Choose the slimming cream
A slimming cream: for what?
Cellulite is a natural biological phenomenon: about 65% of women say they suffer from cellulite on the hips, thighs, stomach and buttocks. In these areas, the fat cells put aside the fat and then burn it if necessary. But, sometimes, fat cells store more fat than they burn. And, consequently, the overload of fat gives the skin an irregular appearance: it is cellulite. Slimming creams contain molecules that act on the receptors of fat cells to release fat or prevent its accumulation. They therefore facilitate the elimination of fats, while at the same time smoothing the skin.
To know…
Anti-cellulite gel, anti-orange peel, slimming cream, firming concentrate ... Not all of these products have the same effect. Some products are content to firm or smooth the skin, without going beyond the epidermis, while others act on the accumulated fat. Choose carefully the right product for your needs.

Slimming creams: instructions for use
A slimming cream should always be applied through a gentle and regular massage to activate the microcirculation, decongest the tissues and regulate the lymphatic flow. In addition, the massage increases the skin temperature, improving the penetration of the active ingredients.
To apply it on the belly: massage with circular movements in a clockwise direction, making the cream penetrate.
For the legs: rise from the knee towards the upper part of the thigh, making small circles.
For the hips and buttocks: put your hands open on both sides of the pelvis and make large circular movements by pressing gently at the beginning, and then increasing in intensity, moving up towards the waist.
For the arms: massage going up from the elbow to the shoulders and insisting on the inside of the arm.
Useful tips
- Persevere!
To get satisfactory results, be patient! Allow two or three months, applying the product every day, for the cream to take effect.
- Choose the right principles!
Opt for "firming" active ingredients: silicon, caffeine, centella asiatica, essential oil of everlasting, bocoa… They facilitate drainage, smooth cellulite and give a toned skin!
- Drink!
At least 1.5 liters of water per day.
New: the film and the vaporizers
The most fashionable slimming products of the latest generation are the film-creams, which leave an invisible film on the skin, active for the whole day. Some products block the enzymes responsible for lipid formation. Others slow down the fat absorption process. As for vaporizers, they have the great advantage of not wasting too much time after a shower: a splash is enough, there is no need for massages and the action is continuous until the next shower.
