Top 5 Body Firming Cream To Try This Summer

Don’t miss out on swimming just because of a little cellulite. You can help firm and tone sagging skin with firming body creams and I found a few that actually work!

I’ve been testing out 5 firming body creams for the past 2-3 months and I’m happy to tell you which ones work (and which ones not so much).

Best Overall Performance

nerium firming body contour cream

Nerium International Firming Body Contour Cream, NeriumADTM is the most expensive one we reviewed BUT it delivered the best results. (Go figure, right?!) Unlike other body creams and lotions, this one nourishes and soothes dry, sun-exposed skin while also providing potent anti-aging ingredients.  Nerium Firming Body Cream is packed with Forskohlii root oil and Caffeine which both work together to help smooth and tighten the skin. The exclusive and patented ingredient, NAE-8TM, helps to firm and tone problem areas.

I chose to use Nerium Firming Body Cream on my belly because after 3 kids, it needed a little help. I used this firming body lotion twice daily, every day on my stomach for the past 2 weeks. I’m not in love with the scent of this one, but the immediate results I experienced made me unconcerned about the light scent that dissipates quickly anyway. Immediately after application my skin literally feels tighter. Not in a dry way either. This body cream is actually very moisturizing, but you do need to really massage it into skin for at least 30 seconds. After a week of using it twice daily I could tell my skin looked different. Two weeks later, I actually felt confident enough to wear a two piece swimsuit to the beach.

Independently conducted clinical trials show:

  • 92% of participants reported positive improvements on their thighs.
  • 92% of participants reported an increase in skin hydration.
  • 83% of participants reported an improvement in the appearance of skin smoothness and cellulite.

Case in point, I definitely recommend Nerium Firming Body Cream because despite the steep price, it actually delivers results and a little goes a long way.  I’ve only been using this one on my stomach for 2 months and I’m only halfway through the tube. I’m sure if you use it on all your trouble areas, you could go through a tube a month. You can save $30 on the price of each tube if you get on auto-delivery, so that is worth considering!

Price: $120 for a 6.7oz tube ($90/tube on auto delivery)

Get It: Nerium.com

Best For Tightening Skin

strivectin tightening

StriVectin-TLโ„ข Tightening Body Cream is ready to tighten up slack skin, no surgery required. This rich and intensely hydrating cream instantly goes to work to tighten skinโ€™s surface and over time actually enhances density too. This multitasking warrior helps your skin retain vital moisture for a visibly firmer, more youthful appearance. This clinically-proven body cream contains a patented NIA-114 molecule that will help strengthen the skin barrier to prevent water loss all while lifting thin, saggy skin giving you visible results in the firmness, tone and texture of your skin.

I chose to use this one on my upper arms for around 8 weeks and was very happy with the results. I have not been doing as many pushups as I would like, so my arms weren’t looking very toned. Thankfully, this body cream made a noticeable difference in the texture and tone of the skin on my arms in just a few weeks. I have to give this one an A+ effectiveness. Since I was reviewing other products on my stomach and thighs, I don’t know how well it will work on the rest of my body. I suspect it will be quite effective though since I got noticeable results using it on my arms for a few weeks. A friend actually said to me, “Oooh your arms are so toned!” when she saw me in a tank top. Winning!

Price: $59 for 6.7oz tube

Get It: StriVectin.com, Ulta, Nordstrom, Amazon.com

Best For “Mom Belly”

If you’ve had a couple kids, you know what “Mom Belly” is and you want to fix it. Oh sure, they tell us to love our new bodies because they are amazing and wonderful and brought her LIFE into the world. Blah blah blah. If you want to help your stomach not look you gave birth to baby elephants, then you need MAร‹LYS Cosmetics B-FLAT.

This is the one product we’ve found that gives you that little lift to help you feel your best no matter if you’re inside or poolside. Not only does it help with stretch mark reduction with active ingredients that help fade stretch marks and prevent more from forming. It also promotes cellulite reduction
dramatically and improves the appearance of cellulite on your belly.

Best of all, B-Flat has fat-burning ingredients like Arabica coffee extract that speeds up the fat-burning processes to tighten up skin so you can look like you used to.

This stellar product also boosts blood circulation with unique plant extracts that stimulate blood flow, encouraging skin rejuvenation. After you apply it, you will feel a tingling sensation for several minutes that lets you know it’s working!

And if all of that wasn’t enough to convince you to try B-Flat, know that you will also see an improvement in your skin’s overall texture thanks to hyaluronic acid that makes skin smoother, younger, and gorgeously supple.

Price: $49 for 3.38oz bottle (1-2/mo supply with twice daily application)

Get It: ULTA.com or Sephora.com

Best Under $50

whish

If you can’t drop a huge chunk of change, that’s ok, you can still get great results with Whish Firming Body Cream.

Known for their use of all-natural and high-performance ingredients, Whish has wowed us again with another phenomenal product. This luscious and super moisturizing body cream is designed to help eliminate the appearance of minor scars, stretch marks, blemishes, and hyperpigmentation while providing a firmer look and feel to your skin. It is made with only all-natural and organic ingredients. It’s not going to do your situps for you, but it will definitely enhance your hard work and make you feel more confident to bare it all on the beach.

I chose to use this one on my hips and love handles for 8 weeks. The scent alone is enough to make me keep using it. It has a light, floral scent that makes it a joy to apply. With this one, I noticed a reduction in stretch marks more than a tightening or toning effect. It seemed to smooth out even deep stretch marks and make my skin tone more even, making them less noticeable. For that alone, this one is a great bang for your buck!

