Avon sells a lotion that I've been using for years and it does reduce that lumpy appearance. It is rather nice during the summer months because it has a cooling effect on the skin. Of all of the brands I've tried, I like this the best. It doesn't react with my regular moisturizing/sunscreen lotion, doesn't gum up, isn't thick or heavy on the skin. Warning, it did take a few weeks of continuous application before I noticed a difference.

    A good cheap lotion to try is Dove skin firming lotion. It works pretty good. You should also cut back on sweets and fatty foods and try to tone up because there is no way to permanently get rid of it yet so the more you build up the harder to cover and reduce!

    well those creams only offer a ten minute solution, they inflate the skin making the appearance less, but then they leave in about a couple of hours. You could get a tan, the darker shade on your legs also reduces the appearance of cellulite. I recommend getting coffee grains with lotion and smothering it on your legs in a circle motion up towards your heart. It's kinda like the cellulite lotion only except cheaper cause its' homemade! Try to get your blood circulation going, that is another thing about cellulite. NO circulation then the battle is even worse. Hope this helps and good luck.

    Lotions and creams don't work. A good, healthy diet and varied exercise routine with both cardio and strength training will help, but won't make it disappear. Sometimes even the skinniest women (Kimberly Stewart is a good example) have cellulite. Unfortunately, it's hereditary and women get it nine times out of ten. Though I have seen a few really fat men with it. You've just got to work your butt off (literally) and eat right. Good luck!

    Oh, almost forgot. Sometimes a tan can help disguise the appearance of cellulite. Try a good self tanner.
