For those who hate doing crunches to achieve those sought after wash board abs try washing them away with Abdominal Slimming Soap. This soap contains caffeine, [seaweed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soapless-cleanser) and cocoa which affects the fat under your skin and accelerate the fat metabolizing process. According to China based company Softo, simply apply the soap on the abdominal fat and massage for 3 to 5 minutes until the effective ingredients absorbed by the skin.

**Implications** - While this invention may seem ever so slightly far-fetched, for those with troubling abdominal fat it could really be worth a try. After all, summer is here and so is bikini weather!
