Yeah, but it's tingly! It MUST be working!
I've read this from reputable places. I've also read testimonials from reputable people (yes, real people, without agenda's, not paid to say it) that say it helped get rid of the last little bit of "stubborn" fat.
If anything, it's additional yohimbe, caffeine, forskolin, etc.. Even if 90% of it is immediately dispersed into the capillaries in your epidermis, it's still in your system helping aid fat loss.
It also does help get rid of sub-q water. When I feel a little bloated from water, I put some on and quickly look and feel less bloated. Damn periods.
Then again that might be its only use. A diuretic. Not sure.
I just don't take all studies seriously. I mean, if the studies that concluded these products don't help was conducted on people who were severely obese, didn't change their diets, and sat on their ass, it doesn't mean it doesn't work on someone athletic with 10% BF trying to get to single digit BF%.
