I have super dry and super sensitive skin, I can’t use hand sanitizer or most lotions because they hurt my skin especially during cold months, but I have not had any issues with this moisturizer.I have still gotten mild stretch marks on the underside of my stomach (below my belly button), they aren’t very long or dark, I am at 36 weeks and have gained about 25 pounds so far.I honestly didn’t really start showing much until I was about 28 weeks along (it just looked like I had eaten a somewhat big meal before then ��), so basically all of my bump has been in the last month in a half or two months which probably is part of why I still got stretch marks when using this.My first container smelled like tanning oil (coconut to me) and the second smells more like mango or pineapple, but isn’t overly smelly. Since it’s made out of natural oils the scent slightly changing isn’t surprising or an issue in any way, it just interested me when I opened the second container.I’ve been using this at least twice a day for the last few weeks on my stomach, sides of my hips and some days a little on my lower back (not as often, mainly when it feels dry). Before that I used it once a day after showers because, like I said, I didn’t really have a bump.This is my first pregnancy so I can’t say if I would have had more stretch marks if I hadn’t used it, but considering how small and light mine are, I would say it’s definitely helped.I didn’t expect to have no stretch marks at all from using this (even though many other reviewers said they didn’t) just because of how dry my skin constantly is, so I’m happy with how well it has worked for me.UPDATE: I am now at 41 weeks have have stretch marks all the way up to my belly button (they’re probably about 6-8 inches long), they still aren’t very dark, but my skin sometimes feels dry and slightly itchy. I have one part of my skin that looks like when you bruise and almost break the skin, it doesn’t hurt or bleed, but definitely didn’t expect that with how great people said this lotion was.Previously I wasn’t dissatisfied with the results since I know I have really problematic skin, but now I’m a bit disappointed with the final results.★ UPDATING AGAIN ★It has been a couple years and I used shower oil and body butter lotions during pregnancy since then, and have had better results with those products (no itchiness, and only one new mark).I have also learned my skin is more likely to get stretch marks than the average person, so I added one star back on because the results probably aren’t entirely the lotion’s fault… ��
