Looking for natural solutions to reduce cellulite? Why not try medicinal plants? Many varieties exist that help smooth cellulite, tone the skin, and combat water retention. Here are the most effective ones!
Ivy leaves
Ivy is ideal for lymphatic drainage. It also helps improve venous circulation thanks to the hederagenin it contains. How can you use this plant to reduce cellulite? Dilute one tablespoon of dried leaves in a cup of olive oil, then let it macerate for 12 hours. You can then apply this mixture to your cellulite.
Dandelion
Dandelion contains a lot of potassium, which helps naturally combat water retention. Thanks to its diuretic properties, this plant facilitates the elimination of toxins. Drink an infusion 2 or 3 times a day: add 100 grams of dandelion leaves to a liter of water, then let it boil for 15 minutes. This infusion should be drunk cold!
Horsetail
Very effective for reducing cellulite, horsetail has powerful diuretic properties. So don’t overdo it! You can prepare the same type of infusion as for dandelion, with one tablespoon of horsetail leaves. Let the preparation rest and drink the infusion while it’s still warm.
Nettle to reduce cellulite
This magnesium-rich plant allows us to benefit from natural lymphatic drainage. Nettle is a very practical remedy, as it can be used in different forms: capsules, poultices, creams, etc. You can also consume it directly or drink it as an infusion.
You can also use meadowsweet (its anti-inflammatory properties help reduce cellulite from within) and Centella asiatica (which takes care of tissues while reducing inflammation).
What about the CelluBlue Cup?
With some of these plants, you can prepare oils or creams that you can apply to the skin before using your cup. This will complement the effects of the massage technique of your CelluBlue!
If you prefer to use plant-based poultices, apply them after using your CelluBlue Cup, and finish with a cold shower to rinse well and activate circulation. As for infusions, you can drink them throughout the day. With this natural, economical, and effective action plan, reducing cellulite has never been easier!
