It's finally time to bring out the swimwear! And because it's summertime, I thought covering ways to reduce the appearance of cellulite would be the perfect topic.
Let's face it, no matter what your body type is, the majority of women have issues with cellulite. It's just one of those bothersome thing, but it shouldn't stop you from feeling comfortable in your swimwear!

A new trend that many people are trying and seem to think works are body wraps - though I have not tried these myself, I thought it would be important to mention in case anyone wants to go ahead and see if that works.
However, there are cheaper methods!
Dry Body Brushing:
What exactly is dry body brushing? A dry body brush has natural bristles and a long handle. Dry body brushing should be done before you shower - and your skin (as many would imagine) must be dry.

How to body brush:
Another great and inexpensive way to reduce the appearance of cellulite (as well as get rid of dead skin and moisturize) is by using a simple DIY coffee scrub.
Generally I will dry body brush before my shower, and while in the shower use the coffee scrub; this has seemed to be the best method of reduce the appearance.

How to body brush:
- Dry brush when your body is dry, before you shower.
- Always brush towards your heart. Brushing away from your heart puts pressure on the veins. Plus, we are improving lymph flow. Lymph flows towards the heart.
- The first few times I did this, it was a little uncomfortable (the bristles are a little stiff). But by the end of the first week, I loved it and now find it relaxing.
- Start at your feet. Brush the bottoms of your feet. Then brush up your legs, long stroking motions towards your heart. I brush each area twice.
