giving a try. I will post my feedback once done xx

From Fi:

Hi Terri

I have had the Avon Detox patches stuck to the soles of my feet for the past 3 nights. What my hubby has to put up with! Like the photo in the link magazine, the pads were completely black each morning. Who knows what makes them go black (sweat, I'm guessing)

Do I feel or look any different - well NO!

Other sales leaders have complained of headaches and smelly pads but I can't say this was my experience.

Therefore I will be interested to find out what you think and very envious if you look and feel a million dollars after using them.

As Aphrodite says, I think they probably a gimmick but for novelty sake, worth trying at least once!

Hi beautyscientist

Your expertise on the forum will be very valuable.

The Avon patches say the following:

"these detoxifying patches use a blend of natural ingredients, mineral rich dead sea salts and herbal extracts which are known to clean out impurities from the body ... apply one patch to the middle of the sole of each foot before bedtime. Remove and view the detoxifying effects, discard the patch in the morning. Use for 3 consectutive nights."

I believe most of the detox patches from other beauty companies are very similiar.

This is really interesting. I was just wondering about detox 'patches' earlier this week and debating whether to give them a try. The more I thought about it, the less credible it sounded.

Although a 'quick fix' is always tempting, we probably have to resign ourselves to the harder fact that detoxing needs to happen from the inside. Lots of water, healthy food and trying to live as cleanly as you can (whilst still having fun of course!) is probably the best way to detox...or is there a quick fix after all?
