Everyone in some way, is a little self-conscious. Our mood and confidence in public is largely influenced by how we look and how we feel about it.

Thus, the need for this article where I share with you the best yoga pants for cellulite.
MUST READ: Curious About Face Yoga? Here’s Everything You Need to Know
Now, there’s a difference between ‘the best yoga pants’ and ‘the best yoga pants for cellulite’. I find that many articles give recommendations, maybe to get some commission without caring about which is the most beneficial to you, and yes, some of these recommendations are not best for cellulite. There are certain things you must look out for and once you know them, no one will be able to trick you into buying what doesn’t suit your purpose. Therefore, this article will not just focus on hiding cellulite but on ridding them.
So, what should you look out for when finding the best yoga pants for cellulite? Basically, the ideal best yoga pants for cellulite should have the following properties in no particular order:
- Quality – irrespective of brand, go for great quality. Sometimes, price determines quality and sometimes it doesn’t. I’d advise you to physically visit a store to choose a great quality instead of buying online (unless the online store is trusted and/or you’ve tried the product before and sure that the quality is great). The best yoga pants for cellulite should be able to stretch without tear or wear – that’s how you know it’s of great quality.
- Fabric – fabric is like the most important consideration in choosing the best yoga pants for cellulite. Ideally, the fabric should be firm, breathable and should withstand stretching while holding its form. Although your yoga pants should feel thin and light, it shouldn’t be thin and light (unless it holds a very firm form), so, avoid yoga pants that are light and that has a loose form. My best advice is that you go for yoga pants with sauna properties. Thermal yoga pants heat up your skin and break down cellulite cells which will help banish all your cellulite in time.
More so, you should aim for ‘compression’, as this will put pressure on your skin which will increase blood flow and prevent new cellulite from forming. Compressed yoga pants will also tighten, firm and smoothen your skin while shaping your butt. My best advice is that you aim for ‘thermal’ spandex yoga pants – this will provide the adequate amount of stretch, compression and heat. You can also try polyamide fabric. These fabrics are used in making some of the best yoga pants for cellulite.
- Features – there are features you should look out for while selecting the best yoga pants for cellulite. First, a high waist yoga pants which will offer full coverage and compression and will equally hide and rid cellulite around your waist and lower abdomen. Second, pick appropriate colors for yoga pants and avoid see-through, unless it’s see-through patterned as part of the design, such as the ‘Yoggir Spiral Mesh Capri Pants for Yoga’. More so, multi-patterned or flowered yoga pants create a distraction that will hide your cellulite. Third, there’s nothing wrong in going crazy with different yoga pants styles to feel more confident. For length, go for ¾ length, knee length or full length for a different look each day.
- Fitting – comfort and fitting go hand in hand in selecting the best yoga pants for cellulite. You should avoid tight and loose yoga pants – that’s why I always advice buying from a physical store instead of buying online, unless you’re absolutely sure it’s your ‘glove-fit’. Nothing makes your yoga pants work best in hiding your cellulite than when it completely fits your form, so always endeavor to try some on in the changing room before buying to ensure they fit perfectly. Important thing to note is to completely avoid free-fitted yoga pants, especially ones with boot-cut. They are advertised as one of the best yoga pants for cellulite but they don’t effectively hide your cellulite because while performing yoga poses, they get in your way. More so, they definitely won’t help at all in banishing cellulite so why bother?
