I used this and I never got stretch marks but I think that's more genetics than anything. BUT it really did help with the itching as belly grew (Oct 08, 2014)

Maybe I am just not a fan of the cocoa butter smell? It’s too overpowering for me, personally. I find this too greasy leaving finger prints everywhere on everything! It is very affordable though. Sep 03, 2021

This was alright. It didn’t make me feel very greasy, but I didn’t love the product either. Ended up getting a burts bees product that I liked better. Jan 19, 2020

I just cannot with the chocolate smell. Had to use for tattoo healing and couldn’t stick with it much longer than that. Their line for stretch mark prevention has a much lighter and tolerable scent. Jul 27, 2019
