    Default nivea cellulite system

    sorry for two threads in one day .. has anyone tried the nivea cellulite system.. i think patches/cream and a lotion
    saw a blurb on tyra banks and it worked for them.. i'd like to try it just to see if it works but its a hefty investment for the system.. the patches you have to use twice a day or something for 4 weeks and my guess is each one is a one time use.. so adding up the price of patches for 4 weeks twice a day seems mucho money... i like nivea products and they are easy to get so thinking maybe ill just get everything and do it week by week.. like if the patches really make a difference then maybe the next week i'll buy more.. but not buy a whole shaboong of everything i'll need for 4 weeks until i know.. if nothing else im sure i'll be smoother and smoother skin is never a waste of money
    just was curious if anyone else tried it or is going to
    if i dooo.. i'll post results.. long ago and far away i was going to post my dr murad results but i couldnt swallow all those vitamins and only could afford one of the body products in the set ... the nivea system seems a $30 investment so think my next trip to cvs will be this
    i'm pretty smooth but notice in Bright natural light i can see things id rather not see .. day to day im fine but now that swimsuit season is nigh .. which means lotts of natural bright light.. thinking if this cheap thing works ill try it..anyways post thoughts on this

    I have that cream. It does make my skin look a bit toned after I massage it in, but I don't use it everyday bc I forget. It is a good cream and smells really nice.

    I say try it. Do the coffee scrub first, then slap that cream on. That maybe a good combo treatment. I'm gonna do that in the summer.

    Coffee really firms the skin nicely. Maybe try soaking in a tub with warm/hot water and coffee (I'm getting ready to do that now) its a quick firmer. You'd need to do it at least 3 times a week though and you do feel "wired" after the bath.

    I recently read that cellulite is caused by an imbalance in the ovaries.
    I wonder if there is any truth to that, since I've always had ovarian cyst and battled ovarian cancer.


    I've recently been hit with a wave of cellulite after shedding some pounds.
    My trusty Tonalin doesn't seem to be working as well as it used to.
    I'm doing endermologie with good results so far. I have a consultation on Thursday with a personal path guide to help me handle the problem once and for all. I'll post any information I get.

    I'm interested to hear what others have to say about the Nivea system

    have it, it didn't do much that I noticed.. there are a few threads on here about cellulite and how to "at least try" to get rid of it.
    A few are really interesting, like ones about tonalin or when Pamela used a rolling pin.
    i def. suggest doing a seearch before shelling out any money on anything, a lot of girlies on here have their own way to get rid of it.
    Please don't lick me, it tickles..

    I love the *subtle* advertisements on the Tyra Banks Show. Ever notice how every product she gives to real women for them to "test" works like a dream? That new Dove deodorant got women who never wore sleeveless shirts to go sleeveless! Wow!

    I've been using the cream for about two weeks. I haven't really noticed a difference but i try not to look at the back of my legs. I figured i try the whole tube and then see if it looks better.

    i got the patches, good bye cellulite cream and the cream that comes in a round jar sculpting or something so if im going to try this i wanted to just get the whole deal and give it a go
    I only see my cellulite in the bright light.. in normal light i cant even tell but its that natural sun that comes in the window and hits my leg right that lets me know its there.. and thats the sun that will hit my bum in a swimsuit so giving this a go..
    Says use the patches with the cream and leave patches on 8 hours so started early today since i have some time.. cant leave it on 8 hours as Im going out tonight so will be about 6 hours but says up to 8 hours so hoping 6 is enough for now..
    Found the patches to be slippery things.. got white surgical tape but because i put the cream on first my whole leg was too gooey for it to stick so got those brown band things that come in a roll.... so massaged in the cream and applied a patch .. one on the side of my leg and one on the back.. the patches are like 5 inches by 4 inches and i only needed a small amount for each side but just stuck the patch on .. next time i may cut them because you only get 6 patches and its $$ 2 per leg.. is 4 patches.. and one time use .. so i dont even have enough for round two tomorrow maybe ill cut them down So anyway put on a slimy patch 2 on one leg then wrapped my thigh in the brown bandage (cloth not sure what its called) to hold it on .. to be safe i pulled on these tight leg hose you wear after surgery for circulation from ankle to toe to hold all on .. then did other leg the same way and put on the hose... then for fun just rubbed all over my bare butt and pulled on spandex shorts so the whole thigh bum area is now all held in .. ill keep a check dont want to get a rash as there isnt much air flow going on and that can be bad anyways day one.. ill get more patches and do this for a few days maybe late next week when its a sunny day ill strip down and do the bright sunlight mirror test.. if nada ill post.. if big change ill post .. either way i'll post
    if nothing else all this rubbing and lotions should at least make me soft .. expensive but at least my skin should be better in some way

    if you want to get rid of cellulite, drink water and try skinbrushing. yes, skinbrushing. get a bath brush and brush your skin.

    i read this in a detox routine book, and it WORKED. and what, water is free basically, and a brush is no more than $3! a loofah would probably also work.

    if anyone is still following this thread i'm mid week into the routine i listed..
    and yes yes yes water and dry brushing good things... they are a part of my daily sometimes twice daily routine..
    so i gave up using the patches.. too dang expensive so just using the serum stuff... twice daily and pull up the medical tights just for fancy purposes.. i think it helps circulation and my skin is alway softer afterwards.. so today i did a peep test stood in front of my mirror with the natural sunlight beaming in.. i just have a small little strip on the back of both legs when i bend if that makes sense and only see it when the blaring sun hits me.. i see the same thing i did last week .. says skin is smoother in 2 weeks.. not even there yet.. and the cellulite thing is 4 weeks so im going to actually stick with this since im famous for not finishing what i started.. but almost 1 week later no change
