    firming creams, stretch mark creams, cellulite creams...

    does anyone have any experience with firming creams? i'm interested in using the breast sculpt kind and the kind to tighten the skin around my chin and neck a bit.... do they work or should i just save my money? is it true that if you use them too much they have the opposite effect? what about creams for stretch marks and cellulite? thanks girls!

    well hope this helps a little. the firming cream for males....works on your love handles...as far as your face..I don't know. I haven't heard anythign about reverse affects. Mederma works good on stetch marks....but if you tan that usually diminshes them a lot also. I have been meaning to try the mederma on my face, it supposedly works good for those little dots on your face where you had a pimple and it took forever to heal and now there is just this small little dot..but I notice it so I think everyone else sees it too.
    As far as Cellulite...cutting out caffeines, and grease and massaging the area.....getting the circulation going is the best treatment , but if youwant to cheat .....tell me how the creams work for you......everyone likes to be lazy once in a while you know, and its about that time for me.

    I used a product by Phytomer that I liked pretty well.

    I havent had the chance to try it yet but a girl at work told me that hemmroid cream will work to get rid of stretch marks. I don't know yet if it's true though. I personally have had good results with firming body lotion with seaweed and caffeine extracts in it and with cocoa butter lotion.

    I have tried this stuff for the past few weeks with good results. I think it's starting to work but it says use for at least 4 weeks to see good results.


    Right now it's also on sale 2 tubes for $25, or one for $18.

    I have used the Avon bust sculpt and I did notice it helped.

    For fading stretch marks DO NOT TAN IF THEY ARE LESS THAN 6 MONTHS OLD! It will make them redder, use a good cream on them and wash with a seaweed soap to help the skin cells shed and rejuvinate.

    For cellulite, Avon has a celusculpt, I haven't tried it, a friend has tho and she thought it worked for her, I don't see any cellulite on her legs anymore but she also cut out caffiene.

    i use the cellusculpt by Avon. It does work! I have noticed a tiny difference in just a week. after a month or two of daily use, my legs are much more toned, and the cellulite has really been minimized. I have recommended it to other girls, and have seen improvements on them as well.

    is cutting caffeine necessary? i'm a total junkie; in fact, my neurologist reccommended i keep up my caffeine intake to help stem off my chronic migraines. i'm doing the bodybrushing and considering tonalin, will that and celluscuplt still give me a good chance?

    A hemoroid cream DEFINATELY firms the skin. A lot of models use it under their eyes to de-puff, and to get rid of that nasty skin you get under your skin as you get older. The thing is...its only temporary, so you'd have to use it every day. You pretty much have to do that with everything though. Good luck!

    i looooooove avon stuff! i didnt want to mention it because i sell it, and didnt wanna get in trouble, but the cellusculpt, and lift and tuck are awesome... they smell good too, lol... ive also heard the lift and tuck is amazing if you need it under your neck...

    for stretch marks, avon has a new leg perfector... its good... its got a bronzer in it and a gradual self tanner to hide the marks

    I know its super cheap but I just started using this Jergens firming lotion and my but looks better already. Plus its a great moisturizer for winter months.

    Oh, here's a tip I found here which really works. The active ingredient in most firming creams is caffeine (topically) -- (The reason why caffeine internally is bad is largely because it dehydrates, so just drink a loooot of water.) Topical caffeine tightens the skin. So here's the ghetto version -- rub slightly re-hydrated coffee grounds all over the cellulite areas and leave it all on for fifteen booooring minutes, then rinse off in the shower.

    I look so much better an hour or so after doing this! Especially better after doing it two days in a row! I'm getting really sick of the annoying wait-rinse thing, though, so I'm going to create my own firming cream -- by pouring boiling water

    (doh! speaking of boiling water! *attends to stove*)

    over some crushed-up no-doz and making a little solution to add to normal cheap body lotion. That'll be easier. :-)

    Really, the Avon stuff is AWESOME, I don't sell it but a friend of mine does and she said they have had it for like 50% off, which means that the sculpting lotions are all like $8, which is so worth it because you see a huge difference in just one bottle. Try it, if you hate it Avon will take it back also.

    Ok.. stupid question but if rubbing coffee grounds on you helps.. what about maybe taking a coffee bath..? Or will that just end up tinting your skin and having you walk around smelling like hazel nut all day lol

    Cellulite is the appearance of the skin takes on as the fat cells in the deepest layer of the skin continue to store fat is pushed up towards the surface of skin. Though it is not a serious issue, but most of the women are more concerned about it.
