Anti-cellulite oil combined with a pleasant massage can alleviate the symptoms of cellulite

Cellulite is the bane of many women and although it is a natural part of the body, we often struggle to alleviate its manifestations. It is in the summer that we pay more attention to cellulite, as we wear short dresses, shorts or swimsuits more often and naturally want our skin to be smooth and firm. One effective yet enjoyable way to promote smoother and firmer looking skin is to use massage oils with natural ingredients. Today we're going to present you with a recipe for a homemade anti-cellulite oil that combines the power of plant oils, green coffee extract and a pinch of cinnamon for an extra warming effect.

Anti-cellulite oil - ingredients

Ingredients to make 100 ml of natural anti-cellulite oil:

Anticellulite oil - procedure

Disinfect all the tools and containers you will use with a high-percentage alcohol - such as ethanol.

Mix the measured amounts of each ingredient and shake well so that the oils and coffee extract, which has a thicker consistency, are completely combined. The oil will keep for several months if stored properly.

Apply the oil to problem areas (thighs, buttocks, hips or abdomen) preferably after a shower when the skin is still slightly damp. Massage gently in circular motions for at least 5-10 minutes. For an even better effect you can use a massage brush or a gua-sha stone.

Anti-cellulite oil - the importance of ingredients

Apricot oil

a light oil that is quickly absorbed and leaves the skin soft and nourished. It is an excellent carrier for other active ingredients.

Castor oil

a thicker oil that promotes blood circulation in the skin. It is often used in massages precisely for its ability to "get the circulation flowing". As it is thicker, it is advisable to combine it with lighter oils, such as apricot and jojoba oil.

Jojoba oil

resembles natural sebum in its composition. It helps to balance the skin's hydration and gives it elasticity.

Green coffee oil

rich in linoleic acid and antioxidants. It helps firm the skin and, thanks to its caffeine content, promotes microcirculation.

CO₂ coffee extract

concentrated dose of bioactive substances from coffee beans. It has an invigorating effect, improves skin tone and promotes blood circulation.

Cinnamon essential oil (leaf + bark, a few drops)

gives the oil a warming effect that stimulates blood circulation and promotes the absorption of active ingredients. In addition, it has a wonderful, spicy scent.

Anticellulite oil - conclusion

A regular massage with homemade anti-cellulite oil can not only be a pleasant body care ritual, but also an effective step towards smoother and firmer skin. Massage activates the lymphatic system, promotes tissue detoxification and helps the body get rid of excess water, which is key with cellulite. In addition, stimulating the skin increases its ability to take in nutrients, which means the active ingredients from the oils work even more effectively. The combination of both light and nourishing oils and caffeine naturally promotes blood circulation, elasticity and healthy looking skin. The aromatherapeutic effect is also an added bonus - the cinnamon scent stimulates the senses, improves mood and creates a feeling of energy, while the gentle massaging touches relieve tension and stress.
