Beat Cellulite --- Bottom Line Recipe

Cellulite is composed of fat deposits encased in fibrous tissue. If the overlying skin loses tautness as a result of the weakening of the collagen and elastin tissues, it will take the shape of any fat lying underneath. What you see is the fat cells around it puckering out, causing bumpy-looking skin.

Most salon treatments for cellulite involve massage. Lymphatic drainage massage is a popular treatment and is said to lessen swelling and ease water retention.

A home treatment recommended involves blending some dead sea salt and virgin coconut oil together, then vigorously massaging thighs and stomach area in an upward circular motion. This will keep you firm and beautiful.
