Homemade anti-cellulite treatment

/in /by

The “orange peel” or cellulite phenomenon affects nearly all women, whatever their body size and shape. 

There are two types of cellulite: 

  • stage 1 cellulite ( hardly visible and painless to the touch),
  • stage 2 cellulite (“orange peel” effect visible to the naked eye)
  • and stage 3 cellulite (very pock marked skin and painful during subdermal massage). 

There is no miracle cure to make it disappear, but a combination of massage and targeted treatment will help promote drainage and reduce the unattractive appearance on the skin surface.

Here is a cheap and easy homemade anti-cellulite treatment!

Ingredients:

  • 100 ml of Perles de Gascogne hazelnut oil
  • 4 ml of lemon grass essential oil
  • 4 ml rosemary essential oil
  • 4 ml geranium essential oil

Preparation:

  • Pour the hazelnut oil into a 100 ml bottle.
  • Add the lemon grass, geranium and rosemary essential oils.
  • Mix together carefully.
