I have been using this for over 6 months daily. I noticed no change up until about the 5th month, which is sloooow. While my ugly stretch marks are still visible behind my knees, after the 5th month mark they are slightly less visible. Nothing great really. I started using the Clarisonic body brush on the same area and have noticed a better result, my marks are not as indented which is great! I will continue to use this till it runs out. I use about a nickle size for each leg and have a ton left going on my 6th month mark. It has a nice scent to it as well. The consistency is nice, but leaves annoying tacky residue on the opening of the tube if you don't wipe it off (kind of gummy). The closing cap on mine broke, but it still closes just annoying to open now. I will not be buying this again. Going to stick to my clarisonic body brush instead.

I always wanted to try this so I finally broke down and bought it at Target. I have used it for two or three months, rebuying it twice in hopes that it would help if I continued using it. I have some cellulite on my thighs and butt. I work out often, but my cellulite remains. It must be heredity, because i'm small but I still have the dreaded bumps and lumps. :( So I rubbed this on twice daily, and unfortunately, it's all still there! I've honestly had more success with jergens firming lotion.

I've been using this for about 5 months on and off. Honestly, nothing will really get rid of cellulite for good, you need to just work out and massage the area daily to achieve the best results. As for Nivea's product, it leaves my skin smooth and smelling nice. I don't mind using it as an all-over body lotion but it just takes awhile to fully absorb into the skin. I love the fact that it's a cool blue gel, it makes my skin feel dewy. Just wash your hands after applying because it leaves my fingers feeling slippery.
I got a full-size tube at an event so it was free for me. I checked the price of it online and honestly, I would not buy it, especially since it's a drugstore brand, there are other body moisturizers available for under $10. I didn't expect a miracle product, so I wasn't too disappointed with this.

I really like this product. If you mix the gym with this cream works really really good. Even I have noticed, when stopped the use, cellulites appears again.
Definitly I`ll purchase it again.

You know, I was conflicted as to whether or not to buy this product. I had heard some positive reviews, some negative. I figured, why not try it? I can't say that I am happy with the results. I don't feel like the cellulite has been getting better, and I have actually been loosing weight! I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but I would say this didn't really work for me.
However I did read that it works best to use this product with the pill that they have as well. Perhaps it only works if you do both at the same time.

Doesn't do ANYTHING. But i actually bought this thinking that it was for stretch marks for some odd dumb reason. Like when ever i read the word cellulite on the packaging for some reason i would think of stretch marks lol so i cant really comment on the cellulite healing power of this but i can say one thing it doesn't help with stretch marks lol. im such a tard X)

I bought this cream before my vacation and used it twice a day as directed for a month - No result at all! I have pictures from my previous vacation and new and there are no difference. I still use it now and then just because it is very nice moisturizer especially for hot days. The smell is trong but it goes away very fast, very well and fast absorbing and doesnot leave any oilly residue like other body lotions.

They say there is no "cure" for cellulite. And yes, this is true. But there ARE treatments and this is one of them. I am a thin Hispanic girl. But my upper thighs have always shown signs of cellulite under the skin (if I squeeze my leg, or sit a certain way). It runs in my family.
In the last year, I've seen the cellulite coming to the surface and becoming more noticeable. I'm taking immediate action. Ive been massaging my thighs every night. This has kept the cellulite from getting worse and maybe helped it a tiny bit but not much. I starting using this lotion just a week ago and already I feel the skin on my legs is much tighter. It also smells amazing!! I can pour it into a discrete bottle and my fiance thinks im just using a regular girly lotion.
Im not sure how this works, but it doesn't matter how...it just DOES. Im going to keep going at it. I imagine this is one of those "use forever to keep the results" but I'm alright with that because there is no cure for cellulite so I plan on fighting it all of my life. I give this full stars because I saw tighter skin in days and in a week im not noticing my cellulite as much. Im also doing some cardio exercises to help burn fat on my legs. When I feel that my cellulite is practically invisible, I will cut down on my use to two time a week. I hope that will be enough. This stuff isnt exactly cheap.

