Although most women suffer from cellulite to some degree, it can be embarrassing especially in the summer season when more skin is on display. There are a number of ways to help banish cellulite, some of which are effective than others.
Dry Skin Brushing
Exfoliating your body is just as important as your face to achieve glowing, health-looking skin. Whether or not you suffer from cellulite, brushing your skin is a must. It stimulates skin cell rejuvenation and improves lymphatic flow, key to ridding your body of toxins which create cellulite.
How to skin brush:
Purchase a natural bristle skin brush with a long handle, so you can reach every part of your body
Skin brush before showering by using firm but gentle circular strokes over the entire body
Work towards the heart
Repeat daily
Skin may be slightly irritated for the first few days. If you find your skin is red and tender, use a gentler stroke.
Coffee Scrubs
Coffee is not only invigorating for your nervous system, it can also stimulate your skin by improving blood flow when used topically. In combination with dry skin brushing, you’ll get optimal results.
As most any of us can verify, coffee is invigorating! It is also stimulating for your skin, as it can improve blood flow when rubbed in topically. The best part is that a coffee scrub is incredibly simple to do and compliments the dry skin brush beautifully.
How to do a Coffee scrub
Instead of throwing out your coffee grounds, save them in a cup or jar and use the next time you have a shower. Dry brush first, and then step into the shower and massage areas of cellulite with the coffee grounds for a few minutes.
Wear loose Fitting clothes
Good circulation is essential for getting rid of cellulite. Wear a slightly looser fit to reduce cellulite.
Exercise
Sitting at a desk is one of the major culprits behind cellulite because it prevents sufficient blood blow to the buttocks and thighs. Make sure to take breaks regularly and walk around to get blood flowing.
