Homemade recipes to beat cellulite
Accommodating the skin in an appropriate way to the needs of each person and the period of the year to which it is exposed requires precise information about it and is a previous and fundamental step to begin to overcome cellulite.
“To fine-tune the skin of our body, it is convenient to start with a polishing, which aims to extract the dead cells that overshadow it and dry it excessively.”
Polishing can be done mechanically, with some silica cream or abrasive, and chemically with glycolic. A mechanical polishing takes 5 minutes on face and 15 minutes on body; it can be done at home with a polishing cream and yogurt.
Polishing should be done once a week. When the skin is polished the interstitial spaces of the cells are further apart and favor the penetration of any substance that one can implant into the tissue.
Then it becomes necessary to incorporate a nourishing and moisturizing cream that contains a good percentage of liposomes and a few drops of glycolic acid to offer the skin the necessary acidity and vitamins.
In general, the skin during the fall and winter requires more emollients and lubricants, especially around the eyes where it is thinner and more exposed. See here more information about homemade exfoliant with coffee for cellulite
