Volcanic Clay Body Scrub for Cellulite

Sadly there is no quick fix for beating that orange peel look that decorates the thighs of 95% of women. Improved diet, drinking water, dry skin brushing, swimming and yoga all help. And luckily the volcanic island of Bali is home to mineral-rich clays, which seep into the skin to break down those fat cells that are packed in mattress effect under-neath. A good cellulite treatment is the Volcanic Clay Body Scrub at the Nusa Dua Spa.

Ingredients 25 gms ( 2 tbsp ) Balinese clay ( or any clay with purifying properties ) 30 gms ( 2 tbsp ) sea salt Water

Steps 1. Mix ingredients together, adding a little water to make a light paste. 2. Wipe cursorily over entire body. It leaves a thin, white film and feels prickly as it penetrates the skin. 3. Once the paste is dry, rub the skin so that it is sloughed away. 4. Shower and massage. The best essential oils for cellulite are nutmeg and rose. Add a few drops to a carrier oil your favourite body cream, and apply liberally.
