- 1). Know the function of the creams. Contrary to the popular belief, cellulite creams do not eliminate fat cells nor do they help you slim down. Cellulite creams reduces inflammation of the skin caused by fatty cells. Do not expect to lose weight when purchasing a cellulite cream.
- 2). Check the guarantees. Some cellulite creams promise things that are just not possible. Cellulite creams that promise to increase muscle tone are probably not legitimate. Cellulite creams can only produce the appearance of muscle tone, not give you muscle tone, as this can only be done with exercise. Also, if the cream guarantees to eliminate all of your cellulite, it is most likely a lie as well, and should not be purchased. Because cellulite is a result of your eating and exercising habits, as well as your genetic makeup, it's difficult to get rid of it entirely. The cream will only improve appearance.
- 3). Stay away from "one-time-application" creams. Cellulite creams are temporary and will only work for as long as they are applied regularly. Creams that promise to eliminate cellulite permanently are probably a scam.
- 4). Choose cellulite creams that include caffeine and are rich in antioxidants. Caffeine will tighten blood vessels, alleviating cellulite, while antioxidants fight harmful toxins that would worsen cellulite. If a cream does not include one or both of these ingredients, it will not be as good.
- 5). Check for Retinol. The best cellulite creams will include antioxidants and caffeine as well as Retinol. Retinol thickens the skin layer which will help smooth out the rough edges of cellulite. A cellulite cream with all of these ingredients will be your best bet.
