Peculiarities
Currently, one of the most common women's problems is the appearance of cellulite. Many women try in different ways to deal with this feature of the female body. Beauticians offer many ways to deal with orange peel, but usually the proposed procedures are quite expensive. That is why many women try to cope with this problem on their own, at home. To do this, they use scrubs, masks, special massage techniques or other means.
One of the most effective ways to overcome cellulite is to prepare oil with anti-cellulite properties for massage and rubbing of problem skin on the body. This procedure is very useful, since the rubbed oil mixtures accelerate blood circulation and have a beneficial effect on the skin.

What to cook from
The recipe for an anti-cellulite remedy at home is simple: to get it, you need to mix only two components, which will be vegetable oil, which acts as a base, and essential oil. The first group of oils is called base, so they need to be taken more by volume than essential oils. Herbal ingredients contain many different fatty acids, amino acids, as well as essential vitamins A, B, E and other groups.
The oil substances of the second group are essential, they have a very rich aroma, since they are highly concentrated extracts from useful plants. It is because of the increased concentration and pronounced smell of these substances that they are included in a small amount in the composition of all cosmetics, including anti-cellulite ones. A few drops added to the base are enough to achieve the desired effect.
So, to the base oils that have an effect against cellulite, cosmetologists include olive, flax seed, jojoba, avocado, apricot seed oil, grape seeds and wheat germ. Oil esters that must be added to the base vegetable are essential oils of grapefruit, orange, lemon and other citrus esters. They have a smoothing effect, help to give the skin of problem areas elasticity and firmness. In addition, they accelerate the natural production of collagen and the breakdown of fats. Citrus ether also helps to stimulate the regenerating processes of skin cells.

They have a great effect on blood circulation, and also accelerate metabolic processes in the body. In addition, they are able to perfectly tighten the skin.
Another type of essential substances that help in the fight against cellulite are flower oily esters. These include oil of geranium, sandalwood, lavender, patchouli and other flowering plants. These oils accelerate the division of healthy cells, which contributes to the replacement of old dead skin particles with new, better ones. Their anti-cellulite effect has long been proven, they are very effective and useful.
