I started using
LIERAC at about 12 weeks into my third
pregnancy when I had already got a bit of a
baby
bump, but my old
stretch marks were still faded.
LIERAC feels much more
like a "proper"
cosmetic treatment than a
pampering product, largely due to the
packaging. Rather than a large tube of cream or oil, you get a series of
small
vials, to keep the high level of
active ingredients fresh. The
treatment is really
easy to use; you simply
snap the top off one vial,
insert a spray pump and
apply the oil. Once that
vial is finished, you break open a
new one and keep
going.
Rather than slathering all
over,
LIERAC is used to target
specific areas, you spray the
affected body
parts and rub in
twice a day. The product
feels lovely, and
absorbs easily
leaving
skin feeling smooth and
moisturised. The
only negative is that the
pump
that gets reused when you open each vial is
not generous in its spray, making
it hard to cover an
increasingly large area! However the
benefit of that is
that you feel that you are
not over using the product.
So far at
seven months pregnant,
my old
stretch marks appear to be holding up well having only become
slightly
redder, and I cannot really see any
new ones. I am hoping that with
continued
use after the next arrival I will see some
improvement on the
existing marks.
Generally
LIERAC Phytilastil is a great product.
