Most women loath putting on their bikinis because of the orange peel look known as cellulite. A new beauty trend called "dry brushing" promises to lower the appearance of cellulite by increasing circulation. Using a natural brush like The Body Shop Cactus Body Brush, made with cactus bristles, remove dead skin by brushing all over. This leaves your skin feeling massaged and the result is smooth and soft.
 
Every day, for those of you who have dry skin, take a few moments to brush your entire body. Before you shower it's best to wash off any excess dead skin. Make sure to avoid sensitive areas and be gentle. Also make sure to clean the brush and dry it after a few uses.
 
If you want to focus on getting rid of cellulite, target problem areas like thighs. Go over each small area at least three times. Some women claim they lost weight and got rid of toxins as well, however please note that it does take a daily commitment to see results. Be careful not to over-dry by following up with a moisturizing cream. A great cellulite cream option is Clarins' Body Lift Cellulite Control.
 
Instead of hating the flaws that we all have as women, love yourself by taking the time to nurture your skin and improve your overall health. Along with a clean diet and weekly exercises, these steps will have you bikini-ready by summer!
