3 Natural Cellulite Remedy Fixes
Here are 3 natural cellulite remedy fixes you may not have heard about that don't cost much and anyone can try.

#1) Coffee Grounds

Rub approximate 1/2 cup of warm brewed coffee grounds into dimpled areas (the heat helps to release the caffeine) and then use plastic wrap to trap the grounds against your skin. Think of this as your own spa caffeine body wrap.

Leave the plastic wrap on for about 10-15 minutes. Since caffeine is a diuretic, it helps shrink skin cells for a tighter look. Effects can last up to 24 hours.

#2) Cranberry Juice

Cranberries are a great source of bioflavonoids, antioxidants that have been proven to help improve circulation (one of the reasons for cellulite is poor circulation). Try drinking one glass of pure cranberry juice a day and you should see a difference in approximately 3 weeks.

(However pure cranberry juice can also be expensive – and strong tasting – so you might want to try watering it down a bit and sipping throughout the day).

This may not be as fast as the coffee grounds method but it will also give you the advantage of more beautiful skin and lots of antioxidant benefits.

#3) Seaweed Baths

Seaweed is an excellent detoxifier and helps to release trapped toxins that are often stored in the fat cells. A seaweed bath can increase blood and lymph flow to circulation-starved areas, break down cellulite, and move the resultant waste out of your body.

Take a sheet of seaweed (you can find seaweed at your local grocery store usually in the health food section), break it up and add it to your bathwater. Soak at least 10 – 15 minutes.

While it may not be as effective, this is still an excellent substitute for those expensive seaweed baths you get at the spa.

So those are three ways to start losing cellulite in a natural way.

I'm sure coke and other carbonated beverages that contain caffeine are not helping the cellulite but I don't think coffee adds to the cellulite problem. Drinking watter and staying hydrated, running, and eating right helps with cellulite and any other jiggle you might have. Also Palmer's coco butter is good and Nevia has a new lotion for cellulite. I use Palmer's coco butter and I like it. It also smooths, and helps with stretch marks. If you have a sun burn use this lotion and it will turn your burn into a tan.

In order to fight cellulite, avoid highly processed foods, caffeine, and alcohol. Instead eat a low-fat, low-sugar, high-fiber diet with emphasis on fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.

There are many medical treatments available for treating cellulite. But you need to use them regularly. If you stop the treatment, the cellulite will reappear. Make it a part of your regular beauty treatment, leading to considerable reduction in the appearance of cellulite.

There are some over-the-counter cellulite treatments that are very effective in minimizing the appearance of cellulite. Cellulite creams, lotions and gels are widely used in treating cellulite. Massage the cellulite-prone areas vigorously for some time to make these products work better. Massaging improves the blood circulation to the affected parts. It destroys the collagen bands that are responsible for constriction, giving the puckered look to the affected areas. The smoothing and tightening chemicals caffeine and aminophylline; present in the skin will smoothen and tighten the skin.

You can also go for endermology, which is a big mechanical pressure device. It uses the same process as that used by the rolling pin when it rolls out the dough while making cookies. This device kneads the affected areas with great pressure to destroy the collagen bands. It leads to smoothening of the puckered area, giving it an even and toned look. Many users have reported excellent results by using this device. But the cost, repeated visits for treatment, uncomfortable and at times slight pain causing temporary bruising are the major disadvantages of this method.

I used it for several months. It made a slight improvement, but as soon as I stopped using it any noticible improvement went away. My advice is don't bother with it unless you want to use it forever.

Other things that help diminish cellulite are avoiding caffeine, drinking lots of water, doing cardio activity, brushing the affected area with a course hair brush, and massaging the area every night.

Products containing seaweed and caffeine are the most effective but expensive.
What these products do is temporarily swell the skin taing away the lumpy bumps.
You can do theis treatment at home. Jest take some warm coffee grounds and rub them into your cellulite prone areas. Then cover the area with seaweed. If you cant afford seaweed use plastic wrap.
Let it sit for about ten mins.
or.
Use face firming masks to tighten your arms. simply apply the mask to the back of your arms and let it dry. Then rinse off.
These treatments have been used forever by models and pageant contestants.

Listen, this is kind of the easy way out, but I just answered this question for someone on here the other day, and they voted it the best answer, so hopefully it will help you as well….so here goes:

"I just asked my wife about this who's been trying to fight this forever, especially since our kids were born, and she's done some extensive research

She says that definetly the best way is through diet so you should always try that first but if you're in a huge hurry, and are adamant about using a cream she recommends that people try Revitol….

One major reason it's so good is because of it's natural ingredients that seem to absorb into the body, and isn't greasy like most. None work right away but this seems to have worked the fastest, and she's right because I'm the one looking at her…

Plus, it has alot of concentrated caffeine which is supposedly supposed to help….

Also (she just looked it up) it's got Retinol A which is huge factor in fighting cellulite and making the skin healthy as well. I guess all these ingredients working together kick some major butt…

Hope that helps

Cellulite is fat trapped right under the connective tissues of your skin, It's difficult to get rid of cellulite even if you loose a tremendous amount of weight. I've read that you can reduce the appearance of cellulite by improving your diet, decreasing caffeine intake, and staying hydrated. Lotions and cellulite cream along with a healthy diet and exercise may also decrease the appearance of cellulite.

More exercise, try to do it more than once a week. Every other day would be better if you can. My Mom had cellulite and I seem to have inherited it. Good exercise like high impact cardio and dance are good, step and pilates and yoga. When taking a shower or bath rub with a loofah if you can.

1. Diet

Drink plenty of water to flush out the toxins stored in fat tissue. It is best to drink four to six glasses of water daily to help fight cellulite. Avoid becoming dehydrated – once you start to feel thirsty your body is already short of fluids so don't leave it til then to fill up your glass.

Avoid excessive consumption of caffeine, alcohol, and foods high in fat or sugar.

Avoid foods high in salt and refined carbohydrates like white flour, bread and rice.

Eat plenty of fibre and wholegrain foods. Fibre is essential for helping eliminate waste products from the intestinal tract and decreasing the time it lingers in the intestines where toxins can build up.

Try to eat natural food – this means lots of nuts, seeds, fruit and vegetables and avoid foods with lots of colourings, preservatives and additives.

2. Exercise

Nothing can change and maintain the shape of your body better than exercise. Try and do at least twenty minutes every day and make it part of your daily routine. Exercise will help tone weak and saggy muscles and help circulation and will improve blood flow to cellulite-prone areas.

3. Quit smoking

Smoking can contribute to the accumulation of toxins in the body. The smoke you inhale from each cigarette is loaded with poisons and toxins. Smoking also dramatically restricts the circulation of blood, inhibiting the correct nutrition and oxygenation of the cells. If you can’t quit, try and cut down. And if you don't smoke, stay away from those that do.

4. Avoid unnecessary medication

The body is programmed to fight off minor illnesses like head aches and colds, so think twice before reaching for tablets out of habit rather than necessity. Particularly avoid diet-pills, pep-pills, sleeping pills, laxatives and diuretic pills.

5. De-stress

Make relaxation part of your daily routine and don’t let stress get on top of you. Perhaps try yoga or meditation to help deal with stress in your life.

6. Massage

Vigorous massage improves the circulation and toxins are flushed out too.
