Smoother, Firmer-Looking Skin? These 14 Best Cellulite Treatments Can Get You There

1. CLARINS Body Fit Anti-Cellulite Contouring Expert

This best-selling cream targets cellulite by helping visibly firm, lift, contour, and smooth your skin using 8 plant extracts, including organic quince leaf, blue button flower, and plant caffeine. The lightweight-yet-highly-moisturizing formula absorbs into skin quickly with no sticky feel (perfect for any time of year) and helps improve the look of cellulite with every use.

2. SOL DE JANEIRO Brazilian Bum Bum Cream

There’s a reason the buzzy body cream tops every cellulite cream list—it’s made with powerful ingredients like guarana, which has five times more caffeine than regular coffee to help visibly smooth and tighten skin. According to Dr. Nakra, “Caffeine reduces puffiness by constructing leaky blood vessels, [so] some feel topical caffeine may help for cellulite.” It also features a healthy dose of cupuacu butter that’s full of fatty acids, coconut oil to condition and moisturize, and antioxidant-rich acai oil that helps protect skin from environmental aggressors. Another reason to love? Its salty, beachy, caramel-y scent is absolutely addictive.

3. NIVEA Skin Firming & Toning Gel-Cream with Q10 Enriched Formula

We’ve been NIVEA fans for as long as we can remember—from their original creams to firming body lotions. This lightweight gel-cream formula is made with powerful antioxidant Q10 that helps defend skin from free radicals and supports the production of collagen, and helps firm and tone skin with regular use. It also absorbs quickly, so you can apply it all over and never feel greasy or heavy.

4. MAËLYS B-Tight Lift & Firm Booty Mask

This leave-on booty mask has been getting lots of attention for its firming and skin-smoothing benefits—and it’s got the clinical results to back it up. After panels of testing, it's been shown to significantly help improve smoothness, firmness, elasticity, roughness, and give skin a firmer-looking appearance.

5. BLISS Fabgirl Firm Body Firming & Contouring Cream

Infused with caffeine, squalane, and a blend of botanicals, this skin-smoothing all-over body cream helps improve skin tone and skin texture for a more firm, contoured appearance. Caffeine stimulates skin, while shea butter absorbs quickly to moisturize skin, and it’s also made with squalane which according to Dr. Nakra, “helps to deeply hydrate the epidermis and adds to the barrier function of skin. In turn, this may thicken the skin and may help camouflage deeper visible cellulite.”

6. WELEDA Birch Cellulite Body Oil

Weleda’s site explains cellulite as, “a natural occurrence that happens when skin’s detoxification process slows.” The birch oil in this cellulite treatment oil promises to help diminish its appearance by helping boost skin’s metabolic system. Additionally, wheat germ and jojoba oil deliver skin-healthy vitamins. Massage your skin with it daily to help smooth, firm, and tone, while enjoying its super fresh, invigorating scent.

7. SISLEY PARIS Intensive Contouring Care

It has a unique gel-oil formula that acts on your skin both day and night. During the day, pink berry oil, caffeine, white ginger extract to help define and firm both the look and feel of skin. At night, mandarin extract, andiroba oil, and plankton-derived exopolysaccharide help minimize the appearance of cellulite for smoother skin.

8. M3 NATURALS Anti-Cellulite Massage Oil Infused with Collagen and Stem Cell

The perfect product for your next DIY spa day? This hydrating massage oil that helps visibly improve cellulite while tightening loose skin, toning, and boosting your skin’s natural collagen production. Smooth it on after your shower to lock in the ingredients like grapefruit, eucalyptus, and lemon citrus essential oils that help fight unwanted fat cells and cellulite.

9. STRIVECTIN Crepe Control™ Tightening Body Cream

This transformative treatment is a favorite for a reason—it’s packed with ingredients that do more than target cellulite, they lift and brighten skin too. The lightweight formula also features potent peptides. According to Dr. Nakra, “Peptides are the building blocks for skin regeneration, and so they have been touted to help increase collagen and elastin in the skin to help camouflage cellulite.

10. AUGUSTINUS BADER The Body Cream

This award-winning cream from the celeb and beauty editor fave brand has earned its claim to fame. It helps reduce the appearance of imperfections for smooth, youthful-looking skin, and helps hydrate, firm, tone, and improve the appearance of cellulite and stretch marks. If you’re looking for a true multitasker, this one’s it, as it also helps soften and promote better skin barrier function for healthier, more resilient skin now and over time.

11. PAULA’S CHOICE Retinol Skin-Smoothing Body Treatment

Dr. Nakra says, “Retinol is a powerful skin turnover agent, and boosts the metabolic activity of skin. This produces tauter skin, which in turn may help camouflage cellulite.” You’ll find it in this body lotion that uses pure retinol, antioxidants, natural butters, and plant oils to help even skin tone, soften, and firm skin.

12. ELEMIS Body Toning Cellulite Program

Want to tackle cellulite two-fold? This two-step cellulite “program” by ELEMIS uses dry brushing and a cream to address cellulite by improving circulation and toning up skin.
