Cellulite

Yup that unsightly cottage cheese that lives under your skin. There are A LOT of things out there that say they will get rid of cellulite. I don't believe most of them. One thing I will say that I've found helps make your skin smoother is stimulating the skin. If you think about your cellulite and where it is, is that an area of your body that doesn't get much action? I know mine is. Its on the side of my thigh going toward the back of my leg.

I've read up on this a little because I didn't really know that body brushing was the thing it is. Apparently what you want to do is dry brush before you get in the shower. Brushing upward.
This promotes circulation which gets blood flowing to your skin to remove toxins that have built up there. Your skin should feel smoother and the appearance of cellulite should go down. I know that mine shows the most when I sit cross legged. It's very unsightly but with doing the brushing it helps my skin feel smoother. According to one of the blogs I read it takes about 5 months for serious cellulite to go away. Happy brushing!
