Svelte Pro's Sweetsation Organic Anti-Cellulite Treatment: A Review

Recently, I posted a review about a certain kind of cellulite cream. In this review, I posted alllll about cellulite- what it is, what it does, what works, what doesn't. I didn't have the best of luck with the cellulite treatment I reviewed in that post, although the ingredients did seem somewhat promising.

Svelte Pro sent me a bottle of their own organic anti-cellulite treatment and, unfortunately, I can't say I like this one any more. In fact, I dislike this one more, because it has this awful, citrusy-ish smell that reminds me of, well, cleaner??? It definitely doesn't remind me of anything "organic," as the company claims that it has in their product. 

Here's what the company claims their product does: 


"Loving the "lazy way" to reduce cellulite we have designed Svelte Pro Supercharged Anti-Cellulite treatment incorporating phosphodiesterase inhibitors or simply the entire array of known flub busters. In plain simple language, they stop production of the enzyme that leads to fat storage in our body and so cause the dimples to shrink. Many ingredients have this effect including, Caffeine, Kola nut and Juniper. Along side these are ingredients like, Butcher's broom which helps dilate blood vessels increasing circulation in the area- Gingko Biloba which is said to firm the skin and Lemon and Fennel which helps detox the body and repair skin. L'Carnitine, the latest break through in cellulite battle - is found naturally in the skin and supports the conversion of fat into energy. (see more details on ingredients below). Formulated to work both on the surface and in depth, this revolutionary treatment has multiple performance that can be seen with the naked eye within 3-4 weeks. Firming on the surface, detoxifying on the inside, reducing water retention and fat cell clusters, while improving circulation and overall appearance of the skin. Even though we like the "lazy" way to reduce cellulite, for best and quickest results we still suggest to adopt sensible diet and regular exercise. Directions: Apply in circular motions twice a day, on all affected areas, specially on thighs, buttocks, stomach - to help to reduce the appearance of cellulite. (Preferably two hours after eating or one hour before meal. Your body will only burn fat when it has none in the bloodstream.) This product creates slight "sauna" effect that may cause you to sweat more on the areas where the product was applied. Warning: Use only as directed. Do not ingest. Keep out of reach of children. Due to diuretic effect this product may cause, we do not recommend this product for use while pregnant."

I hate when water is the first ingredient, because it always makes me wonder whether the product is super watered down. It's quite the long list of ingredients, but they don't seem to be all fillers, either, I'll give them that. For example, one of the ingredients the company likes to boast about in this product is caffeine,

All in all, the ingredients may be unique and fluffy-sounding and intriguing, to say the least, but after using this product for a week and counting, the only difference I noticed was that my legs were.. smoother. More hydrated. You know. A total bummer, because I am reallyyyyyy  hoping that a topical treatment out there really does exist to treat cellulite effectively.

Plus, that smell. Ugh. I can't. 

Intrigued? You can purchase this product on amazon for $22 plus $3.25 shopping. That's a total of $25.25, for you math whizzes out there.
