Use fresh coffee grounds on your legs to get rid of cellulite?


On the radio the other day they had people call in for their "home remedy" beauty secrets and one woman said after she makes her coffee in the morning she uses the coffee grounds and rubs in on her thighs because the caffeine in it helps to smooth out her cellulite.
Has anyone tried this?? or has anything worked for you to get rid of cellulite?

well caffeine is found in many of those products that claim to reduce cellulite- those products are not miracle products and the results are usually minimal. I dont see how simply rubbing on it for a brief while can help anything, it probably just exfoliates and makes her skin appear to look smoother

It works for me!
I know that Halle Berry just made the statement that she uses it too. It makes sense, and if you browse through many spa treatments, you'll find that coffee grounds are a popular spa remedy for cellulite.

Don't be afraid to try it! You drink coffee, so you know it isn't going to harm your skin. I also use salt and sugar for exfoliation, but coffee grounds does more than exfoliate. It is rich in oils, caffeine, and has the ability of lightly staining the skin. If you are a bleached blonde, I wouldn't recommend putting your hair in a bath filled with coffee, you may pick up some brown tint, but if you are a brunette, the coffee will add highlights and make your hair super soft!

Here are some links to spas that use coffee ground treatments.

never heard of it, but I am trying it as early as tomorrow morning.

haven't heard that one. I use them in my plants as fertilizer. my legs or my plants that is now the question!

Actually I have heard that, I was wondering the same thing too. However, until I find out if it works for real, I'm not waking up any earlier than I have to to rub coffee grounds on my thighs, lol, but I've heard it from more than one source so maybe it does.....

Ok. Caffeine applied topically to the skin DOES shrink fat cells. It doesn't make cellulite go away forever - it's like any other cosmetic application. A facial doesn't make you have gorgeous skin forever, right? Same idea. The caffeine in left-over coffee grounds (make coffee first, then use the grounds - otherwise it's wasteful, and it makes the same impression, whether fresh or leftover) shrinks fat cells, like I said, and reduces the appearance of cellulite. The easiest way to do this is in the shower - you can scrub the coffee grounds over your whole body for a nice effect that you generally can't see completely - but it is working. Try it and see if you're happy with the results, even if they're temporary. It's one of those things that some people think is a miracle worker and some people don't see any difference. Go ahead and try it, though. You have nothing to lose! Best of luck. :)

Oh that totally doesn't work! Cellulite is in genetics and basically even tiny celebs like Mischa Barton have it.

I have tried using coffee beans to reduce cellulite and it seems to be working. I use the mixture of warm coffee beans & olive oil and I wrap my thighs in saran wrap for about 30 minutes every other day.
