Peculiarities
Currently, one of the most common women's problems is the appearance of cellulite. Many women try in different ways to combat this feature of the female body. Cosmetologists offer many ways to combat orange peel, but usually the proposed procedures are quite expensive. That is why many women try to cope with this problem on their own, at home. To do this, they use scrubs, masks, special massage techniques or other means.
One of the most effective ways to overcome cellulite is to prepare oil with anti-cellulite properties for massage and rubbing of problem skin on the body. This procedure is very useful, since the rubbed oil mixtures accelerate blood circulation and have a beneficial effect on the skin.
Wraps, massages, baths and other procedures combined with the use of special oils can show significant results and help get rid of the so-called “orange peel”. Now many manufacturers offer to purchase ready-made anti-cellulite products from their brand. However, one cannot be completely sure of their naturalness and effectiveness. That is why you can easily prepare such a remedy yourself, at home. A homemade anti-cellulite oil will be no less effective than a ready-made product sold in a store, and perhaps it will even surpass the store-bought one in its beneficial properties.
What to cook from
The recipe for an anti-cellulite product at home is simple: to obtain it you need to mix only two components, which will be vegetable oil, which acts as a base, and essential oil. The first group of oils is called base oils, so they need to be taken in larger volumes than essential oils. Plant ingredients contain many different fatty acids, amino acids, as well as essential vitamins A, B, E and other groups.
Oily substances of the second group are essential; they have a very rich aroma, since they are highly concentrated extracts from beneficial plants. It is precisely because of the increased concentration and pronounced smell of these substances that they are included in small quantities in all cosmetic products, including anti-cellulite ones. A few drops added to the base will be enough to achieve the desired effect.
So, cosmetologists include olive oil, flax seed oil, jojoba oil, avocado oil, apricot kernel oil, grape seed oil and wheat germ oil as base oils that have an anti-cellulite effect. Oily esters that need to be added to the base plant ones are essential oils of grapefruit, orange, lemon and other citrus esters. They have a smoothing effect and help give the skin elasticity and firmness in problem areas. In addition, they accelerate the natural production of collagen and the breakdown of fats. Citrus essential oil also helps stimulate the regenerative processes of skin cells.
There are other useful essential oils that have an anti-cellulite effect. These include: cinnamon, oil esters of juniper, rosemary, cloves, sage, bergamot, thyme and others. They have an excellent effect on blood circulation and also accelerate metabolic processes in the body. In addition, they are able to perfectly tighten the skin.
Another type of essential substances that help in the fight against cellulite are floral oily esters. These include oils of geranium, sandalwood, lavender, patchouli and other floral plants. These oils accelerate the division of healthy cells, which helps replace old dead skin particles with new, better ones. Their anti-cellulite effect has long been proven; they are very effective and useful.
How to cook
To make a mixture with an anti-cellulite effect, you need to combine about ten milliliters of base oil and 2-3 drops of oily ether. As a rule, this amount is enough for one procedure for problem areas of the female body. But depending on individual parameters, as well as the volume of the problem area, you will need to calculate the required volume of this product. All of them tend to be rubbed in quite well and absorbed moderately, so for the very first procedure the specified amount of ingredients will be sufficient. The best effect of oils against cellulite is manifested when they are heated, but it is strictly forbidden to boil them, this is unsafe, in addition, it can lead to the loss of beneficial substances.
Subsequently, you can make this solution at home in large quantities. The best option would be to mix thirty milliliters of base oil and 10-15 drops of essential oil, depending on its type and specific properties. Usually one type of each such substance is used, but experts indicate that the most effective would be to use a mixture of several varieties of vegetable and several types of essential oils.
When preparing anti-cellulite oil with your own hands, it will only be important to observe the above proportions, and its composition will depend directly on you, your preferences and financial capabilities. The resulting mixture of oils must be poured into a dark glass container and stored in a cool, dry place, protected from direct sunlight; it is also permissible to store this substance at room temperature, but observing other storage conditions.

Cellulite is an unpleasant thing. When the “orange peel” appears, many representatives of the fair sex panic and do not know what to grab and where to run.
The variety of special cosmetics often makes it difficult to concentrate and choose the right method of combating cellulite. And we try one remedy, then another, then a third...
