Remove fat & cellulite with scrubs, renovate your skin with a treatment that prepares it to receive better the active ingredients from the creams applied.
A scrub can prepare our skin before receiving treatment thanks to the smoothing effect it has, making our skin look brighter & smoother. The scrub helps remove the superficial layer of the epidermis, removing the toxins accumulated in time & giving more oxygen to the skin’s tissue, preparing our skin forr the absorption of the active ingredients of creams & treatments that will be applied, increasing noteably their power & effect. Infact skin exfoliation allows us to :
- Clean deeper the epidermis but in a delicate way
- remove toxins & dead cells in order to have a better oxygen flow
- stimulate the production of new cells that regenerate body tissue
Furthermore:
- it acts on our microcirculation fighting cellulite
- increases the cream’s effectiveness
Anticellulite cream for example will give better results if applied after a scrub, even better if the scrub is homemade.
Here are some useful recipes:
ARM TONING SCRUB
Get hold of some powdered seaweed & mix a spoonful together with a capsule of vitamin C & rose hip oil until obtaining a soft cream. Rub it on arms & shoulders (especially the bottom part of our arms since its more at risk), before having a shower. Rub well with light movements, this way you will remove dead cells & firm up the loose areas. Rinse with lukewarm water.
SCRUB AGAINST CELLULITE & ORANGE PEEL
Mix 2 spoons of sea salt, 2 spoons of sweet almond oil & half squeezed lemon juice. Mix all the ingredients together & rub the compound delicately on abdomen, gluteus (butt) & hips with circular movements. Rinse with lukewarm water & towel dry. The salt drains the excess liquids from the tissue, the lemon is a cleanser & reduces the number of toxins.
LEG SCRUB AGAINST WATER RETENTION
Prepare a scrub with 4 spoons of yoghurt & 2 spoons of baking soda powder, cleansing & oxygenating. Mix the ingredients together in a bowl, to obtain a homogeneous mixture. Apply on both legs start from your ankles & moving up in circular movements. Let set for a few minutes than rinse off with lukewarm water.
These three scrubs are very effective & could be done once to twice a week, emphasizing on the critical areas with circular movements for a few minutes, before applying the scrub it is always reccomended to dampen your skin, & the ideal way would be to apply the scrub whilst under the shower. Obviously after the scrub our skin is ready to have the cream applied, even better if intensively, like in the case of cellulite appling a scrub 2 twice a week in addition to the daily cream will improve noteably the results, but make sure to read the labels on the creams & preferably buy natural creams, with no parabens, no preservatives & no petrolatum (petroleum jelly), these substances on the long run may cause permanent damage & many allergies.
