Homemade peel
Seaweed masks and peels are affordable ways of dealing with cellulite. Seaweed, which is rich with minerals and a natural peeler, can help increase blood circulation, hence decrease the appearance of cellulite. The main ingredient of the home-made peel is seaweed. Don’t ask yourself, “Where will I find that?” Seaweed is sold on the internet, in many herbal stores. Dust seaweed, clay, lime juice and honey make a moisturizing remedy.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons of seaweed
55 g of sea salt
60 ml of olive oil
1 drop of essential oil
Preparation:
Mix all ingredients and put in a glass jar. Apply to the affected area every time before you take a shower. Use a moisturizer after showering. You can use this homemade peel every day.
SEAWEED MASK
This inexpensive mask can temporarily help lessen leg cellulite. Lemon juice, which contains acid, and honey, which has moisturizing capabilities, are a great combination for your skin.
Ingredients:
20 g of seaweed
125 ml green clay
60 ml lime juice
1 tablespoon honey
3 tablespoons hot water
Preparation:
First, grind the seaweed and mix it with the green clay. Add lemon juice, honey and hot water. Spread it on your legs and rinse after 25 min. Apply once a week
Tomato puree potion
Tomato puree contains high levels of lycopene. You can consume more lycopene in a puree than in an actual tomato. Studies show that this antioxidant can not only help repair sun damage caused by UV rays, but also prevents the decrease of collagens. By protecting the collagens in your skin and increasing the thickness of the skin layer covering fat cells, you can make cellulite, which is caused by fat cells, less visible.
The miracle of water
Consuming 8-10 glasses of water a day provides your body water and thickens the skin, thus lessening skin bumps. Foods with high levels of water also prevent skin dehydration. Fresh fruits and vegetables such as melons, cucumbers and vegetables with green leaves not only contain a lot of water, but also have few calories. Therefore, they help with weight control and the control of cellulite-triggering fat.
Linseed does wonders
Linseed supports estrogen levels and the production of collagen, which is the main material of connective tissue. Add two tablespoons of linseed to your cereal, yogurt, or eat it on its own.
