SUMMER IS HERE Summer is here, and to help you feel confident in your summer wear, Herbal Magic is offering a 15% discount on the 8 week Cellulite Treatment. Contrary to popular belief, cellulite is not caused by obesity, and affects individuals of all shapes and sizes.

sive fat accumulation under the skin's surface. Cellulite has also been linked to an inactive lifestyle, unhealthy diet, estrogen and poor circulation. Herbal Magic’s cellulite treatment works to help counteract the cellulite-causing effects of these sources, promoting a firm, even skin tone. The combination of ingredients in Herbal Magic’s Cellu-
lite Treatment enhance the structure and strength of the skin’s connective tissue, facilitating blood circulation and preventing oxidative stress. Herbal Magic’s cellulite treatment is a safe and convenient method of enhancing your skins appearance and tone… from the inside out!
