DIY Fanny Facial Favorite Ingreeds

Continued from our Retreat & Renew Daily Tip.

Tackling the issue of tending to your fanny’s skin through topical and internal treatments including serums, scrubs and supplements (filled with healing, fortifying, circulation-encouraging, nutrient rich ingredients including cayenne pepper, horse-chestnut-tree extract, and cat’s-claw among some of the most unique), is essential to repairing your skin. You can slather the stuff on at home and avoid having to go in for spa appointments (while saving loads of money). Some of the most popular main ingredients are listed below with at-home instructions to talk you through:

Caffeine.
Yes, just like the stimulating stuff that we drink to perk up our minds in the morning, caffeine (a known diuretic) gets fluid flowing, pulling excess water out of the cells and temporarily minimizing cellulite’s appearance.

AT-HOME: Make a caffeinated booty scrub by taking your coffee grinds, mixing in a few tablespoons of nourishing olive or coconut oil and scrubbing it onto your backside when in the shower.

Cayenne or Chili Pepper.
Certain potent herbs and spices, include cayenne and chili pepper, help encourage circulation, therefore increasing cell turnover and improve the skin, creating a smoother, softer appearance.

AT-HOME: Take ¼ tsp powdered cayenne pepper, add it to ½ cup oatmeal and ½ cup full fat milk and scrub it into your skin when in the shower. Both the textured oatmeal and lactic acid-filled milk act as exfoliants, while the cayenne helps with circulation and cell turnover.

Lecithin and Fatty Acids.
Ingredients that include lecithin (such as egg yolk), and essential fatty acids (flax seeds, fish and nut oils) help repair cell membrane and minimize fat’s ability to squeeze through connective tissue, turning into cellulite.

AT-HOME: As you might do for a face facial, whip up an egg, then lie on your belly on a towel that you are about to throw in the wash anyway and slather the egg on your fanny. Let it dry before washing it off. The lecithin in the yolk and tightening effects of the white will tone and exfoliate your tush.
