really worked for me
-05.15.13
Quick Take: scented
I used this postpartum, but also used the Mustela stretch mark cream as directed since the first trimester. After my son was born, I didn't have a single stretch mark.. not one! Well, to be fair I didn't gain too much weight (only 25 lbs.) over the entire course of my pregnancy, so it may not have been the lotion. But still. Mustela worked for me.

Not sure if it does anything
-12.03.12
Got this product and started using it after the delivery of my second child. Feels nice and cooling on. Like the scent too. But I am not sure if it actually firms up my skin.

Quick Take: non-sticky, soothing, scented
This is the only post partum shaping products I found on the market. With good review I brough it without hesitation. It turned out working well for me. I found that my skin got tider and smoother after using it for a few days. I would remember it to my friends.

Quick Take: non-sticky, soothing, scented
I use this product along with many others for my pregnancy I can't say if there are results, which I would only know once I give birth. I'll try anything to avoid stretch marks and help maintain my skins strength in any which way. Goes on smooth dries super fast and Ive used this brand in my past pregnancy, almost running out and will buy more.

Skin looks good
-06.10.09
Quick Take: scented, soothing
I have been using this every other day (that's as often as I can remember to apply it) for a month. Prior to using this I was using Belli Motherhood's firming gel for a month and a half which I received as a gift. I use this under my buttocks, chest, and belly. I'm not sure if it's genetics or the firming gels I've been using but I'm amazed at how firm my skin is getting in comparison to when I first came home from the hospital. It has a nice mild smell so I don't worry about my baby being too near recently applied areas. Mustela is a brand I trust. I am also using the baby products on my newborn. I think the price is reasonable. Anything to help me feel like I'm myself again is a luxury. Worth a try. I will probably buy it again for my next baby.

Not a Miracle Worker
-05.31.09
Quick Take: sticks to clothes, unpleasant scent, temporary results
I used this a few months after my first baby to help smooth the wrinkled appearance of my lower belly. It definitely helped make my belly appear tighter when I used it religiously, but like a cellulite cream, it seemed the effects were temporary. I stopped using the product, and my belly tightened on its own, anyway.
The product is also very sticky. I will still finish the bottle after I have this 2nd baby though.
