Let me start off by saying cellulite IS gender biased. Sure some men also suffer from cellulite but it is way more prevalent amongst the female population than the male population. I know, suffer is a strong word to use, but can you really blame me? Unless you're super confident in your own skin you will go out of your way to cover up those leg dimples you never asked for.
If you are one of the many women who have cellulite I'm sure you have at least considered getting rid of it. There are many products on the market now which promise to get rid of your cellulite and there are many websites that you can visit which will tell you that there is no possible way to get rid of your cellulite. Don't you just wish you could tell them - Watch me!

Dry brushing will improve the overall look and feel of your skin. You don't need expensive lotions to make your skin feel baby soft all you need is a little time, your dry brush and you will start to see and feel the difference.
When you dry brush your skin, you exfoliate it ridding the oldest layer of your skin. The circular motion you brush your skin in will also improve circulation and with better circulation your body can get rid of some of the harmful toxins in your body.

Did you know that in order to protect your internal organs from harmful toxins your body stores fat to act as a shield?
Dry brushing when your skin is dry is best, so do this before bathing. To see great results try doing it once per day and drink more water. Remember, water helps to flush your body of toxins. Pay more attention to those trouble areas! Check out Kiki Flynn's video below for more details!
Coffee Exfoliant Technique
Word on the street is - caffeine is found in a lot of the cellulite creams. Coffee has caffeine so why not use it? There are two methods which I will share with you today, one is with coffee grounds and the other is with instant coffee (no, they're not the same thing).
Instant Coffee
On your way to take a shower take some instant coffee in your hand. Take this coffee and exfoliate your skin with it taking more coffee when necessary. Before washing it off wait a bit. This technique has been said to tighten the skin and constrict the blood vessels. Bathe in warm water to help to get the caffeine into your skin to do its work. I recommend dry brushing the area before exfoliating with the instant coffee to improve the results.

Things you need:
- Coffee grounds
- Coarse Salt
- Olive oil
Preparation:
Like the instant coffee I recommend using this paste after dry brushing your skin. Exfoliate your skin with the coffee grounds paste in your shower area and rinse with warm water. Do this as often as you need to.
Intense Lower Body Exercise
Even though it's nice to have a quick fix to all your cellulite problems it is good when you keep your muscles in mind. Nothing beats having toned legs. Do lower body exercises such as lunges squats, sumo-squats, leg lifts etc to get the lower body that you want.
Check out the video below for some anti-cellulite workout.
- In a large enough bowl add 1 cup of coffee grounds.
- Add about half cup of coarse sea salt.
- Add enough oil to make the coffee-salt mixture into a paste. It should not be runny.
