Whatever beauty cure you’re looking for; nature has a remedy for you! I make my own skin, hair and beauty products. It saves me alot of money, and, these home made creams, body lotions, hair rinses and body scrubs are all natural with absolutely no harsh or dangerous chemicals to worry about. You’ve heard of DIY?  Well, this is Abigail’s MIY – Make It Yourself .  The following recipe is one you can make to smooth cellulite.

Cellulite is certainly not attractive. I use this scrub on my thighs, as that is where my cellulite lies. Some women have cellulite on their arms. I am glad that I only have it on my legs. I do want to wear shorts this summer, so I use this ocean body scrub, along with shea butter to alleviate the ugly cottage cheese look.

So, for a quick way to tone your legs, arms and tummy, massage in this simple seaweed scrub. Seaweed and kelp contains essential minerals, like iron and zinc – that detoxify the skin, boost circulation and improve skin tone. That is why it’s a popular ingredient for tightening skin and ridding it of cellulite.

Here are the ingredients you will need to make your own ocean body scrub:

  • one tablespoon powdered kelp
  • two cups sea salt
  • one-third cup apple juice
  • two tablespoons honey
Mix all of the above ingredients in a bowl. Spoon it into a jar with a tight-fitting lid. In the shower, massage into clean, damp skin. Leave on for five minutes. Rinse with warm water and pat dry. This solution keeps for two days in the refrigerator.
Drinking plenty of fresh filtered water, exercise and saying away from fat-laden foods also help to keep cellulite away.
