Natural Belly Balm for Pregnancy with Magnesium Oil, Aloe Vera, Jojoba Coconut and Lavender Oil & Beeswax | 4 fl oz

I wish they made a bigger jar, as I go through it so fast, I use it morning and night after showers, getting expensive.It's a nice natural product that goes on smoothly, however my second jar was quite gritty so it didn't last very long.I don't like the smell, but aside from that I highly recommend it.Update: I have now used this since I was 4 months pregnant and I'm having my baby tomorrow. I haven't gotten a single stretch mark and I'm HUGE! It's in my genetics to get stretch marks, I have lots on my butt and thighs from getting curves too quickly as a teenager. I highly recommend :)

I adore this Baby Belly Balm!Why, you may ask? Because of the Magnesium Oil!I use this as a deodorant and let me tell you on this very fine 10th day of June, it works! It goes on smooth, does not leave me irritated compared to when I use the magnesium oil spray or magnesium oil gel.I work 16 hour days and add 90 minutes travel time to that and I still come home at the end of a long day stink free! Because I use this as a deodorant, this 4 ounce tub has lasted me a long time. I started using this December 18th, 2017 and still have over half left, you only need very little.I used to use the Vintage Tallow Balm deodorant, it is a herby scented deodorant, which you get used to over time and it is not over powering, but that only lasted 10 or 12 hours tops, I would have to add Mexana powder under my arms if I wanted it to last over 16 hours, you can also use Mexana as a deodorant but you'd have to reapply on those hot Summer days, especially if you work outdoors. Mexana is cornstarch with scent, no talc, so in a pinch you can use cornstarch on its own.I have also made my own deodorant with equal parts baking soda and corn starch and added coconut oil mixing to a smooth consistency, that totally works, and I used it for years, that will keep you almost 24 hours odor free. I was so over it when I sweated on hot Summer days and it left a big mark on my T-shirt under arms that came out in the wash, but still? It was a sight to see.If you do make your own deodorant with the baking soda mixture, know that the baking soda may irritate under your arm, so if you use 1/4 cup of cornstarch, use 1/8 cup of baking soda. Start small with the baking soda. Adding Mexana or cornstarch did help with decreasing the size of the sweat marks, but there just had to be another way!I have also used the Kids Calm balm version and also the Roll On application of the Magnesium oil that is made by Raise Them Well, and they all work, the balms are my favorite as they go on smooth and moisturize under the arm, leaving no irritation.I love, love, LOVE this stuff!

I was impressed with this product until I reached week 30. The first stretch marks appeared. Not sure in hindsight if it was even worth spending the extra money on. My baby is now 2 months old and I finished my last jar. There's no magic cream out there that can truly prevent nor clear up stretch marks. It really depends on how your body handles a pregnancy. Some of us are more lucky than others. And some of us can afford fancy procedures to help eliminate stretch marks while most of us can't. Good luck on your stretch mark endeavors.

This is my favorite product from Raise Them Well. I steered clear of using a belly cream for my first two pregnancies because I didn't like spending lots of money on a jar of toxic chemicals, which is what most belly creams are. Even if they work, I'm not willing to put myself and my growing children at risk to toxins just so I can avoid stretch marks. When I found out I was expecting twins this pregnancy and started to notice itching associated with my ever expanding belly I decided to see if I could find a belly cream that met my expectations. Which I feel aren't hard, no toxic chemicals and eases the itch. I'm happy to say that this product is fantastic. I'm 34 weeks into a twin pregnancies, there have yet to be any stretch marks, my skin feels healthy and most of all this takes away the stretching itch. I've purchased this three times this pregnancy and my only wish was that it came in a larger container. Now I'm not certain that i'll make it through my entire twin pregnancy without any stretch marks or that this will work for everyone, but for me, it's a fantastic product. Just look at the ingredients....Magnesium Oil, Aloe Vera, Jojoba Oil, Coconut Oil, Beeswax, Lavender Essential Oil, Vegetable Based Emulsifying Wax, Arnica, Water. I recommend this belly balm over any other that I've come across on the market! Great Stuff!

This product is the consistency of coconut oil, once ran between hands , it becomes the oily watery texture- I love it, it’s not the best smelling but it is doing its job. Which is all I care about. I leave it to dry for quite a while cause I really want it to seap into the skin. A little goes a long way.

This product didn't suit me at all. I loved it for about a week or so as it stopped my belly itching and kept my belly moist. After a week i started getting burnt marks under belly and IMF. Also it came without the inside seal which I thought doesn't exist so i started using it until just now whenI cane across a review about getting the balm replaced with an inner seal. Please please please always make sure that the product had a seal inside before using it.

I LOVE the smell of this. I dont understand why others havent. If you read the ingredients the smell makes complete sense. I sleep like the dead when I use it right before bed and that's a wonderful thing for 2nd trimester pregnant! Magnesium is exceedingly beneficial to mom and baby during pregnancy and most prenatals dont give you enough. Magnesium is also important for your skin health. The texture of the lotion is the same as the hand made lotion I've made and it is due to the beeswax and emulsifying wax that keeps it all together. Its seems like it would be lumpy, but it's super smooth. I highly recommend this product. It did not disappoint.
