Combined with a regular massage, this elixir helps stimulate circulation, “break” fat and firm the skin. A good habit to adopt for a more toned silhouette…
Ingredients
30 drops of EO (essential oil) of Atlas cedar or patchouli
25 drops of grapefruit EO without furocoumarins
4 tablespoons of organic calophylle, avocado or argan oil
Recipe
•Pour the ingredients one after the other into a glass or tinted, amber or bluish plastic bottle,
with a capacity of at least 50 ml.
• Close the bottle, then shake gently to thoroughly mix the ingredients and obtain the preparation.
How to use it
Shake the mixture before each application.
Apply in the morning and/or evening, massaging the areas affected by cellulite (inner arms, stomach, hips, thighs, buttocks, etc.).
Make tonic strokes from bottom to top, circular movements with the closed fist or palpate-roll (possibly using a suction cup for more efficiency).
friend advice
The preparation can be stored for 6 months at room temperature, protected from light.
Grapefruit essential oil with furocoumarins is photosensitizing. To avoid redness, protect yourself from the sun for at least 12 hours after application.
Take a test. Place a drop of care in the bend of the elbow. If the essential oils do not cause a reaction after 24 hours, you can use it without worry.
Not recommended for pregnant women or breastfeeding (because of the essential oils).
