Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula For Stretch Marks Lotion, 8.5 fl oz

I love palmer's products so when I became pregnant there was no hesitation to buy their stretch mark lotion. I applied it twice a day minimum (if i was itchy etc i applied more) and over two pregnancies I didn't get a single stretch mark and my tummy is like I have never been pregnant at all.

I have been using their original cocoa butter formula for over 20 years. When I went to get a new bottle I ran into this formula and decided to try it. Collagen, elastin, shea and argan oil caught my eye. It does not smell like cocoa butter at all. Doesnt smell great but it doesnt have fragrance in it which benefits those with sensitivities. It keeps my skin hydrated. it relieves my moms crepey skin.

I have used this lotion since week 13 of my pregnancy (now 36 weeks). I've also tried Burt's Bee's Mama Butter, but this is far superior to me in texture. It's very thick and creamy and rubs in nicely whereas the Burt's Bees brand is very watery and thin and never seems to rub in all the way. I know genetics plays a huge role in stretch marks, but I've been lucky and don't have a single stretch mark. I also love that I never feel itchy.

i've used this cream during and after my pregnancy last year and I've noticed a huge difference on my stretch marks on my tummy. They've actually faded significantly after everyday use for months.

so far its working well. Not a big improvement yet, but it hasn't been long enough. smells good, its smooth creamy and thick. it absorbs into the skin very fast.

At first I wasn't big on the smell of this lotion. My husband says it reminds him of old chocolate. None the less, I have been using this for about 5 weeks now and I love it. I even bought the body wash.

I am so disappointed in palmers. They changed a lot of the ingredients it's nothing like it was before. I still have an original bottle and compared the ingredients to the new one and it's not the same which explains why this stuff isnt working. The original formula worked miraculously!!! And now this stuff doesn't even work at all. Dont waste your money Here's the ORIGINAL FORMULA

I bought this a month ago, feels great when I first put it on but about 10 min later it starts balling up and pilling on my skin, making it feel very gross and not nice. It's like it doesn't absorb. Don't have this issue with any other moisturizers I have been using during pregnancy but this one. I used this 10 years ago with my daughter and loved it. Whatever has changed in the formula has made it go bad.

I am pregnant with my 4th baby. I used the old formula for baby 1 in 2011-2012, baby 2 in 2013-2014 and baby 3 in 2016-2017. The new formula is absolutely no good anymore, it instantly dries, there's no moisture left after a few minutes, I would not trust this to protect you from stretch marks during pregnancy. Why would you change formulas?! Whyyyyyyyy. Very disappointed and the hunt for finding a new belly lotion has been so challenging. So very sad.

I used this religiously when I was having kids in the 2000's. It smelled wonderful and worked beautifully. It was a daily product for my body for 10 months each time. Now that my oldest is having a baby, I bought her this to prepare, but after I tried it and smelled it, am disappointed in the quality after using a whole bottle. It doesn't work the same and she isn't impressed either. I used to market this to everyone because the formula was great. Wish they wouldn't have changed it as now we are off to trying other brands.
