Brush Your Body

This ancient Ayurvedic practice involves stroking a large paddle brush (such as this $5 option) in circular motions over your skin just before showering. Proponents of this routine (such as yours truly) swear that it increases circulation and lymphatic flow in skin tissue, along with reducing swelling. While body brushing will not reverse cellulite (there's no miracle cure for it, sorry), it can reduce its appearance. Just be sure to be gentle while brushing your fine self, especially on sensitive spots like your breasts and tummy.
