Most gift givers have nothing but good intentions in mind when choosing gifts for their loved ones. Unfortunately, and mainly due to their inherent nature, some gifts can come off as unintentionally insulting. Here are 10 beauty items you might want to think twice about — or put on your list for the ultimate passive-aggressive frenemy gift.
What's your take on the bevy of anticellulite creams available? I contend that none of them work, but recently Jessanne reviewed Nivea Good-Bye Cellulite Gel ($10). Did she love it or hate it? Read below to find out.
After a couple of months of use, I saw zero improvement in the skin texture around my buttocks and thighs. A couple of years ago I used Dove cellulite lotion and saw much better results. This Nivea brand has a funny smell and did not seem to moisturize my skin. Sorry, Nivea.

Most women have cellulite, but FitSugar says there's basically nothing you can do to get rid of it. Deep down, I know it's not really a big deal, so I usually just let it go. That doesn't mean I have to love it, though, which is why I decided to try Bliss FatGirlSlim ($29). I read some reviews claiming that it worked, so I figured, why not.
Like many other cellulite-fighting creams, FatGirlSlim's main dimple-fighting ingredient is caffeine. Topically applied caffeine is said to burn fat on a cellular level just below the skin's surface, causing fat cells to shrink. Scientists seem to think this logic is a stretch, but I decided to see what happened after a few weeks' use.
