Elancyl Cellulite Offensive Review

Elancyl Cellulite Offensive 14 Days - 100ml - $57 - triple impact for embedded cellulite.  I like the french name for this product better - "Offensive Cellulite" - because I think it really speaks to the heart of the issue for me - I hate orange peel skin and do in fact find it offensive!

So yes, you guessed it, another bottle of cellulite cream down the hatch (thighs) and here I am to give you my findings.  First off, the colour - bright green - is perfect!  I'm absolutely convinced that green products work better, I don't know why this is, just another one of my irrational notions, so just go with me on this one!  The smell is also great, very fresh and dare I say it, green!  It has a pump dispenser and what I think is very clever is the bottom of the bottle is rounded up so that you don't end up with an inch of product at the bottom that the dispenser straw can't suck up. The lotion itself is a gel/cream, not at all sticky and it absorbs quickly so I was able to get dressed right after applying.  If you have dry skin you might need to apply a moisturizer on top, it's not very thick and while it was fine for my skin during the summer, I suspect I would not find it rich enough for when it's cold out and my skin is drier.

Elancyl Cellulite Offensive promises to break the vicious cycle of cellulite in just 14 days, that it only needs to be applied once a day for 24 hour effectiveness and that it would prevent cellulite recurrence for longer lasting results.

My verdict:  In 14 days my thighs did look much smoother, not perfect mind you but I've accepted that perfection would take a miracle, lipo, or an avoidance of french fries, none of which are going to happen anytime soon.  Not only that, when my bottle ran out last week I intentionally used nothing else since to see if I would get the whole preventative benefit noted and my thighs are still equally smooth.  I'm not going to be able to hold out any longer to see how long the results will last, I'm going through cellulite cream withdrawal here!

If you really want to show your cellulite you mean business, use the cellulite cream in conjunction with this Elancyl Massage Glove and Gel - 200ml - $50.  This is a great shower tool, the massager really amps up your circulation and as we know, increased blood flow has all kinds of benefits.  You can use the massager anywhere you like (although I wouldn't recommend your face) and the gel has a great fresh scent (and it's green).

And since I know you are all wondering and dying to ask me - yes, the above picture IS me!  I really need to get out of the habit of wandering around almost naked!

You can find Elancyl products at most drugstores including my beloved Shoppers Drug Mart!
