Flaunt More Skin Minus The Cellulite With These 9 Products

This article was first published on 6 August 2022. 

Have you noticed dimples or uneven lines on your skin lately? That’s cellulite — and yes, it’s completely normal to have it especially as you age. While cellulite doesn’t require medical attention at all (though it might indicate the need for a lifestyle or diet change), we totally understand if you want to get rid of it for that extra boost of confidence when flaunting your skin.

But first, what is cellulite and what causes it?

Dealing with cellulite is a lot easier than you think.

Cellulite is a harmless skin condition that often occurs around body areas that are most prone to natural fat growth. Areas often affected include, but are not limited to, your arms, thighs, abdomen, buttocks, and breasts. Cellulite is formed when fat cells push up against the skin, causing the muscle underneath the skin to stretch, leaving the skin with visible fissures.

Many factors contribute to cellulite, including hormones, ageing (since the skin loses its natural elasticity), and pregnancy. Lifestyle and diet practices that contribute to fat accumulation are also some of the most common causes. Cellulite appears on both men and women of all shapes, sizes, and ages. However, women are more prone to getting cellulite since women naturally develop fat in the areas mentioned earlier as soon as they hit puberty.

Cellulite can be dealt with naturally through weight loss, massages, and of course, skincare products.

Now that we’ve got the nerdy details out of the way, here are 8 cellulite creams to get in Singapore to help get rid of those skin dimples, stat!
