Anti cellulite creams number in the hundreds and if you are searching for the best one you can often be confused by the slick marketing. The best way to compare creams is to take a hard look at their ingredients. The premier creams will have ingredients and herbs for cellulite that are known to effectively improve the look of the condition.

Probably the most common ingredient is caffeine. This active ingredient helps to get rid of cellulite by eliminating the fat and reducing the amount of fluid inside the cells. Some creams use guarana as their source of caffeine and will list this on their packaging.

A second common ingredient that can be paired with caffeine is Retinol A. This ingredient is also commonly found in anti wrinkle creams. It is used to improve the texture and appearance of the skin. When combined with caffeine, it can be a very effective active ingredient.

Aminophylline is actually a medicine used to treat asthma but when used externally on the skin it destroys the fat cells. You will usually find aminophylline by itself rather than with caffeine or Retinol A.

These are the three main ingredients used in cellulite lotions. If your lotion doesnâ??t contain these ingredients then you maybe using an ineffective product.
