Cellulite is one of the most frequent skin problems touching more than 85 per cent of women. Massages, sport, professional treatments can help you remove the stubborn orange peel, but you can also use home remedies to fight cellulite. Natural products that you can get in a drugstore or a grocery are not only cheap but also very effective. You don’t have to spend a lot of money to improve the condition of your skin and get rid of lumps for good.
ESSENTIAL AND ORGANIC OILS HELP REDUCE CELLULITE
It is proved that organic essential oils, especially citrus ones, help eliminate fat cells. We all may use them at home in different ways. We can, for example, easily prepare a homemade peeling scrub or cream. All we need is several dozen drops of citrus essential oil and half a cup of organic cold-pressed coconut oil. After mixing, apply a thin layer onto clean dry skin, and then rub gently until the cream vanishes. You can smell the delicate scent of fresh citrus and coconut, which is an undeniable advantage. To avoid skin irritation don’t apply essential oil directly on the treatment area. You should always mix it with organic oil (for example coconut oil), use cocoa or shea butter. There is a wide range of essential oils: juniper oil, cedar oil, cinnamon oil, thyme oil, salvia oil, basil oil, clove oil, orange oil, tangerine oil, grapefruit oil and others.
