Belly Oil for Dry Skin | Calendula Skin Care Moisturizer Oil to Encourage Natural Elasticity and Help Prevent Stretch Marks During Pregnancy and Postpartum, 4-Fluid Ounce

Fantastic and great for my sensitive skin. I use this a minimum of 2X per day (morning and night). I use a lot! I put 9 pumps all over the front of my belly and try to get some onto my sides. Then I use about 6-8 more pumps and get my sides good and hips and butt. I usually out another pump or two on my breasts. I then layer it with Earth Mama belly butter. I only need about 2-3 pumps of this because my skin is already covered in the oil. Lastly I rub about a tablespoon of Balm Barr (the white jar with the purple lid) on top, because that was what my mom used. I am 33 weeks and no stretch marks yet. I love the way Earth Mama smells! It smells like orange tree blossoms, but isn’t obnoxiously strong. It’s light and fresh.

This product, used with the Earth Mama Angel Baby Stretch Body Butter helped my wife throughout the pregnancy with skin itchiness and helped prevent stretch marks from appearing. Please keep in mind that is LARGELY depends on genes and your family history on whether or not you will develop stretch marks, but this definately helped my wife. I did alot of research and found this to smell great and work good. It is safer to use than many of the other over the counter items. She used to put this on right before bed, then used the body butter when she got up and when she got home from work. Use the oil liberally and don't be afraid to use on other places of the body. It helped with her itchy skin and left her skin feeling smooth and very nice to the touch. Men, do your wife a favor and surprise her with this stuff here, especially if she hates the smell of the cocoa butter. Plus with the Subscribe and Save option, you save even more! My only gaffe is this isn't really sealed, it just has a piece of tape over the pump to prevent the leaks. Make sure you lay on your side for a while if you put on before bed or it'll rub off.

I purchased this Belly Oil after doing some research and testing other stretch mark oils and lotions. This was definitely my favorite! When you first pump it, it seems overly oily and liquidy, but when you smooth it on your skin - it is awesome! The oil has incredible moisturizing properties and it is nearly scent-free, which is great for pregnant mamas who may be sensitive to smell. I am 26 weeks pregnant and have been using this belly oil since week 12, and I have not had one stretch mark show up! I use it after every shower on my breasts, stomach, hips and upper thighs. It feels very oily as you apply it, but rubs into the skin easily and quickly with a grease-free feel once absorbed. It does not stain clothing, it is safe to use on all areas prone to stretch marks, and it is not tested on animals which is an added bonus. My only “complaint” is that every few uses, I have to wipe the outside of the bottle down because it gets a messy; but honestly, that’s not even a big deal. It’s a great product and definitely works!

It smells good. It’s one of few things I could endure the smell. Although in my second trimester, my belly was itching a lot especially in the evening and no matter how much oil I put it just didn’t help. I dried quickly for me so I keep applying.

Best product for a growing belly. I've had no stretch marks after have 2 babies. I've tried several other oils and creams and butters. This one is by far the best. It actually absorbs into the skin so the moister is good and deep in the layers of skin. The smell is mild and pleasant. No skin irritants in the oil at all. I find that all oils work best after a shower. The pores of the skin are open and take in the oil better. I made the mistake on only using this oil on my belly during my second pregnancy. I ended up with some stretch marks on my inner and outer thighs. For my first pregnancy I used this oil from my knees to my chest and I didn't get a single strength mark. I gained less weight the second time around. So I know this product really works when you are faithful in applying it after every shower which for me is pretty much every day.

My doctor recommended due to some medical research to not use cocoa butter on my belly during pregnancy. It was really hard to find a stretch mark belly oil/lotion that didn’t have any cocoa butter but this one doesn’t have any cocoa butter and has great ingredients! It has a faint orange scent to it that isn’t overpowering. I apply the belly oil first then follow with the accompanying lotion throughout my second and third trimester and so far no stretch marks! The oil does take a minute to absorb so I normally wait a couple minutes before applying the lotion and putting on clothes but doesn’t leave me feeling oily at all! 10/10 would recommend!

I purchased this item for my wife during her 2nd trimester of pregnancy. She started to get some stretch marks on her stomach and was very unhappy about it. After buying this product, I did some research and learned on various pregnancy/medical websites that there's no way to fully prevent stretch marks. Statistically, stretch marks affects 50% of pregnant women. With that said, stretch marks occur when the elastic fibers under your skin break. Factors that affect whether or not you'll get stretch marks involve the following: 1. Genetics 2. Rapid weight gain 3. Multiples (twins, triplets, etc) 4. The baby is "big" 5. Excess amniotic fluid Unfortunately, this product didn't prevent stretch marks despite my wife using it almost everyday (there were times when she forgot). ***HOWEVER***, I can and will attest that the use of this product did seem to diminish the appearance of the stretchmarks over time. I know this isn't the same type of product, but a good example of what I saw was occurring on my wife was when you use Mederma on scars. I know you can use Mederma on stretch marks, but the whole point of me buying this was to moisturize my wife's skin and prevent it from being itchy. Well it seems to be good, as my wife's skin is always soft, even hours after putting it on. What I especially like is that it doesn't make you feel greasy AND the scent is very nice. Reminds me of one of those "sleepytime sprays" you'd spray on your pilow that Bath & Body Works used to sell.

Great product and we gifted it to a family member - she loved it and uses it for her pregnancy.

I bought this oil as I was feeling pains and discomfort from the skin around my tummy stretching during my 2nd trimester. It was more for that, and for simply relaxing and connecting with myself, that I bought it for, as I'm not sure anything can prevent stretch marks, plus I'm not as concerned about those as my discomfort. I'm not sure why but the label led me to not have too high expectations of this oil! Anyway! I love this oil for 3 main reasons: (1) It has a really lovely emollient, rich texture to it, which also means that it really goes far but isn't sticky, and also makes a generally great massage oil, whether pregnant or not! (2) It smells really nice, in a subtle way, of course; (3) The container is really good, with an effective pump spray that does not leave oil around the sides of the bottle. Unusually, the side of the bottle has remained dry, unlike other massage oil and facial serum oil bottles I have had! I use this regularly and it doesn't feel like a chore because I find it very comforting for bump and my swollen hands and legs. A high recommend from me!

Ich hab das Produkt bekommen und das Ablaufdatum war von vor einem Jahr...ich konnte es nicht nutzen. Deshalb nur 1 stern

If you are pregnant you need this .It is the best your baby body .

Perfect for use after showering on wet skin. I have used this after showering/bathing for most of my pregnancy. So far I have no stretch marks (baby due in a week or so) - who knows if it's due to the oil or just genetics/diet/good luck. I do know that it has kept my skin well moisturised. I have also used this oil for massage and as a shaving oil - all round great product! Smells nice too :-)
