I generally like Biotherm products (I think they're beautifully formulated and work very well with my type of skin).
And this is definitely tops.
Yes it's only a temporary tightening product so unfortunately the stellar results don't last longer than a few hours.
But in emergency mini-skirt situations it's a lifesaver.
For a 19 year old I have heinous cellulite, just as mother who is twice my age and 50 pounds heavier than me.
It's definitely a huge insecurity issue.
Nothing makes a bigger or faster difference for me, 60% reduction usually, especially around the parts of my thighs that show in mini skirts (butt and near butt, not so much) so those with little cellulite might see it all disapear for a few magical hours.
Chocolatey-coffee smell....loove. It's reeeally drying though, and for the steep price to add some lovely moisturizing ingredients in a reformulation might be a good idea.
Goes really fast, so only for special occasions.

Used this for a month, don't find it much better in reducing my cellulite look than the other cheaper creams I can get off the pharmacy or beauty shelves. It's pricey and I can get a USD20 product with just as good if not better results. of course, i understand cellulite are resistant creatures!
It is quite drying, and I'l prefer something that absorbs fast , yet leaves yr skin surface softer and more moisturised. This definitely doesn't have this effect.

this is a very good product, firms skin and makes the dimpled areas look more smooth however I have never had much cellulite. only a little on the back of my thighs.
if you have alot of cellulite the only thing that can rid you of that is changing your diet , cutting out the sugar and most of the fat from your diet, and exersizing. this cream will work even better if you do. but it cannot help rid you of cellulite when your eating fattening foods which as soon as they reach your blood go straight into your fatty deposits!. no cellulite cream can help you then.

OK, I am so disappointed in this product. After all the stellar reviews, I thought I'd see SOMETHING. Absolutely zero improvement whatsoever. I'm disappointed, because I'm generally a big fan of the Biotherm skincare like. Nice citrus scent, but not only is this drying (toned legs look taut/shiny, not ashy!), it's done nothing, nada, zip, zilch for the skin on my thighs. The only reason I didn't give it a 1 is because it didn't do any damage. Pass!

I did not like the container. I think it would have been more convenient to use if it was in a pump. I thought that it smelled really nice-- fresh and grapefruity. I think that using the lotion along with walking regularly makes more of a difference than just walking regularly. It was recommended by friends and I am glad that I tried it.

This treatment gel's purpose is really to help smooth dimpled skin from surface cellulite. For deeper cellulite, should use the other Biotherm product called "Celluli-zone".
Noticed that the appearence of skin where i had cellulite was definietly smoother and firmer. This product also works well for contouring the waist and firming flabby arms. From the pure extracts of thermal plankton in the gel, skin is also refined and smoother!
I actualy use L'oreal's strechmark eraser on top of this gel for my thighs and bottom and the two combined makes your skin baby soft!

I got this as a gift-card freebie from Sephora, I picked it out because of the word "choc" in it, not believing it would do anything for my cellulite, but hoping it would smell of chocolate! It smells of grapefruit, not chocolate, and though it has made the backs of my thighs as itchy as all hell, frighteningly enough, it seems to be taking my cellulite away. I apply it once a day after showering, for about a month now, and except for the hellacious itchiness, this stuff seems to be working. I have never bought into the whole "smear crap on your body in the vain hopes of ridding yourself of something over 90% of women have," I just wanted to smell like chocolate! Now I'm scratching like a hound, albeit a very sleek-thighed hound, and I'm not sure which is more unattractive: bumpy-assed me without the uncontrollable urge to scratch myself in public, or reduced-cellulite me, with a furious itch that could be misconstrued as symptomatic of a social disease. Can't wait to actually shell out the $50 next time. That might cure me of this equivocation.

Have been using it for 3 weeks now and see no improvement, will let u girls know if it does anything for me in the next coupla weeks. i really think the best cure for cellulite is massage! On the plus side this product smells and feels good and dries fast

I bought this because of the good reviews, and I'm not dissapointed. Unfortunately my skin has gone a bit dimpled on one of my thighs, and I see signs of cellulite when squeezing, and it also recently appeared on my bum. I'm happy to try anything to improve my problem areas and I am very pleased with Celluli-Choc. I don't believe it will get rid of my cellulites forever, and I'm probably doomed to continue buying the very expensive gel forever.. but it's worth it. After only two weeks of applying the gel morning and night, I saw clear results. The smell and texture is identical to Abdo-Choc, which buy the way sucks - it doesn't do anything. The scents is citrus-orange-like, not a very pleasant smell in my opninon. The gel is a bit sticky, but it makes my skin appear a bit smoother right after applying. The sad thing is, I'll get ruined, because the stuff is so expensive..

This is my favourite cellulite treatment! I also tried Clarins, Dior, Sisley and Estée Lauder, but keep coming back to Celluli-Choc.

Unfortunately I did not get the glowing results of some other girls. In fact this seemed to do absolutely nothing for me. That's too bad because the scent & texture were nice & there was no stinging sensation. YMMV

I've been using Clarins Body Lift Contour Control for about 6 years but decided try this for a change. It's comparable to Clarins but I wasn't wild about the smell and it was not as quickly absorbed as Clarins. I will probably switch back to Clarins.

This stuff is amazing! My skin looks immediately smoother and less dimpled after applying this. Of course the results only last a few hours so don't expect any long term effects. No product can offer you that. I use Celluli-Choc only for "special occasions", because it would be too expensive for continuous use.

It absorbs quickly, didn't feel sticky and the most important thing is it doesn't give "burning" kind of sensation like other firming products. This is why I love it so much. It definately tone and moisturize the skin, and really works wonder on cellulite area. It is really easy, no need to message, just apply one even layer, and u are ready to go.

This has a great citrusy smell. I'm not sure if this can rid me of cellulites, but it does leave my skin softer and smoother. I took one lipstik off because I don't like the packaging. I prefer a pump bottle, somehting like Elancyl's. Also, it's quite expensive, so I might try others before coming back to this one.

Great stuff. I glimpsed a view of my bum in the mirror-it looked much less orange-peel-y than before. I have been using it for only 2 weeks, but my butt is as soft as a baby's.. well, you know. Price is a bit steep-my only complaint!

This body gel makes my skin incredibly soft. It smells great and absorbs quickly. It, along with regular exercise has helped to make my thighs smoother. However, I will not be buying this product again because I found a similar product by Neutro gena for almost half the price.

This gel costed much money, but it's worth it. You can feel how your skin gets softer and how it it is lifted by this treatment.
I don't like the smell, though, but I don't need a good smell for an anticellulite-lotion ;)
I'm not applying it regulary, but it still helps to get rid of the orange-effect on the skin. Just imagine, how much it would do, if applied regulary...

I bought this and I loved it. It smelled so good and the cream was pearl shimmery and it was quickly absorbed into my skin. The results were fantastic and I could see that my "orange" skin was much smoother and less visible.
It's a sell out in many Biotherm counters![I had to make a reservation for the 2nd bottle]