First of all, you need to calm down, eliminate panic and understand that the fight against cellulite must be comprehensive.
Sagging skin after sudden weight loss or sagging due to lymph stagnation cannot be eliminated with one wave of a magic wand. In addition to regular physical activity and a balanced diet, an excellent method for eliminating cellulite (or reducing its size) at home is self-massage and anti-cellulite wraps.
For any of these procedures you need a special anti-cellulite oil. What it is and how to prepare it you will learn from today’s article.
Anti-cellulite oil is a vegetable oil enriched with special anti-cellulite additives. Most often, certain essential oils play their role.
To prepare such a product at home, you can use almost any basic (herbal) product that is available. It can be olive, jojoba, peach, almond, flaxseed or grape seed.
The main function of a base oil is to dissolve (dilute) the essential oil. In addition, any vegetable oil softens and nourishes the skin, and also helps smooth the skin.
Essential oils for cellulite stimulate metabolism, help cleanse the body of toxins and waste, and increase skin tone. They activate blood circulation and increase skin elasticity.
Essential oils of lemon, grapefruit, tangerine, bitter orange, bitter fennel, wormwood, cedar, pine, juniper, bergamot, cinnamon, and lavender are used as anti-cellulite oils. It should be remembered that essential oils, despite their effectiveness, are not used in their pure form.
I think there is no need to list exactly what anti-cellulite effect each of the above products is characterized by.
Considering that the oil you prepare yourself should have a complex effect, the Beauty Pantry will simply offer you several such recipes.
An interesting, effective and gentle remedy that will help cope with the unpleasant manifestations of cellulite is homemade ginger oil.
Of course, any anti-cellulite cosmetics becomes much more effective if used in combination with bath procedures, diet and sports activities. But if you're not an outdoorsy person, you can improve your skin's condition by caring for it regularly with home and natural remedies.
Ginger juice, which is part of the organic product, tightens the skin, warms it up and improves blood circulation. Natural oils make the body more youthful and elastic, vitamin E saturates it with essential substances and rejuvenates the skin.
It is recommended to use this product in a course (30-40 procedures) every other day, alternating with more “powerful” mud and “hot” masks. This way you will achieve the desired effect faster.
- avocado and olive oil (2 tbsp each);
1. Peel the healing root and grind it using a kitchen grater or blender.
We extract the juice from it.
2. Pour avocado and olive oil into the bowl. If desired, replace it with wheat germ oil or almond product.
3. Mix the ingredients and add liquid vitamin.
4. At the last stage, add ginger juice to the oil mixture.
5. Mix all the ingredients, apply the finished product to areas of the body (requiring correction), cover with cling film. We wait 40-50 minutes.
Ginger oil absorbs well into the skin, so in most cases there is no need to wash it off with water.
We remember: before using any organic product, we check it for the absence of allergic reactions.
Citrus oil blend for cellulite
As already mentioned, you can use any vegetable oil as a basis.
To 3 tablespoons of base oil we add 3 drops of grapefruit essential oil, 3 drops of lemon, 2 drops each of orange and tangerine. Stir the oils and leave for some time (10-15 minutes) for complete dissolution.
For the citrus recipe, Beauty Pantry recommends that you use almond or peach vegetable oil. We use the prepared citrus mixture both for cellulite massage and for wrapping.
Based on the name, you probably already guessed what this product will consist of.
To prepare it, to 3 tablespoons of base oil (we recommend olive or jojoba), add 3 drops of essential pine oil of juniper and cedar, and 2 drops of fennel and pine. You can add 1-2 drops of wormwood (or replace it with pine).
All ingredients are thoroughly mixed and after a while used for cellulite massage.
Well, in this recipe we will use essential oils of lemon, juniper, bergamot and lavender.
Add 2 drops of each product to the base oil (any vegetable oil of your choice). After 5-10 minutes the oil is ready for use. This recipe is well suited for the wrapping procedure.
As you can see, in order to prepare cellulite oil at home, you do not need any special experience or any expensive products.
The only thing you need to remember is that essential oils are a concentrated product. When preparing any anti-cellulite oil (you can also create recipes yourself), the amount of essential oil for one procedure should not exceed 10 drops (per 3 tablespoons of base oil).
