EVERY BODY IS BEAUTIFUL

If you are noticing any cellulite on your body, skip the self loathing and impulse buys on the shopping channel. Loving yourself completely despite perceived imperfections is the first step to caring for yourself. After that, if you still wish to change the appearance of your skin, use awareness and consistency. This is winning formula to avoid disappointment and to obtain optimal results for remodeling and toning. [ Comfort Zone ] has taken this into consideration with their creation of Body Strategist skin care products.

  • Edematous Cellulite accompanied by water retention

  • Adipose cellulite

There is no miracle cure! It is much more sensible to understand the causes and select the most sustainable product, whilst being constant and consistent, and starting as soon as possible. Cellulite and its imperfections are due to:

  • Genetics

  • Sitting or standing for too long

  • Incorrect diet

  • Smoking 

  • Stress 


All of these factors undermine and damage the microcirculation firstly and subsequently the volume between the capillaries and cells. This results in slower micro circulation combined with an inflammatory state. and this is what we identify as edematous cellulite. Irregularities in the skin can appear as:

  • Fibrous Cellulite: Painful nodules can develop as a result of the inflammation, characterized as fibrous cellulite or orange peel skin.

  • Adipose Cellulite: Lipid metabolism slows down after decline of tissue resulting in an accumulation of localized adiposity. 

  • Other imperfections can be associated with cellulite: water retention, swelling, fragile capillaries, loss of tone. 

If not treated, all these factors can lead to premature aging and appearance of stretch marks.

The key is to start treating cellulite as soon as it appears.

EXERCISE

Exercise is one of the best ways to get rid of cellulite. Increasing the heart rate with metabolic conditioning burns fat cells and increases muscle tissue. The fewer adipose cells you have, the less cellulite. As you build muscles, the skin will become tighter. Incorporate squats into your exercise to specifically target the legs and glutes where cellulite tends to be most prominent. Prior to exercise apply [ comfort zone ] Body Active Booster.

SELF CARE

Your experiences have made you who you are. Turn negative stories into positive ones by seeing all the good you have done with the body you exist in.
