Effective Cellulite Cream

Are you plagued with lumpy skin on the back of your thighs, butt and stomach area?  This widespread calamity is known as cellulite and you are not alone.  Over 85% of women of all shapes, sizes and nationalities struggle with it and are in constant search for a cellulite solution.  There is no shortage of cellulite treatments and cellulite creams in particular, but is there really a solution for lasting cellulite reduction out there?  In this article we will discuss all the factors a cellulite cream must address to qualify as comprehensive solution for cellulite reduction.

In finding a comprehensive cellulite solution, we must first look at how cellulite is formed.  Cellulite is simply a collection of excess fat cells under your skin.  When these fat cells multiply and enlarge, excess fluids and toxins accumulate due to loss of circulation in these areas.  These oversized cells push against the connective fibers, breaking down the walls that structurally hold your skin together.  These fibers are made up of collagen and elastin, and are responsible for your skin’s firmness and elasticity.   The result is lumpy, cottage-cheese skin known as cellulite.  A comprehensive solution to cellulite requires the following three factors. First, it must deal with the accumulation of excess fluids and toxins in the affected cells. Then it must rebuild the lost collagen and elastin fibers in those areas.  For lasting results, the cellulite solution must boost the metabolism of fat in the treatment areas so that circulation and the breakdown of the fats continue.

An effective cellulite cream must have ingredients that address the above mentioned requirements.   Ingredients in cellulite creams that deal with fluid retention and toxic buildup are caffeine and herbal plant extracts like Cypress, Peppermint, Chamomile, Juniper Berry and Yerba Mate.  Retinyl Palmitate (a strong form of Vitamin A) and Tocopheral Acetate (a strong form of Vitamin E) in cellulite creams aid in collagen and Elastin synthesis. Natural ingredients in cellulite creams include fruit and plant extracts such as Grapefruit, Cucumber, Starfruit, Gotu Kola and Rosemary.  The extracts in these cellulite creams increases circulation in the cellulite areas as well as aids in cellular renewal and regeneration to tone and smooth the skin.  Cellulite creams with ingredients such as Acetyl-L-Carnitine, Nelumbo Nucifera, Cyclic AMP, Adenosine-5-Triphosphate and Coleus Forskolin extract aid in lipolysis (the breakdown of fats), increasing fat metabolism and circulation in fat cells.
