Addicted and Stretch Mark Oil from This Works - simply WORKS!!

Advantages: smells and feels expensive- ultra absorbing
Disadvantages: pricey but worth it!

...Every so often you come across a product which just makes you stop in your tracks. This one made me and WOW - I LOVE IT. A friend introduced me to Stretch Mark Oil as an all over body lotion versus just a solution for the dreaded SM's !!! Coming up to summer, we buff and polish and prep our skin trying to make the best of the English weather and quite frankly I would be lost without this little gem now. Dont let the price put you off - comparing ml for ml its as good as many out there and i prefered it to plain Cocoa Butter and Bio Oil. It has made some of my stretch marks finer and improved my skin on my arms, chest and legs -its now my gift of choice for friends who are having babies!! I found mine at John Lewis but now having looked into it the brand has its own website and its sold on lots of other websites too. I will be...

Review of This Works Stretch Mark Oil

Decleor Firming Stretch Mark Cream

Advantages: Makes skin feel soft and smooth
Disadvantages: Haven't really seen the desired effect!

...I really like the Decleor range and when I saw this product I really wanted to try it to see if it really did what it said on the tube 'Firming Stretch Mark Cream'. The design of the tube is simple and attractive. Like a lot of other Decleor products it comes in a nice yellow colour. It has 'Decleor' written at the top of the tube and then the product name in French, and then its translation in to English. It comes with a yellow screw top lid so it is easy to squeeze the lotion out of the tube. The cream has a good 12 month shelf life once it has been opened, and if you use it everyday it shouldn't be a problem using it up in this amount of time! The Decleor line isn't that available on the high street, although I know John Lewis stocks it. It is quite widely available on line and Decleor have their own UK website, and amazon...

RODIAL STRETCH MARK ERASER REVIEW

Advantages: it actually works
Disadvantages: might run out a little fast -

...Before buying this cream, i searched and searched the web for a review and couldnt find any, so i took the risk and bough the cream and thought i HAD to write a reveiw. A little background: I had one baby (boy) 20 months ago and i was COVERED in stretchmark and gained 4 stone, after giving birth the strechmarks were red and angry looking and on the bottom part of my belly, where the womb was - so after losing the weight - the stretch makrs looks wrinkley and hence made the belly look like it has loose skin when inface it didnt. I used bio oil every day of the pregnancy and its rubbish, didnt do a thing, wish id discivered this product back then. This is an oil and is FANTASTIC is has collagen which pumps the stretch marks and makes them less 'deep' hence filling them in more so they look better dont expect miracles,no cream does this...

Review of Rodial Stretch Mark Eraser

Remove those stretch marks............please!

Advantages: sin appears tighter and firmer, stretch marks faded
Disadvantages: a little expensive.

...I have used numerous creams to try and eleviate my stretch marks see previous op. and I have off and on been using palmer?s cocoa butter but I never keep up with the daily routine and the smell was making me feel sickly. Now I have just started selling Avon and have previously begun to try out their products for research purposes of course! Anyway I saw the re-fine stretch mark smoother in the catalogue and thought I would give it a whirl. Avon claim that this product is a clever formulation that visibly re-texturizes the skin to minimise the look of stretch marks. Skin also feels smoother and silkier to the touch, from the moment you apply it. Well let?s see than shall we? The packaging I won?t harp on here but it comes in a very expensive looking lilac tube with a purple flip top lid for ease of use. The product...

Review of Avon Re-fine Stretch Mark Smoother

coconutty way to keep stretch marks at bay!

Advantages: prevent and reduces stretch marks, nice smell
Disadvantages: slightly greasy

...I first found out I was pregnant in September 2005 - I am now 39 weeks pregnant and with the babys birth looming and nothing to do whilst on maternity leave I thought I may as well review a few of the products which I have used and found to be useful during my pregnancy.... so here goes.... I am reviewing the Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Massage Cream for Stretch Marks It comes in a tube of 125mg which is boxed. the box is white and shows a picture of an expectant mother. (the tube inside is decorated exactly the same!) It is quite plain packaging with brown writing. On the back it has the usual information, ingredients etc. When I opened the tube and squeezed a small amount out there was a lovely slight aroma of coconuts! It smells delicious!! The massage cream is white and while the packaging claims that it is non...

