Cellulite, no woman likes to admit to it but I’ll hold my hands up high and say “I has it”. I never used to, but with age, weight gain from anorexia recovery and a few months forced inactivity due to my back I began to notice those pesky dimples mocking me from the backs of my thighs. When I saw a tweet from Oriflame introducing their Bioclinic Cellulite Reductor I popped myself first in line to give it a try.
Even at it’s introductory price of £20.95 (will be £30.95) this is one of the pricier beauty products I’ve ever used. I know as well that there is a no quick fix to cellulite but I was still hopeful that this would help get my legs looking lovely again…if my legs could ever be described as lovely!
The leafelet suggests using this roll on gel for a month for best results but I thought I’d start my review just a couple of weeks in as I am actually seeing some results. This is a clear gel that you roll on once a day and massage in. As well as using this I’ve increased my activity levels, my fluid intake and healthy foods as well as cut down on smoking- all key in being dimple free. I’m sure that even without the gel I’d be seeing some results, but just a fortnight after starting daily application I am seeing some real results and feeling loads better about myself.
It’s really hard to review a product like this but what I will say is that I like it and for anyone who wants to see speedy results who is prepared to put in some physical effort as well then I’d really recommend this. I’m going to carry on using this on a daily basis until the tube runs out by which time I’m sure I’ll be feeling brave enough for a pair of shorts come some sunny weather. I’m not one of those who believes in beauty products as a miracle worker but this has been a real helping hand, I had high hopes to start with having being constantly impressed with Oriflame’s products and I’m pleased to say this hasn’t let me down.
If any of you have some top tips for reducing cellulite and for overall improving the physical condition of my body- especially now I’ve been offically discharged from neurosurgery care with my back op being a success and my weight being restored to healthy, I’m well up for some physical activity and getting a healthy and toned looking body.

For me, the best thing for my legs and bum, the thing that really gets them looking smooth, is dry skin brushing. You can get a brush from boots for a fiver and if you do it every day (upward strokes towards the heart) it really transforms your body. It is better than any cream I’ve tried, so sure. Give it a go! 🙂 xxx
