Backside 'bumps'

Fact: we sit on our bum too much. The result isn't simply a spreading bottom; skin on our behind can get rough and pimply and eventually. The squeamish can avert their eyes ere - can end up like a plucked chicken's. Keeping in a state of perpetual motion is the ultimate solution, but it's just not practical. So your best bet is shock tactics; a combined approach of body brushing 9you can afford to be vigorous) and salt scrubs.

Simply take a handful of alt and rub it in a circular motion around the knicker-line area, which tends to be where 'blips' occur. You could also try custom-blending your own aromatherapy salt scrub. Take an empty jam jar, fill halfway to the top with salt and drizzle in three tablespoons of almond oil. Add a combination of 30 drops of your favorite essential oils; screw on the cap and shake like crazy. Leave to stand; cap and shake like crazy. Leave to stand; the oils will be abosrbed by the salt, leaving you with an inexpensive (but highly effective) butt scrub.

Massage with an anti-cellulite product also helps move built-up toxins away from the area (our backsides act a bit like the body-s warehouse. Some experts believe that chemicals which the body can't deal with from food additives to pesticides are wrapped in fat and stored there. Only massage, activity and gently weight loss shift them).
