Women hate having it and men hate looking at it. What is it? Cellulite. Unfortunately, 4 out of 5 women—regardless of their weight, shape or size— are plagued with some form of cellulite. With a plethora of products on the market claiming to rid or reduce dimpled skin, it is hard to figure out which one you should choose. Cosmopolite has taken the guesswork out of it for you. Cosmopolite put several cellulite treatment products to the test, and over the next few months, a different product will be featured.
First up is the Body Contouring & Toning Gel by Jurlique, a holistic skin care company based out of Australia. This freshly scented gel is full of herbal extracts and antioxidants. It is supposed to smooth, tone and firm your skin, which should lead to the reduced appearance of cellulite. The Verdict: 5 out of 5 beauty marks. Initially, I had a very visible “orange peel” spot on my left thigh. After using the Body Contouring & Toning Gel for only 3 weeks in conjunction with a balanced diet, exercise (5X weekly) and dry skin brushing, the spot was only slightly visible. After 6 weeks, I needed a map to find the undesirable spot. Remember, there is no proven potion that will eliminate cellulite.

The third product in our cellulite series is LAVERÉ Body Control Anti-Cellulite Lotion. After a month of use, your skin should show a visible reduction of cellulite, and more firmness, smoothness and moisture. The Verdict: 4.5 out of 5 beauty marks. A Savion tester, who had a mild case of cellulite, noticed satisfying results with this pleasant-smelling product. The lotion’s fruit acids and caffeine stimulate and improve circulation, which helps to reduce cellulite and fortify connective tissue for a firming effect.
