People often mistakenly believe that looking after cellulite-prone skin is a long, complicated process, or even a pointless one! Yet with the right habits in place, it’s entirely possible to care for it day to day. To help you pamper your skin, simply follow these 4 steps, with consistency and realistic expectations.
Find support to stick to your good habits
Let’s be honest: to look after your skin, you’ll probably need to make a bit of effort and a few changes to your lifestyle. That can feel a little daunting, especially in the first few weeks. So to find your motivation and hold on to it, you’re going to need support! Whether it’s your partner, your best friend or even a colleague, find someone who understands why you want to make a change, who backs you up and keeps you motivated so you don’t give up after just one week.
Rethink what’s on your plate
Of all the steps, this one may well be the trickiest. Bad eating habits are all too easy to pick up and much harder to break! But if you want to look after your skin, it’s worth taking a closer look at your diet. Put simply, cut back on overly processed, fatty, sugary and salty foods, and focus instead on whole, simple, natural ingredients. In practice, your meals should be built mainly around plant or animal proteins, pulses, wholegrain starches, vegetables and fruit. So it’s time to have a clear-out in your kitchen: keep everything that’s wholesome and get rid of the temptations.
Move more in your daily life
Once you’ve found your support system and adopted a balanced diet, you’re not done yet, ladies! While diet is key to looking after your body, physical activity can also become part of your daily routine. You can of course take up sport and aim for 2 to 3 sessions a week. But if you haven’t quite found the motivation to exercise yet, that’s no excuse to stay put! There are plenty of ways to stay active without even noticing: walking to work, taking the stairs instead of the lift, going for bike rides… Get into the habit of moving for at least 30 minutes a day, as far as you’re able.
Make time for yourself and your skin
If you’ve made it to this 4th step, you’ve already built several new habits into your daily life. Now all that’s left is to carve out some time for yourself and pamper your body with pinch-and-roll massages and the daily application of creams and overnight treatments. These habits can round off your routine and help you give your skin a little more attention. And let’s be honest, this isn’t exactly the most unpleasant step, is it?
To look after your skin, there’s a trio to combine every day: a healthy diet, physical activity and pinch-and-roll massages with your CelluBlue Cups. The range also includes the 14-day anti-cellulite programme, which combines capsules and a drainer made with 13 active ingredients. These are food supplements: they are no substitute for a balanced diet and have not been shown to have any effect on cellulite or water retention. Find out more right here!
