Everyday, I get emails from Skinny and the City (SATC). Yesterday's email was written by Chloe, SATC's fashion & beauty expert, showcasing a new lip gloss called "Huge Lips, Skinny Hips." Now, I'm a huge fan of lip gloss. Just last weekend I was all over Sephora in search for my next new best friend (since I'm almost all out of my current lip gloss). I almost bought one that changed colors depending on my mood, but had to put it down because of the ridiculously long line.
This lip gloss, really caught my attention though. "Huge Lips, Skinny Hips" actually has a nautral appetite suppressant called Hoodia (similar to glucose) that fools your brain into thinking you're full. It would be great for me for work when I have those random cravings for "office snacks" every hour or two. The thing with this product, however, is that Hoodia is not FDA approved which makes me question Hoodia's efficacy. But for whatever reason, it's still something I want to try. Even if it'll cost me $20.
Now on an Registered-Dietitian-to-be standpoint, I'm still also considering eating nutritious snacks between meals to keep my metabolism going and not about to starve myself if I'm truly hungry just because of this lip gloss. It's give or take really.
What's your take on things they're coming up with these days?
