I have never written a review for anything in my life but I had to for this product. When I was pregnant I thought about which product to use for potential stretch marks and I considered this product which is $7 or so at drug stores for one bottle or the expensive $32 cream at Motherhood Maternity/Pea in Pod. I picked the Palmer's product.
There are 3 types of women. Women that get stretch marks and no cream will ever prevent them or fix them. Women that will never get stretch marks and don't need to use any products. And the third is the most common: women who get stretch marks and this product could work for you. I knew I got stretch marks because I have a few on my hips/thighs/butt. (The type I have are the white kind maybe even light pink anywhere from an inch long to a few inches.) I used this product and I did NOT get a single stretch mark on my stomach, sides, or breasts!!! I was shocked that I didn't get any because I get them so easily on my hips/thighs/butt when I gain weight. I was 40 weeks pregnant and I looked at myself in the mirror and I could not find a single stretch mark anywhere. I just had my baby 3 days ago and there is still not a single stretch mark to be found.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT! (because it could work for you)
How I used this product: As I stated earlier, I started when I got the slightest little bump in the front sometime in the beginning of the second trimester. I applied one pumps worth to my stomach, sides, and sides of breasts after every shower. In the third trimester, I used 2 pumps worth and I applied it every day (I would not skip a day if I didn't take a shower). In the final weeks, I also applied a little bit of lotion when my stomach felt itchy in particular spots, or I applied a little extra if I had eaten a lot that day before going to sleep and felt my stomach was bloated or bulging out more. Throughout the entire pregnancy I used 3 bottles of this product. I believe this particular item on Amazon is a box with 6 bottles so buy it and give half the bottles to a friend!

Palmers Cocoa Butter Scar Serum 1 oz. Review

Palmers Cocoa Butter Scar Serum 1 oz.
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
As a bodybuilder and BMX rider, I was plagued with some rather large and unsightly stretch marks and scars, which gave me a lot of experience in trying different things to remedy them. And I must say, as both a stretch mark and scar treatment, this is a strikingly inadequate product. For less than $9.99, you can get between 4 and 15 oz. of a Palmer's brand Cocoa Butter formula with better ingredients. While Vitamin E and Cocoa butter do help, they will do very little for a product you'll spend so much time rubbing in, and hold out so much hope for.
Your best bet, though more expensive, is to find a product with a "transport" mechanism that will bring the nutrients and moisturizers underneath the skin, where the bulk of the scar is. One example of this is liposomes, found in Body Shape Hydroderm.
And for those combating stretch marks, other very important ingredients are:
1)Collagen and elastin (found in Palmer's Stretch Mark Creams and many lotions for skin, both for under $9.99). Elastin, surprise surprise, lends to you skin being more elastic and resistant to new stretch marks, while collagen helps to "fill up" or restore the empty space left by the dermal tear that causes the mark.
2)Dimethicone (silicone), cocoa butter, jojoba, aloe, or any ingredient with "PEG" in it. These are effective moisturizers of the scar and stretch mark grade.
3)Vitamins A, C, and E. Vitamin C is the best hope among vitamins for restoring scars, but only when mixed with collagen, I would argue. Vitamin E (Tocopheryl Acetate), should slow any progressive scars or marks. Vitamin A is mostly preventative, so you may need it for your lotion, but not for your 2-minute rubbing sessions on scars (be VERY disciplined on these, by the way!).
I used Body Shape Hydroderm, which I think is discontinued, but I would recommend going with Strixaderm-MD 6oz, available on Amazon.com for about 1/3 of the cost of StriVectin-SD, if you really want the scar to go away and your budget will allow it.
Also, if you're using one of these restorative formulas, your best bet is to stack it with a collagen-infused lotion, butter, or rub. If you are looking for an all-over-the-body lotion to use in addition to a scar treatment, the best I've found is Gold Bond Ultimate Healing Skin Therapy Lotion (White bottle with gold trim). It can be found in most drug stores for around $15 for 14 oz. and has Vitamin's A, C, and E, as well as dimethicone, jojoba, aloe, collagen and elastin.
Lastly, if your scar is more than 6 months old, there may be some benefit to be had, but consider seriously whether you will want to burden the costs. A $60 Strixaderm-MD oz. tube lasts 6 months on 9 inches worth of scars or marks (You'll need to go between 3 to 6 months on pretty much any scar, and a full 6 months on pretty much any stretch mark, new or old). If you're dealing with major stretch marks, chances are you've got a more of that to go, so consider whether the stretch marks are worth the cost to you if you're dealing with old ones for which most cheaper cremes are relatively ineffective. Most of all, good luck, and I hope this review has helped!

I bought this product at my sister's recommendation. It didn't seem to do much for my bust but make them smell nice. I did eventually smear some on my chin, just to see..why not?.. and low and behold, no more double chin. SO, i guess my bust is a little to "busty" to see any visible firmness or tightening, but it works for other things. And since people mostly see my chin, and they have commented on how "slim" my face looks, i have to give the product some credit.

This is my first pregnancy and my husband spotted this product at the store when we were hunting for a cream/lotion in the hopes of helping prevent or minimize stretch marks.
I was told time and time again from various people that stretch marks are genetic and if my mother had them (which she unfortunately did get them with both her pregnancies) then I would get them.
In my case, I have yet to get them and I am due in 3 weeks!! :) I started using this oil right at about 2 months and will continue to use it at least 3-6 months after my baby is born for moisturizing and toning the skin.
It works best for me when I apply after I get out of the shower---I apply it all over my breasts and stomach every night after showering.
It's a bit greasy, but that's what oil is and doesn't stain your sleep wear/clothes. So no need to worry!
On another note, my doctor told me it also helps a great deal to NOT scratch your belly and breasts when they itch as the skin stretches. Scratching breaks the fibers in the skin as it's stretching and makes it more prone to stretch marks. I know it's hard, but do all you can to resist the urge to scratch!! :) It's doable! :)
I highly recommend this product!

