Abstract

A method is provided for the reduction of cellulite by means of loofah exfoliation. A rotatable, handheld loofah applicator device, used in combination with the unique application of a specific sequence of natural components, are applied daily, directly to targeted areas of the body where cellulite is located. This method removes cellulite formed on the skin, resulting in weight reduction and smoother, younger looking skin at the targeted areas of application.
