Overview
What is Palmer's Cocoa Butter
Palmer's Cocoa Butter Stretch Marks Lotion is an effective way to improve the skin elasticity and reduce the visibility of stretch marks. The blend of natural oils, including other ingredients, keep the skin moisturised for the next 48 hours allowing it to stretch more easily.
Stretch marks are streaks that can appear on the skin when it has to grow and stretch too quickly for the elasticity in it to allow. They are most frequently found on the stomach, hips, thighs, bottom and breast areas and are commonly found in pregnant women, appearing more so in the last trimester of the pregnancy but they can occur in men and in teenagers too. Stretch marks can be dark red, brown, pink, black, silver or purple in appearance. Once they appear, they will never disappear entirely but can sometimes fade over time.
Whilst part of the natural process of expanding skin in many cases, some sufferers will find them unsightly and would seek to improve the way they look. Others will hope to prevent their appearance from coming in the first place! This can now be achieved with the use of products such as Palmer's Cocoa Butter Stretch Marks Lotion which will work to improve the skin's elasticity so fewer stretch marks form, and will also reduce the appearance of ones already there.
How effective is Palmer's Cocoa Butter stretch marks lotion?
Palmer's Cocoa Butter, Stretch Marks Lotion, has been clinically tested. It is hypoallergenic and dermatologist approved to provide treatment to the skin to prevent and reduce the appearance of stretch marks.
An 8-week trial of 102 female participants aged 18-49 showed that 98% saw improved elasticity in their skin. It is the reduced elasticity that causes it to rupture slightly, creating the stretch marks.
Lifestyle factors, genetics, diet and skin type all play a role in the forming of stretch marks, how severe they are and whether they will reduce significantly in appearance will differ from person to person. But an improvement in elasticity should assist with the severity – using this product as directed should help with this.
Skin can become more sensitive during pregnancy, so always do a patch test before using.
Palmer's Cocoa Butter Stretch Marks Lotion will keep skin supple and moisturised for up to 48 hours, which will allow it to stretch more easily.
Always follow the guidelines for use.
How does Palmer's Cocoa Butter stretch marks lotion work?
Palmer's Cocoa Butter, Stretch Marks Lotion, has a unique blend of many natural ingredients to help ensure the skin is cared for. The blend of pure cocoa butter, Shea butter, natural oils, collagen, elastin and lutein all work together to hydrate the skin thoroughly and then keep it moisturised and supple for up to 48 hours. This will then allow the skin to stretch more easily to prevent stretch marks from occurring in the first place.
For stretch marks that are already in place, the combination of ingredients will help the skin to heal by keeping it hydrated (moisture is imperative for the healing process) and will promote cell regeneration.
It is hypoallergenic, dermatologist approved and suitable for sensitive skin.
It is free of mineral oil, parabens, phthalates and phenoxyethanol.
How long do I use Palmer's Cocoa Butter stretch marks lotion for before I notice a difference?
From the first use of Palmer's Cocoa Butter Stretch Marks Lotion, you will notice your skin feeling more supple, hydrated, softer and moisturised. Any itchiness associated with dry skin or the stretching of it should also be eased.
Palmer's Cocoa Butter Stretch Marks Lotion works effectively as a preventative measure, so continue to use for as long as is necessary. Some users will also notice a reduction in the appearance of existing stretch marks within a few weeks of continuous use as directed.
Use Palmer's Cocoa Butter Stretch Marks Lotion 3 times per day for the best results.
