Weleda Birch Cellulite Oil - 100ml

Firm, smooth beautiful skin after just one month.

It is mainly women who are affected by cellulite. Women’s elastic connective tissue, which surrounds the warming and protective fat cells of the subcutaneous (innermost) layer of skin, is substantially softer and looser than that of men. If the tension of these elastic fibres is reduced increased fat is stored in the cells of the subcutaneous layer. These cells can increase to ten times their original size and over time push through the weak connective tissue to the surface of the skin. The result is orange- peel skin, the typical picture of cellulite.

All Weleda body and facial care products are suitable for vegetarians. Ve - suitable for vegans

In the first four weeks Weleda Birch Cellulite Oil should be massaged into the skin with circular movements at least twice a day. For ongoing maintenance apply once a day. Massage the oil into the skin with moderate pressure towards the heart.
Tips: Massage into slightly damp skin – the oil can be spread easliy and does not leave an oily film.
Massage with a skin brush for five minutes in the morning before applying the oil. This helps to intensify the effectiveness of Weleda Birch Cellulite Oil. Brushing the skin with a loofah or cellulite brush helps to stimulate the metabolism and circulation. Dry brush massage also helps banish tiredness, relaxes the tissues and promotes lymphatic flow.

An independent study, carried out by dermatologists on a group of volunteers, confirmed that after using Birch Cellulite Oil twice daily over 28 days, testers’ skin was on average noticeably 22% firmer, visibly 21% smoother and cellulite significantly reduced. An informal focus group also reported an encouraging measurable loss in thigh circumference when using Birch Cellulite Oil – as much as 39.5mm.

35% increase in skin firmness after 28 days

Skin elasticity shows a 20% increase after 28 days

21% of skin smoothness after 28 days
