Cellulite Tip

Hey guys - and when I say guys I mean everyone with and without breasts - thought I'd share this tried and true cellulite buster tip. Scrubbing. It sounds kinda like, "Whachu talking 'bout Willis?" but it's true. Apparently scrubbing breaks down the cell walls or some scientific mumbo jumbo like that. I mean, if you want I could research it and do another post but for now, nyeh. So anyway, how do I know this? Well to my horror and immortal shame I discovered a few months ago that I had the beginnings of the dreaded orange peel skin starting on my bum. GASP! Yes, even Goddesses get cursed at times. And I remembered reading about the brushing thing - for a while I thought they meant the other kind of brushing and tried that assiduously but it didn't work. Was fun though! So anyway, when I realised my mistake I went out and got myself this nifty Cactus body brush from The Body Shop and use it every three days or so and my bum is back to the sleek piece of machinery it used to be! Try it. I'm serious. It only looks hard but it feels surprisingly great! You'll be so grateful you'll be BEGGING me to take your money. But I'll refuse - at first.

I should really do the research into it. They say any cellulite cream with coffee in it works the best too. I eh know. I guess anything that helps to "break up" the fat cells or whatever. Anyway, I had try that brushing but it didn't wuk. But the thing is, I wasn't even checking, fus I was "occupied". LOL

it's a nice piece of info to know. I heard of the coffee thing. It's temporary though. like if you need a quick fix;) but the only real way is diet and exercise and lots of water. water causes the cells to become less dehydrated and gives a smoother appearance to skin instead of the "orange peel" appearance. then again, it has to do with genes as well and how your body stores fat. small thing!

hey hottie,
it's a nice bit of info to know. i read about the coffee thing but it's good for a quick fix. all the cellulite creams have caffeine because it gives a smooth appearance. It causes the skin to tighten but only temporarily. Eventually it will go back to the same. Cellulite has a lot to do with genes and how well your body stores fat so the only real way to lose it is by exercise, diet and lots of water. water keeps the cells hydrated and firm so that they dont get dehydrated and shrivelled up=0) this one works. trust me! and also, less black soda and coffee works. anything that you drink with too much caffeine is definitely not conducive to healthy skin.

okay let me stop now. i like your blog though. it cheers me up. i didnt know we had so many trinis on blogspot. this is so cool.
