Where I got it: I bought this from my local Life Pharmacy for $29.99. You can find Weleda products from leading pharmacies and health stores like Health 2000.
What I got: This is a 100ml bottle of Weleda Stretch Mark Massage Oil. Comes in a glass bottle with a white plastic screw cap. Stretch Mark Massage Oil (formerly Pregnancy Body Oil) contains gentle almond oil and vitamin E enriched wheat germ oil, along with Biodynamic® arnica extract, which help keep the skin, particularly in the stomach and abdomen areas, elastic and firm. This oil smooths the skin, avoiding the development of stretch marks on the stomach, thighs, bottom and breasts through regular massage. Dermatologically tested, the pure and natural formula nourishes the skin, protecting it from dryness.
Ingredients: Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Germ Oil, Fragrance (Parfum)*, Arnica Montana Flower Extract, Limonene*, Linalool*, Citronellol*, Geraniol*, Citral*, Eugenol*, Farnesol*
Weleda Stretch Mark Massage Oil
How I find it: First of all packaging in this glass bottle, you need to be careful with slippery hands that it doesn’t drop and shatter. With dry hands, the cap is easy to open and I use a good amount for my tummy, thighs, buttocks and bust area. Just apply with a circular motion and work the oil in. It smells very pleasant so it is very enjoyable to use.
Overall: For my last pregnancy, I have tried Bio Oil, Palmer’s Stretch Marks Cream and a handful of other stretch marks oil, which all worked really well but I missed applying onto my thighs, therefore, I had some stretch marks there. With consistent moisturising and massage, they have pretty much all faded. I have started to apply this to my bust as well because I can definitely feel that it is getting bigger which didn’t happen with my first pregnancy. Really hope that I don’t get stretch marks on my chest area! This oil leaves you feeling very moisturised to the point that it can feel a little greasy on the skin. So do not apply too much, just enough to do a gentle massage is good. I apply this during the day and by the time I take a shower at night, I can still feel it on my skin!
