What Is Cellulite

The two most effective ingredients in any cream are caffeine and retinol, according to doctors. They work by firming the outer layer of the skin to relieve the telltale bumps. Other ingredients in cream are there to help improve the look of the skin by smoothing the surface. They can decrease the stretch marks and increase the skin softness. Ingredients such as Par Elastyl and collagen help to firm the skin while Ginkgo, green tea and horse chestnut help tone the skin.
