Mustela Stretch Mark Cream Reviews

admin — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 21:25:29 +0000

Finding a stretch mark cream is as easy as turning on your computer, there are about a million different types available online. However, finding an effective stretch mark cream is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. There are no shortages of companies that make and market these creams, and if you are not careful you will buy into the marketing scheme rather than product itself.

Because many of the marketing campaigns for these creams are the only thing worth buying! In other words some of the creams are less than truthful on their product claims. So, how do you make sure you buy one of the effective creams, and not one of posers? The answer to this is simply by researching the product before you buy it, which is exactly what I am about to do with this cream.

When researching a product you always want to list the Pros and Cons of the product as well as the ingredients actions. This will help you decide what products are best suited for your specific needs and if the product is really as effective as you want. Mustela Special Stretch Marks Double Action Cream has some obvious pros and cons, as does any product, let’s look a little closer.

Pros:

This formula is specifically designed for use during pregnancy and postpartum, which means that it has been tested under gynecological standards and control.
It is safe to use with ultrasound machines.
Safe to use during breastfeeding.
Calls for application twice a day rather than 3-4 times a day like other formulas.
Cost half of what other formulas cost.
Application results in a thick layer of moisture on the skin that lasts all day, preventing dryness.
Smells pleasant.
Seems quite successful at preventing stretch marks.

Cons:

Thick layer that prevents drying can cause clothes to stick to you, and generally make you feel “icky”.
Most women say that it does nothing to reduce the appearance of old stretch marks.
The sweet smell can agitate morning sickness in some women.
Cost is higher than other prevention products.
Hard to find in a retail location.
In order to receive full benefits of the product you must begin using it early in your pregnancy, before your belly begins to grow.

For a product to work properly, it needs to contain the right ingredients. In this case Mustela stretch marks double action is primarily used as a prevention tool to prevent stretch marks before they occur. While the website makes mention of minimizing the appearance of stretch marks the majority of women that use, or have used the product, state that it has little to no effect on existing stretch marks…new or old. Therefore, we should focus on ingredients that moisturize the skin and increase the skins elasticity and suppleness, to prevent the stretch marks from occurring. The main active ingredients in Mustela double action are Elastoregulator®, a soy peptide derivative, Chlorophycea, and Lupeol combined with Alpha Hydroxy Acid. Elastoregulator, a soy derivative, reinforces the skin’s elasticity by promoting the production of collagen and elastin, when used in combination with alpha hydroxy acid it stimulates cellular renewal and acts on reducing the prominence of stretch marks. Lupeol stimulates collagen production. In English this translates to a lot of ingredients that moisturize and increase the production of collagen and elastin, a critical component to preventing stretch marks.

It is important to remember that this product is intended to prevent stretch marks, not to cover them or eliminate them. Mustela has received some unjust negative reviews from women who bought the product in an attempt to reduce the appearance of old stretch marks. The product description is for stretch mark prevention. In general this product seems to have a large base of followers that either love it or hate it. The greater majority of women that I found who bought this product to prevent stretch marks during pregnancy, and who started using it early on, had only positive comments about it. The completely uniform number one complaint on the product was pricing, not failure to prevent stretch marks. In conclusion, Mustela seems like a great product that offers full spectrum protection against the development of stretch marks. However, you must remember that stretch marks may occur no matter what you use do to genetics and internal changes.

Cosmetyn Review

admin — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 00:52:31 +0000

Does Cosmetyn Work? There is a lot of press about this new stretch mark cream. We decided to look at the ingrediants to see what really going on with this Stretch Mark Cream.

Examining the ingredients of a Cosmetyn will give you a better idea of whether or not the product will be effective at achieving its claims. So let’s take a look at the ingredients in Comestyn:

Palmitoyl Oligopeptide: Is an extremely impressive ingredient! Palmitoyl Oligopeptide is a synthetic peptide, and we know that peptides are the building blocks, or foundation for the bonding of amino acids. And they are also extremely effective at repairing skin damage. Palmitoyl Oligopeptide is quickly becoming one of the most popular ingredients in anti aging skin care. The manufacturers of this particular synthetic peptide tell us that when applied to the skin it stimulates the production of collagen and elastin.

The bad news is the only company that has run trials on this product, which is also the company boosting its amazing success, is the company that is responsible for creating it…Proctor and Gamble. This is not to say that the product doesn’t work, theoretically the product should work amazingly, but it would be reassuring to have a second opinion on testing.

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7: Is yet another type of Peptide that has amazing potential to smooth and regenerate the surface layer of skin all while increasing skin elasticity, and tone. The makers of Comestyn claim that this peptide greatly reduces the appearance of stretch marks by making the surface layer of skin thicker.

Acetyl Hexapeptide-8: Is also a peptide, however, it is renowned for its ability to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It is actually commonly referred to as topical botox. While this particular peptide has proven effective at reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles, I had trouble finding any conclusive results of it on its own treating stretch marks. Although in conjunction with the other peptides in this formula, I am quite sure it boosts its effects.

Rutin: Is an all natural product commonly found in stretch mark creams, and other topical applications to treat other skin aliments. Makers of this cream, and others, claim that it is essential to stretch mark reduction because of its strong ability to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin.

Phaseolus Lutanus Extract: Trypsin and Chemotrypsin are responsible for destroying certain peptides in the body; Phaseolus Lutanus Extract blocks this synthesis from happening there by allowing the body to make increased amounts of collagen and elastin.

Emblica Phyllanthus Extract: Removes the pink and purple color from the skin surrounding a stretch mark.

Licorice Extract: Is excellent at fighting age spots and discoloration, this is a common ingredient in most stretch mark creams.

Hydrocotyl Extract: Is a natural healer it reduces swelling and puffiness, promotes healing and collagen production.

Bearberry Extract: Is commonly used to reduce the appearance of freckles, age spots, and other skin discolorations. In this case it is used to remove the discoloration surrounding the stretch mark.

Emu Oil: Has amazing healing powers on human skin because of its nearly identical make up as human skin. Emu oil has been linked to many healing claims, however, there is not enough sufficient evidence to prove or disprove this claim.
