Cell Roller and Cell Snaps! (47) 
OMFGICAN’TBELIEVEIT’SWEDNESDAY! 
I’m not particularly excited about the weekend, nor am I OK with it being the work week. I dunno what I’m looking forward to! Some mythical place in my mind perhaps? Or maybe I just look forward to the little moments during the day & night when everything’s… well everything’s alriiiiiiiight and a-ooooooooooook!
Like right now 
And of course yesterday when my cosmelandusa goods finally arrived! I ordered a cellulite roller, Calorie Off! socks, and the 2 new 爆汗湯 scents introduced last year!
I ordered these things in a sort of tongue-in-cheek way. I know, they’re basically just diet gimmicks, BUT I LIKE GIMMICKS SOMETIMES! I love sweat baths~ The aroma, the intensity~ it’s great! The Cell roller is in the very least a relaxing muscle massage tool. The socks I’m probably most skeptical about. But they’re no different than those belly sweat bands they sell in the fitness sections here. I haven’t tried the socks yet but WILL let you know my opinion of them when I do!
The cellulite roller I have tried. 
Verdict.
Does it work!?
It does and it doesn’t. … Hahaha. It doesn’t “break up” the cellulite in any way of course, BUT any sort of massage helps relieve underlying swelling and after I used this last night I could seriously tell a difference in my thighs. It had reduced the swelling dramatically. So in essence it does have temporary benefits. Of course when I awoke this morning my legs were plump again. 
Also they warn to be careful of applying too much pressure because it could cause bruising. I thought, “what crazy girl would do such a thing!?” But in reality this roller feels so gentle and relaxing it would be easy to accidentally apply too much pressure. OK, OK, I’ll be honest, I have 2 tiny bruises on my left thigh OK!! HAHAHAAA. But it’s so relaxing & comfortable to use it really is easy to over do it.
I scanned a few pages in from this month’s Popteen. They did a bigger keitai snap section this month. I had so much fun staring at it. Though many of these snaps are on the models’ blogs.

There are so many adorable details! The letter font for the name is so fun! Then the deer~~!! There’s beads and so much contrast felt color that it really POPS! And the stars in the background
:*:Fits my blackberry perfectly too! I really needed something like this
I’ve had some people ask about the NIVEA My Silhouette! Gel-Cream I picked up in late May. I promised to give my thoughts after the recommended 4 weeks of use!
So first, here is their claim:
Proven results:
The regular use of NIVEA My Silhouette! leads to a reduction of up to 3 cm on targeted body parts such as thighs, hips, waist and belly.
- * First slimming results are measurable after already 4 weeks
- * The skin is noticeably better toned and more elastic.
Your silhouette is reshaped.
My opinion?
Well any daily moisturizing is good. And I’ve been dieting so I can’t say how much of my “toning” is the diet & how much is the lotion.
Within the first week this stuff makes your skin so soft. You use it on your “trouble spots” daily. I chose my thighs and also the upper part of my arms. It does tighten the skin and my thighs do look a bit smoother. The lumps have sort of leveled out to just 1 nice pudge/lump which is what I was hoping for at least! Haahaa! Oh and my butt is a tiny bit perkier too where it meets my thigh 
My recommendation? It’s worth buying at least once and seeing if it gives you any results. The true review?
Would I buy this again?
YES
I plan on buying another tube when this one runs out. Plus I really like the scent. I just wouldn’t expect extreme results from this, but it does seem to smooth out skin which is better than pudgy lumps.
I’ve been feeling a bit up then down, up then down lately. So yesterday I lit some incense~~ These cones were a gift from Emm years ago. I’ve used the majority of the bottle up already. The scent is really nostalgic for me now, so I only light them when I’m feeling blue, to cheer myself up! I was SO happy when the scent filled the entire house!! It had never done than in my old apartments despite them being much smaller, haahaa.
