The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy of two lipolytic creams differing in their bases and demonstrate that their herbal ingredients can reduce the size of the thigh and smooth the appearance of the thigh skin. It is hypothesized that creams with two different cream bases containing herbal products that stimulate the lipolytic process through stimulation of the beta-adrenergic receptor, with one cream base applied to each thigh daily 5 days a week for 4 weeks will reduce thigh girth and smooth the thigh skin compared to baseline.
Participants will apply one cream (A) to one thigh and the second cream (B) to the other thigh under the supervision of a female clinic staff. The thigh to which each cream will be applied will be selected randomly, but half of the subjects will have cream A on the right thigh and cream B on the opposite thigh while the other half of the subjects will have the sides reversed. To evaluate the primary endpoint, both thighs will be measured at baseline and at the end of each treatment week, and the secondary endpoint will be assessed with standardized pictures of each thigh at baseline and on the last day of the fourth week which will end the study.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Difference in girth of the two thighs from baseline over the course of the treatment period | Creams with two different cream bases containing forskolin, nerium oleander, salicin,caffeine, and green tea extract that have been shown to be safe topically will be evaluated. Both cream bases will be applied to the thighs daily 5 days a week for 4 weeks, with each thigh receiving the same cream base everyday. The thighs will be measured weekly | Four weeks |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Smoothness of the skin on the thighs treated with the two lipolytic creams differing in their bases compared to baseline using standardized photographs at baseline and at the end of the treatment. | The secondary endpoint will be assessed with standardized pictures of each thigh at baseline and on the last day of the fourth week which will end the study. | Four weeks |
