Hello Gurls... I am very happy to inform you all about the launch of new series related to pregnancy here in World Of Women Blog..Which will be helpful to all of us at somepoint of our life....I am in my Third trimester of pregnancy, so I thought I could share a few things which I am going through...so that might be helpful for somebody out there :)
There is a saying " Nothing is greater than Motherhood"
"Whether your pregnancy was meticulously planned, medically coaxed, or happened by surprise, one thing is certain -- your life will never be the same "
Aren't these quotes true ?
To make thing easy also I want this series to be a ready reckoner that provides various things which are quite important..be it the food,exercise,makeup,skincare,how to dressup during pregnancy and different products will be discussed here by me and other lovely bloggers who will be doing the guest posts shortly ...
Also I will try to link some of the relevant products reviewed by other bloggers for your convenience :)
Please help me with your suggestions, opinions and queries regarding this series :)
So look out for more in this space...
To begin with I will review something that's quite useful :)
Here it goes :
We all know Stretchmarks are synonymous with pregnancy....with growing baby in the tummy..stretchmarks do stretch from north to south and east to west giving us permanent stripes and checks ....
I am no exception...already a well fed child so had slight stretch marks in my hands even before my pregnancy.....
I was looking out for a product when I was in 4th to 5th month ...
Actually my dear hubby saw this during one of our groceries shopping and immediately got me :)
Ok it comes in an attractive outer pink box(which i threw away) ..which says like start using it from your fifth month onwards...
Product Claim, Directions and Ingredients
Comes with the Flip cap
Oil Swatch
See how light is the oil
Pros:
I apply this oil every night and seriously this oil is super light
Not at all greasy and absorbs into the skin within minutes
Smells really good
It does lighten stretch marks and has prevented the future ones to some extent
Skin feels soft and supple
Travel friendly packaging
Moisturises the skin really well
one bottle lasts for about 2 months but depends person to person
contains all lovely oils :)
Cons :
price is little steep for 100ml
Doesn't lighten very old stretch marks...anyways it dint claim that it lightens...it says prevents
Overall i can say I am very happy with this product
All mommies...do give this a try :)
Love,
Varshini

Hmm, me never bothered about getting products for strech marks. Dont know why, must be my hormones. Dint care about my look or anything while I was pregnant. But luckily, I have very few marks others have started to fade away :)
ReplyDeleteGood review. Will help others :)
Thanku indu :)
DeleteOh so lucky you are indu....
Me have light marks only but prevention is better na :)
I am using this Oriflame perfect body cream.. it worked well for me :) nice review Varshini :)
ReplyDeleteWow rekha..can you review it :) me buying soon ..thanks :)
DeleteYou know I applied body shop cocoa butter cream daily during my pregnancy and till my last month I didn't get any stretch marks.. I was soo happy.. But suddenly in the last 2 weeks sooo many stretch marks appeared when the baby moved down.. Sigh.. Sometimes we can't prevent it at all.. But now it's been 6 months and i can say the best thing that works to remove the pigmentation and stretch marks is gingerly oil. Seriously. Massage with warm gingerly oil all over your stomach before bath and watch them disappear.
ReplyDeletenitya i just got 1 palmer's cocoa butter ..yet to use it...
Deleteseriously the gingelly oil trick am gonna start :)
thanx a lot :)
