Cellu-Shape – At A Glance

Timewise Cellu-Shape Contouring System, a two-product cellulite reduction regimen formulated, produced and manufactured by Mary Katy Cosmetics, a multi-million dollar leader in both skincare products and supporting entrepreneurial endeavors for women. The founder of Mary Kay Cosmetics, while not a skincare specialist herself, has established an empire of scientists who consult with dermatologists and medical experts, and has devoted millions of dollars to quality, safety and performance testing of products and has established a U.S. plant that is recognized as an FDA registered drug manufacturer; a distinction that very few cosmetics manufacturers can claim.

As a cellulite reducing product, Cellu-Shape relies on a two-pronged approach to reduce the appearance of cellulite-featuring a daytime body moisturizer and a nighttime body gel. While there are few details regarding the composition of the elements in the contouring system, extensive information is available supporting the Mary Kay reputation for quality with a focus on both the user of the products and the Beauty Consultant sellers of Mary Kay products.

Cellu-Shape – Facts

Cellu-Shape

Mary Kays TimeWise Cellu-Shape Contouring System features two clinically tested formulations. The Daytime Body Moisturizer is designed to stimulate cellular activity, increase hydration and begin the firming and toning process. TimeWiseCellu-Shape Nighttime Body Gel is formulated to complete the firming process and strengthen the skin’s support system to minimize the visible signs of cellulite. The products’ claims of less visible cellulite and lose of up to ½ inch on each thigh are supported by a dermatologist’s review of a 12-week study at an independent laboratory.

No list of any product ingredients seem to be offered on the manufacturer’s website.

Cellu-Shape – Positive Features

  • Mary Kay is a well-established skincare industry organization.
  • Product can be purchased through a Mary Kay Beauty Consultant, provided through the website and conducted either via telephone or email contact.
  • Products are affordable, with the featured two-product contouring system selling for $55.
  • Easy to apply.
  • No animal testing.

Cellu-Shape – Negative Features

  • No product ingredient information is given.
  • No free product sample is offered.
  • Large number of products available from Mary Kay make it difficult to determine if sufficient focus has been placed on the problem of cellulite.

Cellu-Shape – Conclusion

Given the name recognition, reputation and research and development dollars of the Mary Kay Cosmetics empire, it would seem that the Cellu-Shape Contouring System should be an unbeatable cellulite reducing product. It may very well be, but unfortunately, the company does little to inform the user about what makes up the “powerful mix of ingredients”, or how and why they achieve what they are reported to achieve. Even so,Cellu-Shape is not overly expensive and fans of the Mary Kay line of cosmetics may feel confident to give it a try.

Not all cellulite treatments are created equally, and it is important to evaluate the potential of a product prior to purchasing it. A quality cellulite treatment must be formulated from compounds that are capable of actually penetrating deep enough into layers of skin to deliver the active ingredients to the cells that they need to affect in order to create noticeable results. Additionally, the stated active compounds should actually be capable of reducing cellulite; such ingredients should be able to minimize pockets of fat, which should in turn reduce the appearance of cellulite. Finally, a cellulite cream's ingredients must all be of the highest quality and should contain compounds that can work to tighten and smooth skin in order to combat the drying effect of cellulite. Below you'll find some of the top cellulite creams, as well as ratings evaluating how well each of these creams meets these standards of quality.
