The CelluBlue Cup supports your routine for areas with an orange peel appearance (thighs, buttocks, calves, hips, arms). But what if you have stretch marks? Find out whether you can use the Cup depending on the type of stretch marks you have (recent or older), where the CelluBlue Anti-Stretch Mark Oil fits into your routine, and which techniques to favour for a gentle massage.
The CelluBlue Cup replicates the pinch-and-roll massage, a massage technique used on areas with cellulite. It is designed for all women who want to add this massage to their skin routine.
To find out whether you can use the CelluBlue Cup, answer the questions in this quick quiz.
I have stretch marks – can I use the CelluBlue Cup?
If you have recent stretch marks (pink or purple), do not use the cup. If your stretch marks are older (and have turned white), you can use the CelluBlue Cup by avoiding the affected area during your massage sessions.
Find the instructions for your CelluBlue Cup on our website.
In the meantime, you can use our Stretch Mark Prevention Oil first to care for the area. It is designed for all types of stretch marks and scars. Once you have cared for the area, and if your skin is no longer sensitive, you will be able to consider using the CelluBlue Anti-Cellulite Cup, following its instructions.
Why choose the CelluBlue Anti-Stretch Mark Oil?
The CelluBlue anti-stretch mark treatment features a formula that combines several plant-based oils.
Among them are jojoba oil, sunflower oil and sesame oil. Combined in a single treatment, they nourish the skin and leave it soft to the touch.
With 99.5% natural ingredients, the oil is suitable for all women. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, check with your doctor before using its natural formula.

- Why does it work?
What to do first
When stretch marks are your main concern, the best approach is to slow down and see how your skin reacts before moving on to firmer massages. In practice, on an area weakened by stretch marks, a gentle touch, plenty of oil and no harsh pulling are essential.
The aim is not to give up too soon, but to start again on a better footing: less pressure, more oil, more controlled movements and simple monitoring of how the area responds over a few sessions.
Using the cup safely
- Check the area before each session and never massage irritated skin.
- Use enough oil so the cup glides smoothly.
- Space out your sessions if the area remains sensitive, and seek medical advice if the problem persists.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Going back too quickly to the same intensity as before the problem.
- Mistaking temporary redness for a more serious warning sign, or the other way round.
- Trying several techniques at once, making it impossible to tell what is causing the problem.
Frequently asked questions
How should I use the CelluBlue Cup if I have stretch marks?
It depends on what they look like. On recent stretch marks, which are pink or purple, do not use the cup. On older stretch marks that have turned white, you can use it by avoiding the affected area. In all cases, follow the instructions available on our website and refer to the ‘Using the cup safely’ section.
Should I use the CelluBlue Anti-Stretch Mark Oil before the cup?
On recent stretch marks, start by caring for the area with the Anti-Stretch Mark Oil, without using the cup. You can consider using the cup later, once your skin is no longer sensitive, always avoiding the stretch marks and following the instructions.
What should I do if my skin is still sensitive after a cupping session?
Do not massage irritated skin, and space out your sessions for as long as the area remains sensitive. Avoid going back too quickly to the same intensity. If the sensitivity or redness persists, ask your doctor or another medical professional for advice.