Okay so I'm twenty years old and ever since I hit puberty I started getting stretch marks in all sorts of places. They always embarassed me and I struggled with them my whole teenage life. When I got older I had gained some weight and got more, but even after I lost the weight I still had stretch marks. This was the first lotion I tried and it really worked. I had put it on in the morning and at night for about a week and already started to see them fade. I don't know if the marks will ever be completely gone, but they have faded enough that I can finally wear a two piece bathing suit without feeling so ugly. I don't know how it works with pregnancy but my stretch marks went from a purple red to light pink in just one week! :)

I lost about 30 pounds recently and had ugly stretch marks all over. Just within 2 days of using this product, I saw a significant difference on my body. I am a black woman with medium skin tone, and my skin rarely responds to all these products. However I was really amazed with this product. The marks faded away in just 2 days, I have now finished the whole bottle and will no doubt buy a 2nd one. Please note that the marks do not go away completely, however their appearance is significantly reduced.

Mama Mio Tummy Rub Butter Body Skin Care Products Review

This is my first pregnancy, and I have been using the Mama Mio Tummy Rub Butter since week 7. When my belly started showing at month 5, I used the Tummy Rub Butter in combination with the Tummy Rub Oil every morning and every night. I am now 8 months pregnant and have no signs of stretchmarks. I guess it's still too early to tell, but it makes my growing belly super soft and cures any itchiness due to stretching.
In terms of how many bottles you'll be using (it is pricey), these small bottles last 4 months (and that's applying liberally every morning and night), so it is a good value. You'll probably only need 3 during your whole pregnancy including post partum when your belly starts shrinking.
*UPDATE*
I gave birth to a 7 lb 4 oz baby girl on the 15th of July. She is now 6 weeks and my stomach has completely shrunk down, and I have absolutely no stretchmarks. This product is amazing and well worth the money!

I've always been a believer in moisturizing my skin, and I was blessed with a great complexion. After taking toxic medication for 1 year, my skin had lost it's luster. My skin tone was uneven, and muddy. I'd used cocoa butter products in the past, and Palmer's had been my favorite. I bought a jar of the cocoa butter formula and used it on my hands and face. Not only do I see an improvement, but I receive compliments on my complexion again. I can see hints of the glow I had when I was 25. The cream may seem heavy, but it's well absorbed, and actually creates a smooth even complexion with regular use. I use it all over now, and look forward to an even better complexion.

I love, love, love this stuff. I've been using it for a couple weeks now, and it makes me feel great. I was most surprised that my hands, which look really old for a 25-year-old, plumped up and de-wrinkled with this oil. And my elbows are smoother than they've ever been! Everything feels great. The only potential downside is the smell- I thought it smelled medicinal at first, and my husband said it smells like baby powder. Now I think it smells like cocoa butter. Definitely not perfumey though! But the smell really doesn't matter, since it absorbs so fast and there's no smell after it's absorbed. Anyway, I use this stuff as after-tanning lotion, after-bath, on my face, hands, elbows, legs, EVERYTHING. Love!

I purchased this last year; I actually purchased the one that is a stick. I loved it so much that I decided to buy the cream. I'm not much into creams really, but this one is so AMAZING!!! I put it all over my body and makes skin feel very smooth and nice. Blemishes were gone as well as scars. And on me, it also prevented future breakouts. I don't mind the stretch marks, and yes, it says those will fade also. Like someone else reviewed, I haven't seen that part yet, but again I don't mind the stretch marks. I'm really concerned about my blemishes and the scars those leave on my skin. Within just some days on some, on some weeks on older ones, the scars faded. The product has a nice sweet smell, but I don't want to smell like candy either. I usually use it at bedtime after I exfoliate, and then, in the morning, skin looks amazing!! I totally love it!! Here's a hint: You can buy this at Walgreens for less, of course, no shipping, and even in a bigger bottle. Mine is 17oz, it costs less than this one, and it lasts for months and I use it all over my body!!! I have used other products, prescribed and over the counter, and none of those gave results that were even near to Palmers. I have noticed that a cheap and GENTLE product like this goes a long way compared to other brands, other products, and even medications. Usually medications are very harsh on the skin and even produce breakouts. I have a very sensitive skin, and this cream is absolutely amazing! Love it!! 5 stars!!! Highly recommend this!!!!

Natural cocoa butter is weird. Every time I get a jar its hard as a rock, some ugly grey color and smells funny. It does not want to melt. But I get it all out of the jar (generally with a screwdriver, I'm a guy, my less brutal female friend puts hers in a hot water bath to loosen it) put it in a double boiler and heat it till its completely melted and clear. Then I pour it in a pan, and, when its set up, prise it out and break it into small pieces. These shards smell more like white chocolate and melt quicky at body temprature. My friend pours her melted cocoa butter into small candy molds (the flexable silicon ones!SiliconeZone Flower Butter Mold, Orange ). She also adds half a vanilla bean when she melts the stuff. Then it smells totally like white chocolate! I do not know why natural cocoa butter needs to be remelted before it becomes useful. Just don't judge it by the way it is in the jar-after being melted and cooled, its a different product entirely
