The facts on stretch marks!

Pregnancy can also bring unexpected bodily changes. You may start to notice red or purplish streaks forming on your body, most commonly on your belly and breasts. They are a sign that the skin is stretching to accommodate and nurture the life growing inside. Photographs of pregnant women in the media typically present images of women whose skin is blemish-free. But the true picture is that up to 90% of women will have some stretch marks as a result of pregnancy.

It sounds scary and the real thing is even scarier (U can view it here: stretch marks gallery). TIDAK!! i dont want to live my whole life with a permanent stretch marks!! i can bear with the operation scars yg spt c-sec (cuz it's waaay below, and one can still wear super super low jeans without the scar in sight) BUT u cant hide stretch marks. How am i ever going to feel sexy again if i hv stretch marks? Scary ok. Other things like linea nigra, spider veins, mask of pregnancy or even acne, semua itu adalah temporary but not this one.


What did i use to prevent stretch marks during pregnancy?

I used 2 products: Bio Oil and Natural Stretch Oil from Earth Mama Angel Baby twice daily.

First, i used Bio oil for my op scar. The oil absorbs easily, the smell is so-so to me, eventho my sister claimed that the smell is nice. Well, all i can say is it doesnt smell like oil, so i can tolerate it. This product is good for the skin, not only it helps to prevent stretch marks, but also scars, uneven skin tone, ageing skin, and dehydrated skin.

Second, i rubbed and massaged the Natural Stretch Oil all over my body. It is a herb-infused oil that feels so light, no sticky feeling and absorbs quickly on application. The best thing is..with this oil, i smell nice and i feel soooo good as it has a sweet smell and calming effect. So, for expectant mommies i really2 recommend this product from Earth Mama Angel Baby. It's a 2 thumbs up for the soothing smell and let's hope the oil really prevents stretch marks as they claimed. Am certainly going to get more products from Earth Mama Angel Baby for me and my lil one as it use the highest quality oils and QAI certified organic herbs. Furthermore, the products are cruelty-free, certified vegan, kosher, and 100% toxin-free !!
