In keeping with the Nivea cellulite topic *pics included*
Permalink Closed


I don't know why I'm about to put myself through this but I thought I would share with you girls my results of the Nivea challenge. So I started May 4 and took the after picture just now. I don't know if I see a big difference, although, my skin feels a little firmer. I used the lotion/gel everyday once a day and only used 1 box of patches.


*Edited*
I took the pictures down b/c I was disgusted looking at them. If anyone wants to see just PM me.

Well considering that I only spent about $26 total on 2 bottles of gel and 1 box of patches I guess it wasn't bad b/c at least I know that it didn't do much. That's better (in my mind) than having to wonder if it would have been this miraculous makeover.

Don't be disgusted! FWIW When I saw the pics I thought, "why did she want this cellulite stuff? She doesn't have a huge problem back there"

Rosie - I agree w/ ttara, you have nothing to be disgusted about. Your thighs look great.

FWIW, I stopped using the stuff after a couple of weeks. Although, I think it was making a tiny improvement, I just couldn't keep up w/ the regiment of putting it on twice a day. Plus I thought it was too sticky.

Thanks you guys for the nice comments. I no longer wear shorts (unless they are knee length) during the summer b/c I thought they were that bad. My husband keeps telling me that they are not at all what I think they look like.

I saw the pics yesterday and I did see an improvement!  I started using the stuff but I think my thighs are hopeless and I couldnt' keep putting the stuff on all the time.  I wish I would have stuck with it though because your results looked great to me!  Don't be disgusted by those pics at all, you have really nice legs!

rosie, I saw the pics earlier, I thought I did see an improvement, although mild. I'm not sure if it was the camera angle but your legs looked thinner in the after picture.

I started using the Sublime anticellulite stuff religiously but then found my interest waining. I have heard that anti-cellulite creams temporarily shrink the cells so if you apply at night and look in the morning, the affects may have worn off. Personally I think a tan helps much more than these creams.

I tried to set up the camera in the same spot and under the same light both times but I think they seem a little slimmer b/c I have been working out for the last 2 months and have been doing squats and lunges like crazy. Maybe I'll start applying it in the morning then, thanks for the tip.

I wasn't sure if it was the angle or the cream! Good job on the weight loss, I think it probably helped more than the creams and p.s. you shouldn't feel bad about wearing shorts. Get a tan it will make a big difference
