The everlasting struggle with cellulite has been giving women headaches for centuries. Of course, our modern lifestyles and high beauty standards have made the situation even worse. Cellulite is something that occurs in overweight as well as skinny women and, although there are some theories, the experts still haven’t figured out exactly what causes it. But before you resolve to the expensive and painful treatments and creams, you might want to check out some perfectly natural and cheap ways of getting rid of that ugly orange-peel skin.
1. Coffee scrubs
Instead of buying expensive scrubs and creams which often don’t do much to reduce cellulite, you can try making your own, natural scrub for little money, and know exactly what’s in it. Besides, we bet that although you love coffee, you had no idea that it actually has great effect on your skin, too. This scrub works on the premise that the scrub and a massage improve your blood flow, while the caffeine from coffee tightens the skin. Making this scrub is a piece of cake and chances are that you already have everything you need for it in the kitchen.
Ingredients:
¼ coffee grounds
3 tablespoons of sugar
2-3 tablespoons of coconut oil
You only need to mix these ingredients up until you get a paste and then store it in a jar. Apply it by massaging your skin with the scrub for a few minutes and then washing it. Repeat the process 2 or 3 times a week and you can expect results in a couple of weeks.
