No matter how much you search and hope, let’s be honest from the outset: there is no single cure for orange-peel skin! To tackle orange-peel skin, or rather soften its appearance, it’s best to build a few good habits into your routine and stick with them without giving up. In this article, you’ll find the Cellublue Method (oil, cup and orange-peel massager), in-shower treatments, habits to adopt if you have water retention, essential oils and cryo treatments, as well as how to apply an anti-orange-peel cream.
The Cellublue Method for orange peel skin
First things first, simply choose a massage oil suited to a comfortable anti-orange-peel massage. The Cellublue Massage Oil lets the cup glide smoothly over the skin.
Next, use the anti-cellulite cup for a targeted massage on areas where orange peel skin shows. You can use it on any area: arms, stomach, thighs, buttocks and more.
The Anti-Cellulite Cupping Cup is used for a suction massage that works the skin and the tissue just beneath it. In fact, this cup replicates the principle of the well-known pinch-and-roll technique, a massage long used in routines targeting the look of cellulite.
Finally, the last step in the anti-orange-peel method is the Orange Peel Massager. It follows on from the massage you have done with the cup and rounds off your routine.
To follow this method, the Anti-Cellulite Method Pack brings together everything you need for a complete routine for cellulite and orange peel skin.
Of course, there are techniques to master, along with a few tips to help you get your anti-orange-peel massage right. Remember to drink water after your session, just as you would throughout the day. You can also finish your massage with a cool shower for an invigorating feel on the skin.
The appearance of the skin varies from one person to the next: what matters most is consistency, with regular sessions week after week.
Orange peel massager or cup: should you use both?
The two accessories don’t do the same job: they follow one another within the same session. You start with the Anti-Cellulite Cupping Cup, on oiled skin, for a suction massage inspired by the pinch-and-roll technique. The cup can be used on all the relevant areas: arms, stomach, thighs, buttocks. The Orange Peel Massager comes next, as the final step, to complete this massage.
The Anti-Cellulite Method brings together the oil, the cup and the massager, so you have everything to hand. What matters most is repeating the sessions, week after week.
Beyond the Cellublue Method, a few complementary habits can support your orange peel skin routine. The key is to adopt them consistently.
In-shower anti-cellulite treatments
Our Shower Party range could be a valuable addition to your orange peel skin routine. Indeed, the Cellulite Shower Oil and the Cellulite Scrub could round off your anti-cellulite routine. Our shower oil, crafted from natural ingredients such as pineapple and green tea, has a double use: it is a cleansing base that is gentle on the skin and leaves it delicately scented, and it fits easily into your routine. As for the scrub, it is enriched with caffeine. Apply it to damp skin using small circular movements.

Water retention
Your orange peel skin may be linked to water retention. A few signs can point you in that direction: skin that looks unusually puffy, or a feeling of heavy legs. This is often referred to as aqueous cellulite. If these signs are pronounced or persist, see your GP.
Day to day, several habits can support your routine, and it is best to combine them:
- Stay hydrated: drink water regularly throughout the day, or herbal teas if you enjoy them, and go for a varied diet with plenty of fruit and vegetables.
- Our dietary supplements, such as our drink to mix with water or our Capsules, are made with plant extracts. They are not a substitute for a varied, balanced diet; if you are on medication, pregnant or breastfeeding, ask your GP or pharmacist before taking them.

- Massage yourself, again and again! The Cellublue Method fits perfectly into this routine. Finish your cup massage with a jet of cold water, starting from the ankles and working up to the waist. A refreshing step, pleasant for the legs, that rounds off your massage.
Essential oils
If you are a fan of natural skincare, explore the world of essential oils. Juniper, rock samphire, grapefruit, rosemary or lemon can all feature in an orange peel skin routine. To make your own home lotion, follow reliable recipes and use a vegetable oil as a carrier. Also follow the usage precautions for essential oils:
- They must be suitable for application on skin
- Ensure their quality and purity
- Do not use essential oils if you are pregnant or have allergies — always patch test your blend on a small area of skin before applying more widely
- Be cautious with citrus essential oils, as they are photo-sensitising. Avoid sun exposure afterwards!
Cryo treatments
What if you added a cooling sensation to your orange peel skin routine? No, you are not dreaming! Today, you can use cryotherapy-inspired treatments right from your own bathroom. The principle is simple: it involves applying cold to the areas concerned.
Our Cryo Cellulite Foam gives a cooling sensation thanks to the menthol it contains. Brown algae (Alaria esculenta) and Centella asiatica complete its formula. Apply this light foam morning and evening to cellulite-prone areas, starting with the lower body (legs, knees and/or thighs), then working up to the hips, buttocks and/or stomach. On contact with the skin, the foam crackles and releases an intense feeling of freshness.
Which anti-orange-peel cream should you choose?
There is no single best anti-orange-peel cream that would suit everyone. The most useful treatment is the one whose texture you enjoy, because that’s the one you’ll apply regularly. If you like a cooling sensation, a treatment with a cooling feel such as the Cryo Cellulite Foam, with menthol, brown algae and Centella asiatica, easily finds its place between two massages. Pair it with the Cellublue Method and the habits covered in this article: it’s their combination over time that counts.

Don’t forget your best supporting allies
The Anti-Cellulite Cupping Cup can be part of a wider routine, alongside a few basic lifestyle habits:
- Watch what you eat: enjoy food without depriving yourself, but avoid excess, and go for a varied diet.
- Exercise, or do some targeted exercises to keep your muscles toned.
- Cut down on alcohol and cigarettes, and drink lemon water in the morning if you enjoy it.
