Beach Body Top Tip #1

Cellulite; dimpled appearance of skin caused by fat deposits that are just below the surface of the skin 
aka the bain of many a slim and fat girl's life.


 STEP ONE
  • cellulite creams: to see any difference you must use everyday without fail for at least 30 days
  • optimum time to apply cellulite cream is after exercise; this is when your metabolism and blood circulation are stimulated.  By applying at this time it will mean that the cream absorbs into the skin more easily and help to activate the ingredients in the cream.
  • the way you apply the cream is really important - firmly and in an upwards motion, starting from your knees working upto your bum.
  • ETM's recommendation - L'Oreal Perfect Slim (currently 1/2 price in Superdrug - £5.61)


STEP TWO

You can apply all the lotions and potions you like but nothing will beat good old fashioned exercise.  Reserve just 15 minutes out of your day to do the workout routine below and you will see and feel the difference in your butt and legs after just a couple of weeks.
15 minutes is no time at all, so there's no excuse



STEP THREE

AVOID coffee, fruit juice, fizzy pop, smoking and sitting on your ass all day
GO WILD FOR green tea (add a slice of lemon for added taste and zing), squats (make squats your best friend) and thigh massages.

Don't expect results overnight; all good things come to those who wait.

Get into a beauty and exercise routine and make a pact with yourself to stick to it religiously for 30 days. 

In the words of Helena Rubinstein "there are no ugly women in the world - just lazy ones."
