I purchased it and didnt see much in the results. I told my Avon Rep if it worked, I'd buy tons of bottles to put over my whole body - hehe!! But think you're supposed to put it on like right when you want it tightened up and I take my showers at night and then sometimes I forget to put it on - so maybe I'm just not consistant enough putting it on. I just didnt see anything miraculous about it though. I have to admit though, for $15, the bottle is pretty large.

I didn't have cellulite until I got liposuction. They warn you of that before the procedure. I think we've all seen on TV how they jab that stick into your legs, there is no way they can take it out evenly so you do end up with skinnier legs, but there is a ripple effect. For a quick fix for the cellulite there are a couple companies that you can find at the more ritzy stores like Nordstroms and Marshall Fields that make a cellulite cream that actually pulls either more blood or fluid into the area to give you the smooth effect. I watched one of those "do they really work" specials on the news. I guess it would be good for a day at the beach or so, but it only lasts the day if even that long. I did try the Avon cream because my cousin is a rep, she has clients that swear by it, but I couldn't stand the smell of it so I never used it long enough to see if it even worked.

The best advice I ever got on this topic was

genetics have everything to do with cellulite and on into skin in general, wrinkles and stretch marks.
The whole lot of the them. If your mom or aunts had a hard time with grey hair, wrinkles, cellulite and stretch marks weither they were thin or not, you probabbly are too. If we had all the money we spend on them 4 things back in our purses, women could own most of the property in amercia I think

So you as a human form of your ancestors dna and genes have a set point for all 4 things, now you can make them better or worse to a extent from your set point. All four things have alot to do with simple circulation and oxygen intact. If your blood is flowing pretty good daily you are gonna have the best verision your genes will allow you of the 4 things. If you arnt exercising and have poor circulation, well your gonna be on the lower end of what your genes allow you to be.

And there are some hormonal things too, which again if you are pretty active, have good blood flow and eatting healthy, most likely your hormones are gonna be more balanced too according to your own personal gene path.

The best stuff to do to get on the good side of your genes or the best possible side, is massage, towards the heart, vitamins, exercise, fluids, and remembering to take them deep breaths daily and being gentle to yourself when you can.

The creams and gadgets can help inspire you to take care of yourself, I mean massaging your legs is way funnier if you got a nice smelling, creamy rich lotion to work with. So if Avon makes you wanna massage your legs , then by all means go for it If you rather stick with homemade cheapy massage oil and add your own cheapy fragrances well by all means, go for that too.

So many products we by for self care are really just our way to inspire ourselves to actually do it, and if you need to buy something to be insprired, then there is really nothing wrong with that. I dont doubt that most ppl if they read this cream will take 1 inch off in 4 weeks if you use it daily for say 20 mins , I dont doubt that will happen, how much is placebo affect and the actual ingredents is another ball game. If cooking oil motivates you and you swear it takes off inches and you rub for 20 mins a day on the same spot, I have a feeling you would loose a inch too I have no doubts you would see improvement, but not everyone likes cooking oil Infact cant think of anyone who does sooo the 15 bucks for a nice Avon product might be a good thing, your probabbly helping some woman you know in her home business, I would imagen the product smells good and leaves you feeling good cuz you did something good for yourself, And if you have the 15 to give, you just do and thats fine. But if you dont, just remember half the time you can make just as good products yourself for half as much, and the actual touch and massage and the act of taking good care of yourself is usually most of the results of any beauty product. It is a little bit of a mind trick, but you can learn to use that to your own advantage too.

I use the Avon Cell-u-Sculpt cream and have been for maybe 3 months. At first I used it on my worse areas, higher back of thigs. I did see a real improvement in that area, so I started using it on the few other areas with mild cellulite. I like the produce and can buy it on sale and buy one get one for free or for 1$.
Granted, I work out alot, cardio and weights, I'm 13 pounds away from my goal weight and follow a sensible diet, drink alot of water.

I'm an Avon Rep too. Hi there fellow Avoners!

I use it and have been able to tell a difference too. It's not a miracle for cellulite but it does make my skin tighter and thus I feel better about it.

i got the avon cream. my only qualm is that you have to rub it into your thighs for FIVE minutes twice a day. i feel like i could rub crisco into my thighs for ten minutes a day and see some results. i always got the impression that the cream worked because of the increased bloodflow, stimulation, etc. from the massaging.

now, the breast sculpting cream, that's another story. that stuff is killer. my b-cup breasts (formerly d-cup) have really begun to "perk" up after using it. two thumbs up.

OOh I'll have to try the booby cream!

I like l'oreal perfect slim for cellulite. It works in about 2 days and is great! I am a total convert, only problem is at £10 a tube I'll be saving it for summer holidays only!!
