beflattered.com LOVES

The beflattered team, all in our 40s, 50s and 60s have tried and tested  lots of great products  and when it comes down to flab we all agree one product is NOT going to make it go away overnight.

We firmly believe that the only approach is all round change – in fact we believe this for every problem ageing brings us. Attack it from inside and out and mend your ways!

We think you should take a long look at your diet. Make sure you have a healthly balanced approach for you and your family. This should be about eating to stay healthy all round and not skipping meals to stay slim and then pigging out because you think you’ve earned it.

Take a good Multi Vitamin and Mineral Supplement.

Look at what you eat and be honest with yourself. Chose a low acidic anti inflammatory diet

Make some Smart Diet Swaps.The good news is we still think chocolate is OK! One dark square at a time.

Every day a new diet tip or regime hits the media but one easy way to curb your appetite and cravings is to consider taking  Spirulina as a supplement.



In addition to suppressing your appetite this wonder food supplement is also very good for you.

Lifestream Lifestream Spirulina Tablets contains complete balanced proteins including all eight essential amino acids, nine vitamins and 14 minerals. Not only will you lose weight but your skin will be glowing, your immune system will be strengthened and antioxidants will kick in waging war on any free radicals floating about.

Unlike other diet aids this will naturally clean your insides, improves digestive and is naturally detoxifying. And with so much going for it we think its a health win win all round, you have nothing to lose but that unwanted fat and gain a detox without the pain.

Also taking Lamberts Professional Lamberts Green Tea 2750mg is a fantastic source of antioxidants so good for your all round anti ageing but particularly known for gently increasing metabolic rate and so converting food into energy.

Dr Marilyn Glenville of the Natural Health Practice has formulated some great products for women and their names say it all.


Get yourself a Bestcare Skin Brush it's a great all round discipline for body skin improvement and you’ll never look back. Read our take on Skin Brushing and its benefits here



And of course the topical cream. We love the finds in the Pharmacy as often all the money is in the formula and not the fancy packaging that’s why we think Pharmagel is a great brand.

For flab their dermatologists say that Slender Shaper Pharmagel Pharmagel Slender Shaper represents a dynamic contemporary clinical advancement in the treatment of cellulite and fatty areas of the body, legs, tummy and arms. Pharmagel report that this highly advanced “reducing” formula increases fat metabolism while offering the benefits of dermal smoothing and toning thus having a dramatic effect on the skin and its tone.


We’ve had a go and we all agreed that it made us look and feel better about our bodies. The massive shopping list of ingredients reads like a recipe for success too. With Aloe Vera, Copper, Shitake Mushroom, Mannentake Mushroom, Caramel, Cocoa, Vitamin B &C, Licorice Extract, Green Tea to name but a few.

If you are lucky enough to have dark skin then lucky you – if not and your skin is goosy and pale reach for the fake tan. It’s well known that having a tan lifts the spirits and makes you “look” slimmer so don’t save it for the Summer Fake It all year round.

At beflattered.com we think the best by a mile is Fake Bake all their self tan formulas are tinted with a wash-off cosmetic guide colour so you can see where you put it which is really important and helps avoid mistakes.

Fake Bake is made from only the finest naturally derived ingredients that give you a tan that lasts up to 50% longer than others.

The first thing you need to do is pick the right product for you and your skin tone and also your competency.

We really like Fake Bake Gradual Self Tan Fake Bake Fake Bake Gradual Self-Tan for Fair Skin for beginners and those with fair skin.

Use with the Dual Purpose Mitt [SKU: FB-ACC040] to apply and buff up ensuring your tan is even and natural looking.
