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 [...]

Just yesterday, we received a comment from Aundi who saw dramatic results with her cellulite after one month of using a foam roller. Foam rollers first came [...]

A few weeks ago, I received this comment/question from a CI reader: What about new cellulite removal toronto treatment called Venus Freeze? how effective is this? I hear people saying this is way better than velashape but I’m not so [...]
