Ah… that annoying cellulite. I have to say that I think it’s literally a nightmare for very many women. As you know, it doesn’t hurt anyone to have it, just doesn’t look all that hot.
Speaking of that… what does cellulite look like?
Well, it’s pretty easy to spot it once you have it. It usually shows on your thighs or your butt and makes you feel really strange in that new, sexy bathing suite you just got.
When you grab the area of your skin where you have cellulite and squeeze it a little, you’ll most likely see little dimples on the surface of your skin. That’s how you tell you have it.
This condition only happens in women, although, very rarely, guys can get it as well. When they do, it’s usually due to some other illness not related to the cellulite at all.
Again, as I mentioned before, a little cellulite is not really a problem. It’s just a portion of fat that has gotten to close to the skin, and so, you can actually kind of see it. That fat should be in your body, just a little lower and the fact that it’s a bit close to the skin does not create any problems for your health.
Some people claim that cellulite is related to being overweight, but that’s not really the case. It’s not uncommon for people who are actually even a bit underweight to have cellulite. The fact is that everyone has some fat in their body so everyone can have cellulite.
So, we’ve talked about what causes it and what it looks like, let’s now focus on how to fight it.
1. Diet.
Obviously. Now, if you’re underweight and dealing with cellulite, I would really go and see a professional before you start putting less food into yourself. Generally speaking, diet that’s low in fats and a good workout program will help greatly.
2. Creams and pastes.
There are several different types of creams available at your local drug store or through ebay and amazon that will help you smoothen your skin up as well as soften it a little which will in effect result in the lack of visible cellulite. The ingredients that those things also have in common will speed up the way your body deals with fat so it won’t store that easily in your body.
3. The fun part…
Well… the last method I wanted to mention to you is wrapping. What happens is you get a massage and your body is brushed. Then they wrap you into things soaked with herbal substances or mud. Very relaxing. Very helpful for cellulite.
