Belli Elasticity Belly Oil - Stretch Mark Protection for Smooth, Healthy Skin - OB/GYN and Dermatologist Recommended - 3.8 oz.

I am giving 1 star because of the packing. The oil itself is really good, the smell is great (although it’s a personal taste), but the packing.. oh Lord, it’s such a poor quality. If one single time you decide to close the bottle and put it back on the shelf right after applying the product, the packing gets slippery forever. It’s so sad that such great oil comes in a bad quality packing, with so many resistant materials out there.. If it accidentally falls on the floor: forget it - it will break. :/

A good product

I got this product after hearing the co-founder on the podcast Pregtastic. He explained that three of the ingredients in this product had some scientific basis in reducing stretch marks or the extent of them and I was pretty compelled by his explanation of each of those components. So I gave this a go! Now, my mom had stretch marks pretty badly with her kids every time. They say that genetics is a big factor and that if your mom gets stretch marks, you are likely to. So I was really expecting to see them leading up to my due date. I ended up delivering my baby just a few days before my due date and- to my surprise- ended up without a single stretch mark. I was so doubtful of this product that I kept looking for any sign of marks. I really didn't expect to finish my pregnancy without them, and in this weird way, I kind of feel a little bit sad I didn't get just one as a pregnancy token. I really can't say for certain that this oil "prevented" stretch marks, but it was nice to use and I'm sure it didn't hurt. Now onto the oil itself- it smells wonderful and felt great to rub on my belly and hips as part of my nightly routine. As I rubbed it on I felt like I was giving myself and my baby a soothing massage. I didn't ever have dry belly skin so can't comment on whether it helps with that, but I bet it would- it's an oil so it locks in moisture. I used 1-2 pumps starting in month 2 of my pregnancy, and had to increase to 3 by the end. I ran out at about the 7 month mark and decided to go ahead and get the second bottle and use super liberally through the rest of the pregnancy. I ultimately used about 1 1/2 bottles. If I was disappointed with anything, it's the price- it's a very expensive product. That said, I liked using it and it was my treat to myself throughout the pregnancy. And hey, no stretch marks. Again, not sure if that is really because of the product or because of my luck (I had an amaaaaaazing pregnancy and birth).

I use this product every night ! Almost 8 months pregnant and no sign of stench marks yet.

This is hands down the best oil I’ve used on my pregnant belly. It absorbs in the skin fast and leaves you feeling moisturized all day.
