How Do You Hide Cellulite At The Beach?

Last updated by Katie M.

You were well on your way. You were holding on, motivated by the idea of finally having a bikini body this year. But then the lockdowns and the laziness all hit you at once... That’s right, your cellulite is still there and not ready to leave just yet. But guess what?! Cellulite is like a little pimple, either we own it, or we resort to using tricks to camouflage it.

How to hide your cellulite when you’re in a bathing suit

Although it’s not exactly a great fact, cellulite is 100% girly and a girl’s problem at that. In fact, 9 out of 10 women have cellulite, compared to 1 out of 50 men. In fact, the female body contains twice as many fat cells than a male’s, and these are naturally stored in the body in anticipation of pregnancy and breastfeeding. Cellulite is natural, but it’s true that nowadays, with the influence of social media and the pressure to look like a goddess, it is often frowned upon.

1. Use self-tanner and shimmering oil

Self-tanner not only gives our skin a nice, sun-kissed glow, but also an even skin tone, which makes cellulite much less visible. The self-tanner acts as a foundation that blurs orange peel skin and gives the illusion of toned and smooth skin. As for the oil, it moisturizes and enhances our body. By pearlizing the skin, it reflects the light and helps camouflage cellulite.

2. Strike a pose

If you find it hard to deal with your cellulite in a bathing suit, you can make sure you stay lying on your towel. In fact, you should avoid standing cross-legged, for example. This position compresses the thighs and the stomach, so cellulite will immediately come out.

3. Choose the right bathing suit

The best trick to camouflage your cellulite at the beach is to tie a sarong around your waist, but frankly, it's not the best. Try to choose the right swimsuit instead. If you have cellulite on your hips and stomach, choose a one-piece swimsuit. If it's more in the thighs and buttocks, you can go for a shorty shape.

➡ If cellulite is a real problem for you, you can make proactive changes by modifying a few of your daily habits. When it comes to your diet, replace sugar and saturated fats with fiber and protein. As for your workouts, choose endurance sports such as walking, running or cycling, which will also improve blood circulation. Water sports are also very effective for building up the lower body.

Should I be embarrassed about cellulite?

Today, the trend is to accept things, I want to say "finally"! We can finally accept that we are all perfectly imperfect, yet we are beautiful and strong women, with our qualities and our scars. Sport allows us every day to take back our bodies, understand them, and love them... But I don't think that acceptance should lead to resignation. Indeed, there are things that do not depend on us and our will... On the other hand, it is always possible to improve these small details that contribute to happiness! One step at a time, don't remain a spectator in your life, and become a real actress! There is no magic formula to getting rid of the charming "orange peel", so, why not stop worrying about it, and instead embrace it? You can decide not to worry about it at all, and at the same time make a beautiful arm of honor to the current diktats of beauty, or set up an anti-capital routine to try to dislodge the fat or water as much as possible.

The editor's opinion: Enjoy it and nothing else!

Cellulite, fat rolls, breasts that are too small, too big, stretch marks, strange toes... We all have a little something that makes us uncomfortable at the beach! And you know what? We shouldn’t care! We go to the beach or the pool to ENJOY ourselves and nothing else. It's not a small mark of cellulite that will prevent you from enjoying the warm sand! And if this cellulite is so complexing that it prevents you from putting on a bathing suit, you need to start accepting yourself for who you are.

🤗 Understand yourself, accept yourself, be happy... Let’s do it here and now!

6 Strategies to Boost Self-Confidence in Teenagers

Building self-confidence in teenagers is essential, as psychoanalyst Erik Erikson highlights that adolescence is a key period for developing a positive and coherent identity. It also lays the foundation for healthy relationships. On the flip side, low self-esteem creates fertile ground for depression, anxiety, and eating disorders (I think I’ve hit the jackpot with all three…). So today, I’m sharing 6 strategies you can implement to boost your teen’s confidence.

The Psychology of Money

"I’m feeling good, so I spend. I’m feeling bad, so I spend even more! Does that sound familiar? Well, it does to me too—it’s exactly how I handle money. I spend to comfort myself or to reward myself… Clearly, I let my emotions completely influence my finances. But this is absolutely not healthy! To better understand how our emotions affect our finances, I decided to dig deeper into the topic. Because, over time, this behavior ends up putting me in a tricky financial situation…"

How do movies and television influence our perception of love?

I’m a 90s girl who grew up with Disney. I think that’s the case for many women our age, but for me, I realized that it completely influenced my view of romantic relationships: at 34 years old, I still feel like I’m waiting for my prince charming... Yes, cultural works like movies, and more broadly, television, can greatly influence our perception of relationships. Let me explain.

The Importance of Solitude in Personal Development

I love being alone, but for a long time, I avoided solitude. In fact, I enjoy doing my own little things, but I also love having a partner and friends to see. So, when I was single and distant from my friends, it really weighed on me. That period taught me how to embrace the kind of solitude we don't choose, and it was very beneficial for me. What do I mean by that? Why is solitude important? Now that I understand its value, I want to share my experience with you.

The Psychological Effects Of Seasonal Changes On Couples

I believe that every time I went through a breakup, it was during the winter. The change of seasons impacts our mood, our interactions, and therefore our romantic relationships, as highlighted by clinical psychologist Sarah Whitman. So, let's take a look at how each season can affect couples, to better prepare ourselves.

How Does The Fear Of The Unknown Dictate Our Choices And Paralyze

For a long time, I did nothing because I was afraid of the unknown. It's true that it's common to feel apprehensive about things we don't know or understand. This fear paralyzes us and too often dictates our choices... But why? What impact does this fear have on our lives? Now that I've overcome it, I want to share my experience with you.

The 4 Main Causes Of Unhappiness At Work

Work is a priority for most of us, so much so that we’re sometimes prepared to accept anything. We cling to a job for fear of losing it, sometimes even if it means suffering a thousand ills rather than being unemployed. Whether in small or large companies, office life can sometimes be a very bad experience for employees and can even be the cause of “officephobia”. But how can we detect the real causes of this unhappiness at work?

Professional Recognition

When I was still a student doing an internship, I will always remember something my manager told me: “At work, you don’t need your boss’s recognition. As long as they pay you, it means you’re doing your job well, and you don’t need anything else.” At the time, this sentence made complete sense to me. Several years later, I’ve experienced a boss who paid me but who also spent all day humiliating me, putting me down and yelling at me… I understood that a salary wasn’t enough. Professional recognition is an essential part of life and well-being at work.

I Hate Animals, But Does That Make Me Cruel?

How cute is this little dog / this little cat… Certainly in pictures, but much less so on my lap! I try to get away from animals more than I love them. Those who judge me to be cruel don’t think about the inconvenience of having an animal at home or the fear I might feel. I really don’t like animals, I’m even afraid of them, but where does this phobia come from? Let’s take a look.

What A Superiority Complex Means And What It Affects

The superiority complex definition refers to a person who seems to believe that they are better than everyone else. These people often talk about themselves in glowing terms and choose to make fun of those they believe are less worthy of them. They also try to take over and always seem to judge things as being beneath them. Although these folks may seem confident, they are in fact cruelly lacking in self-esteem. On that note, welcome to the paradox of the superiority complex, which ironically in 90% of cases hides an inferiority complex!
