Today kicks off our “Cupping for Cellulite” Challenge where we are putting the anti-cellulite powers of Bellabaci cupping massage therapy to the test. Here’s the challenge: 10 minutes of cupping, 6 times per week for 4 weeks.  I originally had the challenge at 20 minutes per day because I thought you were supposed to do 10 minutes on each leg.  Not true!  It’s one of the many valuable cupping tidbits I picked up during my [...]

Question from a fellow cellulite investigator: Has anyone heard of Artefill? It’s a facial filler that is supposed to last several years. Unfortunately I’m at the age where I’m young on the inside but for some unknown reason, my body and face refuse to comply with the inside Mary! Very ungrateful of me. I’ve tried Botox and juvederm —both work great but very expensive for such a short period. ********************* I started The Cellulite Investigation [...]

We’ve collected a lot of information about cellulite so far from books, interviews, online research, and our public tip line.  But one of the most important research methods here at The Cellulite Investigation is good old-fashioned experimentation. In the beginning, I tried to test my theories one at a time so it would be clear how much of an effect each one caused.  I gave up that approach because it took too much time.  I [...]

This week’s edition of News and Clues focuses on another treatment I am finally trying for myself: dermarolling. An inspiring cellulite success stories came in a few months back.  Sophie, a fellow cellulite investigator, had cellulite for years and nothing seemed to help.  After she was in a car accident, her therapist recommended a supplement to help restore ligament health.  She also started derma rolling once a month for Collagen Induction Therapy.  Her cellulite virtually [...]

We recently received a cellulite success story from a woman who used the T-Tapp exercise program to successfully banish the blight.  Based on your feedback and my initial research, it looks like this program is worthy of further investigation. What is T-Tapp? T-Tapp is a special series of compound muscle movements designed to put the body in proper functioning alignment.  Here’s the description from the T-Tapp website: Instead of just focusing on burning calories and [...]

Thumbnail image for Review of the iPant Anti Cellulite Shapewear from Wacoal

The following review was written by Elizabeth Walling from The Nourished Life (read more about Elizabeth here): ******************* When I found out I won the iPant giveaway, I was so excited to get the chance to do some real cellulite investigative work. The iPant seemed like an interesting garment–shapewear that was supposed to reduce cellulite rather than promote it. This was certainly a theory worth testing. What I Liked About the iPant I’ll admit: I’ve [...]

It’s summer!  That means we are officially in cellulite season, that time of year between April and July when media outlets push half-hearted stories about the dreaded blight.  Of course, advertisers are in high gear, too. Nivea has the largest anti cellulite marketing campaign of any company I know of.  Every year they hire a different celebrity to be the face of their “Goodbye Cellulite, Hello Bikini!” challenge.  Last year, Lauren Bosworth led the campaign [...]
