If you get a group of pregnant women together, one of the topics that inevitably comes up is stretchmarks and, more specifically, how to prevent them. Whilst a lot of people say there is nothing you can to stop them, I do feel that using good quality products can lessen the severity and, as in my last pregnancy, prevent them completely.
It contains 100% pure plant oils – no mineral oils here unlike some other popular brands - to prevent dehydration, tone and hydrate the skin, and eliminate toxins. It helps to strengthen and firm skin tissue and improve natural elasticity so it is perfect for using during and after pregnancy. It smells fantastic too; with essential oils of rosemary, geranium and mint it is such an uplifting and energising scent and really helps to perk me up when I’m feeling tired in the morning. Massaging it into my tummy feels absolutely lovely, it’s relieves the itchiness that comes as it gets bigger and the oil leaves my skin feeling soft without being greasy so I can pop my clothes on straight away.
The oil costs £39.00 for 100ml although if you shop around online you will find it a few pounds cheaper. Luckily for me my mother-in-law-to-be bought me a bottle for my birthday!
Nice post!
ReplyDeleteI like the 100% pure plant oil of Clarins (body or face actually)...A cheaper alternative would be Weleda. Have your tried?

I did have some samples of Weleda's stretchmark oil but prefer this! xx
DeleteI'm really into oils lately because they do so many good things for my dry skin :)
ReplyDeleteOils are fab, for all skin types! xx
DeleteThis sounds great. I've recently got some stretchmarks and thought I had no option, sounds like I'll need to invest in this little gem!

I'm not sure how good it would be at reducing ones you already have but certainly should help prevent any further ones x
DeleteLucky you! This sounds like an interesting product that we're keen to buy, but the price is a bit of a turn off

Clarins is awesome :) xx
DeleteThanks for recommending this product. Clarins Stretch mark control works for me too. My stretch marks are almost gone but of course I made sure to be hydrated and well nourished when I was pregnant.
ReplyDeleteOf course, you need to take care of yourself from the inside too x
DeleteSounds utterly divine! What a lovely gift <3

It's soooo nice xx
DeleteSounds perfect, I could do with some post-pregnancy too, I never found anything I really loved when pregnant and it never encouraged me to use it. Anything recommended by Caroline is sure to be a winner! xx
ReplyDeleteHehe as soon as she recommended it I placed an order! xx