Price: $36 for 5oz bottle

Get It: whishbody.com

Best For Natural Ingredients

Frownies All Natural Cellulite Cream combines 100% pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils with natural caffeine and plankton to help improve the appearance of cellulite on legs, hips, underarms, and belly.

I chose to use this one on my inner thighs and I’m already seeing a difference in the texture of my skin after just two weeks. It looks slightly plumper which makes it appear smoother and less bumpy. Out of all the cellulite / firming body creams and lotions I’ve tried, this is the most natural one that actually delivered noticeable results.

Apply this one twice a day to any areas of concern to firm, tone, smooth and contour the skin. It is recommended to use it for 30 days, twice daily, to see results.

Price: $39.95 for 4oz tube

Get It: frownies.com


I’m no swimsuit model, but I’m not about to let that stop me from getting out there and having fun with my kids! I’ve given birth to 5 KIDS, but I committed to losing the baby weight and getting back into shape every single time. For me! I’m not where I want to be yet, but I’m on my way and I’m thankful for the skincare products that are making me feel better in my own skin during the interim.

Don’t miss out on summer activities. Just go out there and have fun! #YOLO

Products To Help Your
Firming Body Creams Work Better

Any firming body cream or cellulite treatment will be more effective if you are putting it on clean, well-exfoliated skin. Just as you would prep your skin prior to applying a sunless tanner, you should take the same steps before applying firming body creams or cellulite cream.

CLEANSE

beessential body wash

Hop in the shower and get nice and clean. Make sure you get off all the sunscreen, body lotions, and whatever else could be on your skin. My personal favorite is Beessential Grapefruit & Lemongrass All Natural Body Wash that is made with coconut, olive and hemp oils. This stuff is straight up awesome. I get the opportunity to review a lot of different body washes, but I always go back to this one. Gentle enough to wash your sensitive nether regions yet strong enough to remove anti-perspirant deodorant. I’m literally on like my 6th bottle of this stuff and I’ve been using it for years. Highly recommend!

EXFOLIATE

Guinot Gommage Peau d'Orange

After you are sure you’ve gotten your body good and clean, it’s time to exfoliate! Guinotโ€™s Gommage Peau dโ€™Orange is a spa-quality body scrub that is targeted to attack what the French call โ€œorange-peel skinโ€ โ€“ the unattractive condition known as cellulite. Peau d’Orange helps facilitate the absorption of your firming body creams and other cellulite treatments.

Price: $42

Get It: lovelyskin.com and at more than 1,000 Guinot spas in the U.S.

Less Effective Firming Body Creams

I tried several other products that were less effective or produced no visible results at all. Some I would still recommend, some I would not. They are as follows…

Nivea Skin Firming Lotion

nivea skin firming

Nivea Skin Firming Hydration Body Lotion with Q10 Plus has a light scent, goes on greasy but absorbs quickly and overall is a great moisturizer. If you use it consistently, you will notice an overall difference in your skin, but I think the results would only be dramatic for someone that either doesn’t normally apply lotion and has very dry skin or someone who is older (50+) and has crepey skin. I wouldn’t put this one at the top of my list because if you just switch out your normal moisturizer for this one, you probably won’t notice impressive results. However if you normally don’t moisturize or have extremely dry skin, you might like this one. Plus it’s very affordable! Just $10 for a 13.5oz bottle.


bliss FatGirlSlim vs Fabgirl Firm

  • Fabgirl Firm
    New Packaging
  • Bliss Fat Girl Slim
    Old Packaging

Bliss FatGirlSlim, a fan favorite with a cult-like following, but believe me, it’s just because of the name. I recently discovered that in an effort to be “politically correct” they changed the name of their super popular product to “Fabgirl Firm” instead of “FatGirlSlim”. So their once-popular product is now a complete dud. Stupid mistakes in marketing.

I mean, while this is an excellent moisturizer and it smells fantastic, it doesn’t do anything for reducing the appearance of cellulite. Like I said above, if you normally don’t use any moisturizer at all and then start using this twice a day, maybe you will like it and see results. However, if you already pretty good at keeping your skin fairly moisturized, don’t expect miracles.

It used to cost $36 for 6oz, but now that they ruined the product by changing the name, they can’t even give it away at $14 for 5.8 oz. Not only that, you still have to deal with the inconvenience of scooping it out of the jar by hand. Don’t even bother with this stuff.


A Few Others Worth Mentioning…

Belli Stretchmark Minimizing Cream claims to minimize the appearance of stretch marks. While I love a lot of other products from Belli, this one isn’t worth it’s $50 price tag. It smells great, but doesn’t do much for stretch marks.

Jergens Skin Firming Daily Toning Moisturizer smells great and moisturizes just fine, but that’s it. Don’t bother with this over any other moisturizer on the market.

Aveeno Body Moisture Positively Ageless Firming Body Lotion is another one that smells nice and is a great moisturizer, but your money is better spent elsewhere if you are actually looking for results.

Again, if you never moisturize your skin and just woke up one day and was like “Hey, I think I’ll get some cream for reducing the appearance of my stretch marks!” and then start using it faithfully, then yes, you’ll see some results using just about ANY product. The very nature of stretch marks is how they indent into the skin, so obviously if your skin is well hydrated, it will naturally make your stretch marks less noticeable because moisture will make your skin plumper.
