Spring is a time when every woman begins to think about how ready she is for light summer dresses, and whether she likes her reflection in the mirror. As a means to solve problems with excess weight, a slimming cream is aggressively advertised. Due to natural human laziness, such cosmetics remain very popular, despite debates about its effectiveness.
In order to permanently solve the question of the advisability of using this kind of cosmetic products, you need to study two questions: how does the cream work, and what is needed to burn fat, and, accordingly, to improve the shape.
How does slimming cream work?
Cream itself does not break down fat. However, it contains ingredients that improve metabolism, help blood and lymph circulation and moisturize the skin: caffeine, citrus extracts, amino acids.
Thus, it becomes clear that a miracle will not happen. It is impossible to lose weight using only a cosmetic product. The approach should be comprehensive:
- proper nutrition;
- physical exercise;
- cosmetic procedures.
In the case of an integrated approach, the cream really helps and significantly improves the condition of the skin, and also consolidates the achieved result.
It should be noted a separate category - face slimming cream. There are not so many of them as body creams, but nevertheless advertising strongly recommends using these funds to form the oval of the face. There is no need to talk about their effectiveness, since their action is identical to the rest.
In this case, you need to remember that fat is burned throughout the body, and its individual parts can not lose weight. That is, the face is reduced in size due to an overall decrease in body fat. In this case, you just need to use a cream that will help the skin maintain elasticity and not sag - an effective moisturizer, possibly with a lifting effect.
How to use weight loss creams as efficiently as possible?
As mentioned above, the most effective use of the product will be achieved in conjunction with a healthy lifestyle. Weight loss activities include:
- diet food - in this matter it is better to consult a professional. However, the general rules are to reduce the amount of flour and sweets. Eat often, but in small portions;
- playing sports - the effect will be visible after the first visits to aerobics classes, swimming pool or jogging;
- cosmetic procedures - saunas, baths, massage and, accordingly, a cream for weight loss.
A few tips for use:
- self-massage always improves the result from the use of any means, that is, it is necessary to rub the cream with massage movements. Moreover, a massager is attached to many creams;
- preliminary scrubbing helps to remove dead skin particles, and the cream is better absorbed;
- contrast shower before using the cream prepares the skin and muscles, improving blood circulation, which has a beneficial effect on the effect;
- the use of cling film creates the effect of a sauna and also increases the effect that the cream for weight loss gives. However, it is worth remembering the precautionary measures and in no case do not wrap the film on the stomach and lumbar region, as this can lead to "steaming" of the internal organs - only the legs and buttocks!
Marketers use the habit of customers to accept the feeling of tingling, warming or tingling as evidence of the effectiveness of the cream. The result from the right remedy appears without any unpleasant sensations, and the price is not always an indicator of effectiveness. You can evaluate the effectiveness of using a cosmetic product in advance only by reading the composition.
Thus, we can conclude that the use of advertised cream or gel, lotion, concentrate of essential oils for weight loss may well give a decent result. However, only with its proper use and in combination with diet and, of course, physical activity.