Review of Palmers Massage Cream for Stretch Marks

Palmers Cocoa Butter Massage lotion keeps stretch marks at bay!

Advantages: Keeps Stretch Marks Away!
Disadvantages: none!

...I purchased Palmers Cocoa Butter Massage lotion for Stretch Marks in two packs from Target in my fifth month of pregnancy. I was just shopping around in the Target store in the area where the lotions could be found and walked over to the cremes for stretch mark prevention. I picked up the Cocoa butter massage cream and to my surpise I found a two dollar off coupon and decided okay why not give this a try for only three dollars now that I had the coupon. That night before I went to bed that night I took a shower to help open up my pores. I then flipped open the solid white cap and squeezed the 4.4 oz tube and applied two moderately thick quater sized drops and right away I could smell the wonderful chocolately scnet that every pregnant woman loves. After taking in the heavenly scent of chocolate I rubbed the cream all over my belly...

Review of Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Massage Lotion for Stretch Marks

Get rid of those yucky marks

Advantages: Moisturises, no stretch marks yet
Disadvantages: Don't like the smell

...Ahh, stretch marks. There's nothing pleasant about them, they're ugly, unsightly and anything I can do to prevent them will be most welcome. That is why I purchased a bottle of Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula for Stretch Marks. I bought this because I've known of this brand for a very long time and it seems to be a well trusted, widely used product so I was excited to try it. The bottle I bought seemed to definitely be for pregnant women as there is a drawing of a image of a pregnant woman on the front although I assume you could use this product even if you weren't pregnant to use on existing stretch marks as it says on the bottle that is helps reduce the appearance of stretch marks. THis lotion is classified as a massage lotion that can be used all over the body. It is clinically and dermatologically tested and includes Vitamin E...

Review of Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Massage Lotion for Stretch Marks

Don't bother stretching the pennies for this!

Advantages: Comes in handy pump action bottle.
Disadvantages: Doesn't have the same smell as the origional Cocoa Butter.

...I realised the other night that i'd nearly come to the end of a bottle of a product that i was trying for the frist time, and had not yet written a review about on Ciao! Well, i thought i should immediately set to work writing a review so that you could all benefit from my impression of the product. So, what product is it? Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Massage Lotion for Stretch Marks, of course! ***THE COMPANY*** Palmer’s is a brand owned by E.T. Browne Drug Co., Inc (E.T. Browne (U.K) Ltd). On the back of the bottle is says that Palmer’s does not manufacture store brands, so I’m guessing it means that the only brand E.T Browne Drug Co., Inc manufacture is Palmer’s various ranges, and Palmer’s only manufacture their various ranges, no others. Anyway, on the bottle is says to go to www...

Review of Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Massage Lotion for Stretch Marks

Happy stretching

Advantages: Looks, makes you stand out.
Disadvantages: Smells bad if you don't keep them clean

...Right, first of all, what is it? Well, stretching a piercing can be used on some but not all piercings, Ears, lips and nose piercings are the most popular to stretch and ears are the most popular out of those three. Some piercings just shouldn't be stretched; Genital and nipple piercings spring to mind! When stretching a piercing there are a couple different ways. You can either do it by adding more normal earrings and tugging on them. This is rarely used now or the obvious reason that it looks kinda strange and you could just pull through your lobe. The other option is to use tapers, such as the metal spike in the photo. Not only do these look better but also they let you stretch in gradual steps. These metal tapers come in various sizes, the minimum is 2mm and although there is no maximum, most shops only stock up to 20mm stretchers...

Review of Members Advice On Ear Stretching

Re-Fine Stretch Mark Smoother does really work

Advantages: Fades stretch marks and skins feels less 'grooved' and more smoother
Disadvantages: Cost

...When I first saw the advertisement in the Avon booklet for Re-Fine Stretch Mark Smoother I thought 'yeah right!'. I had just had a baby and thought that it was a big con like all the advertised cellulite creams and at £10 a tube I wasn't going to risk wasting valuable money. It wasn't until it was on buy one get one free that I thought 'mm I think I'll give it a go', and it was advertised that if I wasn't completely satisfied that I could get my money back so I thought I couldn't really lose. The advertisement boasts 'See results in just two weeks!' and provided you do use it once a day every day you do see results - amazing results. I started using it two months after having my daughter and it really started to fade the stretch marks much faster than they would have done without I'm sure. My skin is smoother and you can't actually...
