Cellulite Pants - Proven methods to get rid of orange peel skin

Only a few weeks the cellulite removal knickers were the fastest selling lingerie range ever at John Lewis, with some customers buying up to ten pairs of the £25 knickers in one go.

The cellulite pants promise a better firmer bottom, and banish orange peel effect on thighs and legs.

Adverts describe how the active bio-crystals built into the microfibre absorb body heat and stimulate cell metabolism, increasing blood flow to the skin; this warms the skin and fat cells are liquified, thus making the skin appear smoother and significantly reducing cellulite.

The Bio Fur cellulite pants claim to banish cellulite using special bio-crystals to heat the skin on contact. This melts the build up of fat cells in the body and smoothes 'orange peel' skin. A large percentage of women who wore the anti-cellulite knickers for 6 hours a day say they saw a reduction of cellulite.

Helen Spencer, lingerie buyer at John Lewis, was overwhelmed by the unprecedented customer response to the product. She says:

"Between 80 and 90 percent of women have cellulite somewhere on their body which is why there is such a huge market for potions and lotions in the category. We are approached very regularly with products promising the kind of results women want, but which haven't stood up to scrutiny."

She is absolutely right. Many of the claimed miracle methods are just too good to be true. It is a fact that these pants can reduce cellulite, and those who have worn them testify to their effectiveness to differing degrees, but in truth the pants must be used in tandem with an active method to tone the body.

Together with proper exercises, specifically designed to get rid of cellulite, the knickers can have some effect, but apart from a proven system their effects will be limited.

The pink area just below the skin surface (epidermis) is the deeper layer called the 'dermis'.

Below the dermis, shaded in a yellowish tone is subcutaneous (under the skin) fat. We all have this fat under our skin - without it we would die... some people just have more of it than others.

This muscle layer is where the cellulite reduction 'magic' takes place.

We all have this muscle layer just below the subcutaneous fat - without it - you would not be able to move or function.

When these muscles are not stimulated properly - they get soft and limp. Most people commonly refer to this as being 'mushy' or 'flabby'.

When these muscles in your cellulite zones are soft, limp and un-toned - it allows your skin and the fat layer to also be soft and limp and uneven... causing the skin to 'dimple' and pucker - hence giving you the appearance of "cellulite" - or the 'orange-peel' effect.

BUT - when you stimulate these muscles properly - you cause them to firm-up, even-out and create a smoothing effect on the outermost layer of your skin - the layer that you see when you look in the mirror naked.

In essence you are simply getting your muscles to tone-up and 'push-out' against your skin so it is pulled tightly and evenly around everything underneath it, such as the deeper layer of the dermis, the subcutaneous fat and the connective tissue.

There is an ongoing answer to cellulite that everyone should try. It is effective, practical, and can make a permanent difference not only to your skin, but to your self-image and confidence.

Consider these testimonies.
