This problem is characterized by the formation of small lumps of fat under the surface of the skin that look like dimples, having the appearance of orange peel. To combat cellulite, find out some information about it below, then find out why rosemary tincture is useful in this regard.

Over 90% of women worldwide have cellulite, the causes being hormonal changes, overweight or lack of exercise. Although it can also occur in men, women are most affected, regardless of their body weight. So far, the exact cause of its appearance has not been discovered, as cellulite is difficult to treat.  In addition, it has been found that maintaining certain harmful habits can make healing even more difficult.

As you already know, there are certain cosmetics and therapies that fight cellulite and provide firmness and smoothness to the skin. The problem is that these products are expensive and many people cannot afford them.

Fortunately, we have some 100% natural and convenient treatments that offer excellent results if used regularly.

This category also includes rosemary tincture, which, when applied directly to the skin, helps fight cellulite. Today we present its properties and a simple recipe to prepare it right at home.

Why use rosemary tincture to fight cellulite?

Rosemary tincture is one of the best ways to absorb the properties of this plant through the skin. Its benefits are due to the strong anti-inflammatory action that improves circulation, combats water retention and reduces tissue inflammation. In addition, rosemary tones the skin, gives it firmness and prevents its flabby appearance.

Due to these important properties, women include rosemary in their beauty routine to combat cellulite.

However, it is important to mention that we are not talking about a miraculous product. Although rosemary tincture has been shown to help fight cellulite, you can’t expect it to completely eliminate the problem, regardless of your habits.

Therefore, in order to fight cellulite, it is also necessary to improve your eating habits, exercise and adopt healthy habits that stimulate fat burning.