I gotta say that i really like this product! I have moderate amount of cellulite and i purchased this product after a friend suggested it. I've been using it twice a day for about 12 days and i've noticed major difference on my skin... First of all, it' s signifficantly firmer, softer and most important, i've noticed that 30% of my cellulite has disappeared! I've tried more expensive products(Dior, Estee Lauder, Vichy) and this one is much better and much cheaper(costs like 12 euro). It does worth a try. I'll definately keep using it and i'll post an update after 2-3 weeks to let you know whether or not i've seen further improvement.

It did quite a good job. I didn't have a huge amount of cellulite, but this cream impoved the situation a lot. I could see first results within 3-4 days. I had tried some more expensive options (Vichy, Estee Lauder, Galenic) but Nivea was the best one.

This product seems like such a hit-and-miss deal, if you read through the reviews... Unfortunately, for me it was a miss.
The basics: light blue gel-cream with a soft scent which fades after a while. I spreads nicely, even if it is a bit sticky. There is a need to wait a few minutes before getting dressed.
I used a whole tube, once a day, and I don't see any results. My skin remains as it was. I don't even notice softer skin..!
Maybe I'm just so biased against cellulite creams I don't believe any of them work (which I don't, not on the actual cellulite), but I do believe some make the skin much more hydrated, thus making for smoother-looking skin. Not here, not for me.
Needless to say, I won't be repurchasing.

I don't have much cellulite, but more then enough. I bought this in SA a year ago after I remembered the test they did on "how to look good naked". This one was the winner and one of the cheapest. Don't think I've seen it in Norwegian stores.
The smell is really strong, and the silicone leaves a very nice feeling on the skin. I used it for 3 weeks straight and did notice a difference. Now I'm going to use it again before summer starts.

I've never posted on this site before, despite being a member for a few years but this lotion has impressed me so much, I thought I should spread the word.
I've been looking for an effective anti-cellulite lotion and having heard the wonderful reviews about this product, I still remained skeptical it would work for me but it actually did. I had a moderate amount of cellulite on the front and back of my legs and the cellulite on the front has vanished completely (within a week!) and 80% of the cellulite on the back of my legs has disappeared - that took about 4-5 weeks to see those particular results. Definitely will purchase this again and again, especially as bikini season approaches!

Not the best cellulite lotion I have used. Still it's ok and I will finish the bottle. But nothing special really.

i'm pretty sure this product works unless it's just all the world's great magic powers. okay well, the lotion i think definatley works a lot. i was put on pills for schizophrenia which took me from like 140/50 pounds to almost 300 in like aprox. 2 years so when i stopped taking the pills i knew i shouldn't like loose weight too super quick so my skin can have time to naturally shrink so i don't have too much flab so i decided not to diet or exercize much and just use a bunch of products such as these for my skin. okay well now i'm under 200 and my cellulite and stretch marks are only slightly worse than they were before i gained the weight (when i was 17-20 i went from 115/20 to like 170 then back down to 130/40 range so i had gotten a bit of it bad from gain back then but i never did anything about it x cept palmers for the stretch marks). so i'd have to say this works well cuz if not i think i'd look a lot worse right now. i also take the pills and i'm thinking those are working well also cuz i haven't been dieting much at all like i eat way fatty greasy grainy foods and still been losing weight but i stopped taking the pills for the last few weeks and i stopped losing weight and fat as much. i was also taking diurex water pills 2 tho which i also stopped so now i'm going to just take these nivea pills and see how fast it goes for the next few weeks before i decide if i should bother to keep taking and buying the pills. my google search isn't resulting to well right now so i'm not bothering w/ the medical aspects but i did it already in the past and it seemed to make sense and be workable but of course not being educated as a doctor i wouldn't know for sure.

Almost done the bottle and haven't noticed any difference, used it on my butt and back of my thighs... I was expecting SOME results as I have 20 year old skin and just noticed cellulite beginning...but no results... no firmness even whatsoever.
Does leave the skin silky smooth, and smells great... but so does a regular body lotion.
trying the silhouette one next...

I've used this product for 5 weeks now and noticed very little, if any, improvement. It doesn't bother my sensitive skin and moisturizes well enough but it just doesn't do what it's supposed to, even in conjunction w/the L-Carnitine supplements. Would NOT recommend.

I purchased this product in a 2 pack and have gone through one bottle and am on the second. So far I have not noticed any results. I have been using it on my legs and butt and have not noticed any difference. I do not recommend buying this product.
