Truth be told there is no secret bona fide cellulite cure. Some say caffeine, which is found in this product, will reduce cellulite or puffy eyes. But the claim lacks solid evidence. In fact drinking too much coffee would only worsen your skin.

Another effective ingredient retinol is the primary naturally occurring form of vitamin A. Vitamin A is a cell-communicating factor that maintains the normal function of skin cells. It enhances dry or damaged skin by reducing flaking and restoring suppleness. Vitamin A is also potent antioxidant that prevents aging.

The product also contains a great deal of silicone which makes skin feel instantly smooth and velvety but that is only temporary.

Too bad there is artificial fragrance and alcohol in it, for which I took away half a star.

Safety alert: Cautious
