During the holidays, everything tastes better than skinny feels. Check out these ways to debloat.
Dream Cream
When a cream claims to temporarily drain excess fluid from your body for instant bloat relief with strong effects noticeable within a few hours, you can skeptically avoid it - or cross your fingers and slather yourself silly. Look for us in the latter's camp where we'll be covered in the Sunday Riley Liquid Diet's depuffing formula. Too bad this one's also slimming our wallet.
Available at sundayriley.com, $105.

When it comes to after-dinner aperitifs, any overzealous eater will thank you for BYOing the full-flavored detox blend from Kusmi Tea, whose herbal concoctions warmed the insides of Russian aristocracy long ago. The brew packs a one-two punch with slimming maté and purifying theanine from its Chinese green tea parts.

Sweat(pant) It Out
In this condition, why even try to zip your fly? Instead go for of-the-moment drawstring vintage sherpa sweatpants by Splendid. When styled right, they make you look like you had a choice in the matter. Check out our full gallery of fat phat pants.

Counter the effects of a boozed-out belly with Caudalíe's crushed cabernet scrub, a shower version of the hair of the dog that bit you. Its natural formula of grape seeds, Gironde honey, and brown sugar works to slim by draining the bad stuff from your skin (leaving it quite smooth) to make room for more good stuff. Like booze.

Double dinner party duty? Don't let a body-con top put a wrench in your social calendar. Hide at least one and half dinners, two desserts, and three Kir Royales under a forgiving burgundy star-printed trapeze top by Paper Tiger.
Available at pixiemarket.com, $82.
Diamonds? After really overdoing it, leggings are a girl's best friend - even though the stretchy-slacks trend may very well be ready for extinction. But when lined with fat-blasting caffeine and moisturizing shea butter, looking so last year in a Lytess pair (which claim to reduce up to two inches from your hips after about three weeks of wear) is a risk we're willing to take.
