Things you didn't know about Cellulite (and sex, too)

We all know what cellulite is, and RealSelf.com readers recently heard about what causes cellulite from plastic surgeon Daniel Mills. But what if you could uncover how women--real women just like you--felt about cellulite and how cellulite affects their everyday behavior?36% of women won't bare their legs due to cellulite

Nivea recently conducted a study to do just that. Check out some of the findings:

  • 65% said having cellulite is worse than having wrinkles
  • 71% think it's harder to lose cellulite than to lose weight
  • 44% have worn clothing over their bathing suits to hide cellulite
  • 36% refrain from wearing shorts on hot days
  • 20% get intimate less often
  • 69% are self-conscious about their bodies in public due to their cellulite

And one of the most interesting findings is this:

31% admit they'd be more embarrassed to ask someone for advice on minimizing cellulite than consulting friends or family for sex tips.

That right there is one of the very reasons why RealSelf.com exists--it's the place you can go for unbiased and non-judgemental advice on all your skin care questions from professionals and the RealSelf.com reader community
