I’ll be honest—when I first heard about firming creams, I was skeptical. The idea that a lotion could tighten and sculpt a specific area of the body sounded a little too good to be true. But then, B-FOXY Inner Thigh Firming Cream by MAËLYS started popping up everywhere—on TikTok, Instagram, and in beauty forums. With a 4.5-star rating from nearly 2,000 reviews, I figured it was worth investigating.
At $49 for a 3.38 oz tube, it wasn’t exactly cheap, but considering how much effort I put into squats and leg day with questionable results, I was willing to give it a shot. If a simple cream could smooth, firm, and tighten my thighs, it had to be worth trying.
I used it twice a day for weeks, and now I have thoughts—some good, some unexpected, and some straight-up surprising. If you’ve been side-eyeing this cream and wondering if it’s worth it, here’s what you need to know.
First Impressions – What’s in This Stuff?
Before using it, I did some digging into the ingredients. Turns out, B-FOXY isn’t just a basic moisturizer—it’s designed to firm, hydrate, and smooth the skin with a few key ingredients:
- Microalgae Extract – Targets the appearance of fatty skin, helping to improve skin firmness over time.
- Tapioca Starch – Absorbs excess moisture, making it great for anyone who deals with thigh chafing.
- Coconut Oil – Helps fade the look of stretch marks while keeping skin soft and hydrated.
The texture was lightweight and silky, and it dried to a soft, powdery finish. I was expecting something thick and sticky, but instead, it absorbed quickly and didn’t leave behind any greasy residue.
Application & First Use
The directions say to apply a thin, even layer to the inner thighs twice a day. I followed the instructions and was pleasantly surprised by how smooth and non-sticky it felt. Unlike other body creams that leave a tacky finish, this one dried down nicely, so I didn’t have to wait forever before putting on leggings.
I also noticed a warming sensation about five minutes after applying it—not intense, but definitely noticeable. The brand doesn’t specifically advertise this, but I’ve seen other users mention the same thing. It wasn’t uncomfortable, just unexpected.
The Results – Did It Actually Work?
The brand claims you’ll see noticeable results by the second bottle, but here’s what I experienced after a few weeks:
- Smoother skin texture – My thighs definitely felt softer, and there was a noticeable difference in how even my skin looked.
- Less visible stretch marks – I wouldn’t say they disappeared, but they did look slightly faded.
- A firmer appearance – This was subtle, but my thighs did look a bit more sculpted, especially in the mornings.
According to clinical studies:
- 100% of users said their inner thighs felt smoother.
- 87% said loose skin was less visible.
- 83% said their thighs looked tighter and firmer.
While I wouldn’t call it a replacement for working out, I do think it made a visible difference in my skin’s texture and firmness.
My Takeaway – A Firming Cream That Delivers?
If you’re expecting dramatic, instant results, this might not be the product for you. But if you’re looking for a clinically tested firming cream that actually improves the look and feel of your skin over time, B-FOXY is worth considering.
It’s lightweight, easy to use, and makes your skin feel smoother and more hydrated. I wouldn’t say it replaces exercise, but as an added boost to a self-care routine? It’s a solid pick.
Would I repurchase? Probably. Will I also be keeping up with my workouts? Definitely. Because when it comes to firm, smooth thighs, a little bit of everything helps.
