What it is:A stretch mark and body-shaping
treatment formulated for skin that has been adversely
affected by pregnancy, rapid weight loss, growth spurts,
or age.What it is formulated to do:Stretch Mark Control
is an innovative, highly targeted treatment that helps
reduce the unsightly and embarrassing appearance of
stretch marks, which can appear on anyone, and at any
time of life.
So far I have and terrific results with this product, but I think it is key to use it during pregnancy to prevent stretch marks. I used a shea butter lotion in the 1st trimester just to introduce some extra moisture, and then switched to this product during 2nd trimester, and will continue to use it to the end and until I'm back to my normal weight. I'm 25 weeks pregnant (and 15 lbs heavier) and have absolutely no sign of stretch marks so far!

so far so good- 02.01.10
Quick Take: creamy
It is early in my pregnancy, and I haven't used it too much but it is way less greasy than other 'belly salves' I've tried. It also absorbs quickly and you don't have to use much, so the sticker shock isn't as bad once you use it.

I really don't know if it works or not, but I like the smell :) THat's why I gave a 4, I'm only 6 months and didn't get any stretchmarks yet (hopefully won't get them at all) - only used a product a couple of time (2-3) so it's definitely not because of it,

Very Helpful- 09.29.09
Quick Take: hydrating
This is second time I buy it, I love it cuz it reduce the apperance of my strecth marks a lot, I see the improvement. You might not see the difference right away, I have had this problem for a couple of years and I have used many products and I could say this one works, only if u use it everyday. (Reed manual)

Nice Product- 08.16.09
Quick Take: creamy, scented, hydrating
I am 16 weeks along and started using this product about 3 weeks ago when the stretch marks started to appear. I actually think that they are slightly diminishing and nothing new is popping up. I use it in combination witht the Tonic Oil, which I love.

So far so good- 07.18.09
Quick Take: creamy
I started using this product only 2 weeks ago and I'm in my 23 week of pregnancy.
I haven't gotten any new stretch marks yet, but I was feeling the tightening of my belly as it really started to grow.
Since starting (in conjunction with the Tonic Firming Oil) my belly and chest feel great and have even stopping constantly itching.
I probably should have started using it earlier, but better late than never!
Another friend used it her entire pregnancy and has 0 stretch marks. I purchased it on her recommendation.

Stretch Mark Control- 06.25.09
Quick Take: creamy, hydrating
HIGH RECOMMENDATION! Had gotten stretch marks from rapid weight gain, had them for approximately 5 months, noticed a huge change in size & color within 2 months.. I don't think they will ever disappear (even says so in the pamphlet) but will continue to use until I buy a 2nd bottle!

Quick Take: creamy, hydrating
So far the product is working great. I have been using it twice a day now for two weeks and I have noticed an improvement in the quality of my skin. My stretch marks have been there for probably 6 or 7 years, so they are white and probably not going to get much better in terms of color, but the skin now is much smoother and the stretch marks have tightened up. I am also using in conjuntion with this product a anti-cellulite cream gel.

No difference...- 04.13.09
Clairins Stretch Mark Control made no difference in my stretch marks after weeks of use. I have old stretch marks so maybe it would better on fresher ones, but it didn't help mine at all.

Not A Very good Buy...- 02.04.09
I purchased this thinking that it would help with my stretch marks after birth but was disappointed when I didn't see any results. Not worth the buy.

Quick Take: creamy, hydrating, very lightly scented, not going to replace cosmetic surgery
I found this cream to be very moisturizing. It made my skin feel really smooth. It has a very nice, light scent to it and it doesn't take forever to absorb like some creams. My skin feels great after I use it and even the next day. It didn't tighten any loose skin and it didn't make my stretch marks disappear, but it did help. In other words, it does not perform miracles. But what do you expect? Aside from cosmetic surgery,NOTHING will make them disappear completely. I know some women who used cocoa butter during their entire pregnancy and after, and they didn't end up with bad stretch marks. I think that this would help during pregnancy too but you have to be using it diligently and start using it before your belly starts growing. It's a little pricey but I will keep buying this product. It's actually a pretty big bottle and I thought it worked great.

Not sure yet- 09.14.08
I've had the product for about 3 weeks and have been using it 2x a day. I think I might see some difference but I'm not 100% that it has helped my stretch marks. I'd think I'd try something else if you're looking to get rid of yours. It might not be worth the money.
