Make Anticellulite Massage Oil

Make Anti-Cellulite Massage Oil


Anti-cellulite massage oil is a highly effective natural homemade remedy for areas of the skin that commonly form cellulite, such as the back of the thighs, under the arms and on the calves. Homemade anti-cellulite massage oil costs much less than commercially available anti-cellulite body creams, which often contain potentially harmful chemicals that stabilize the products during shipping and shelving. This recipe makes enough massage cream for about 20 applications, although it can be easily doubled.


Instructions


1. Pour 1/4 cup of coconut oil into a sterilized glass mason jar. Add 6 drops each of cypress and geranium essential oils into the jar. Replace the top and shake well. Let the mixture rest for about one hour.


2. Add 2 drops each of grapefruit and lemon oils, and 3 drops each of juniper berry, rosemary and lavender essential oils to the mixture. Shake vigorously.


3. Store the mixture in a cool, dry place, like a kitchen cabinet or closet, for 48 hours. Shake gently before each use, as the essential oils have a tendency to sink to the bottom of the jar and separate.
