MOMMY & ME STRETCH MARK CREAM REVIEW

Hello lovelies!! After loooong break. If you have been visit my blog and facebook page regurally you may know that I was pregnant. I had a baby girl on 7^th  April. It’s a news.
The reason I have been absent quite long time is I was more concentrate on getting ready for baby arrive and spending a lot of time with family. But as things getting normal I thought this is high time I should get back to my favorite blogger thing.  So here I am back.

Like most of new mommies my biggest conscious after having baby is my body. Dark pigments on some parts of skin like neck, armpit, belly. Stretch marks. And be on shape. No matter what remedies we try, How much conscious we are about that, we can’t avoid them happening. And it is not possible to get rid of them as quick we hope. Well but this is not something where I talk how to get rid of them. So let’s go to topic.

MOMMY & ME STRETCH MARK CREAM is something I chose to help me to prevent stretch marks during my pregnancy. I have been used this on my third trimester. alternatively I used a mixture of same amount of almond & olive oil to massage my belly now and then.  I make my review in short.

MOMMY & ME STRETCH MARK CREAM is to help diminish stretch marks before and after pregnancy.

Smell: hard to explain. Some may hate while some may feel it has a nice smell. For me it is not something special but sure not an unbearable smell.

Texture:  off white in color,  watery type cream.

How to use: it is recommended to use 2 to 4 times a day as needed. As I use this along with olive & almaond oil, I only used this 2 times a day. All you need is to gently massage this on tummy after wash.

Result:  couldn’t say I got positive result at all. But this cream sure help me from itchiness and moisturize well. Anyway there is no cream to diminish stretch marks whatsoever.May be I should use this even after giving birth to see a better result. May be!! But I omit to buy this again as it quite expencive.  But I will not quit trying. so I switch to my alternative option almond and olive oil combination. And also in search of more tips and remedies to be quit of stretch marks.

Now tell me have you tried this cream to prevent stretch marks? And does it help?
and also share your thoughts, experiences,  tips and remedies which help reduse stretch marks.

THE BODY SHOP COCONUT BODY BUTTER REVIEW

'THE BODY SHOP' a favourite brand of ladies. we can find a lot of flavours in their range. I bought this coconut body butter few months ago. you can find this on my Mini BODY SHOP Haul.

I have used this only for 2, 3 times. so not going very deep, I'll review it in short.

How does it smell :
Smell as it named. The real coconut smell and a bit of cocoa butter. but not too strong. smell stays for hours. some may hate this smell while some love it. I have mixed feeling about this smell.

Moisturise :
Ideal for dry skins. absorb fast and moisturise well. as I'm having a normal skin it leaves little bit greasy effect. preferably good for dry skins.

I haven't used it more than 2,3 times. as I having mixed feeling about the scent and it leaves my hands sweaty. (my hands are likely to sweaty naturally and this body butter increase it) so I am not a big fan of this.

Have you tried THE BODY SHOP BODY BUTTERS?

The Body Shop Mini Haul & Shower Gel Review

I hop into The Body Shop in my recent shopping outing with husband. even I crossed The Body Shop every time in the mall this was my first visit and I was totally blank out what to choose!! after checking almost the shop I decided to buy something I really use. As the winter arrived my skin need some special care, so I picked up COCONUT BODY BUTTER & NEROLI JASMINE SHOWER GEL.

I haven't tried Body Butter yet so review will be in another post. so lets have a look on Neroli Jasmine Shower gel.

THE BODY SHOP'S NEROLI JASMINE SHOWER GEL

Scent 

a mixed feeling of artificial and flowery kind of perfume smell. smell disappears once washed off, though the scent was too strong in the bottle.

Lather

a thick liquid. lather so well. doesn't dry my skin. 

What I Like
I am not an artificial scent lover. yet this was kinda lovely perfume smell for me.
few drops lathers well.
a handy tiny bottle, with quite lowest price tag. 
good for travelling.

What I Don't Like
disappoint me without leaving any smell or moisture.

Finally, its an OK product.

Little bit for Monsoon

Personally I'm not a person who thinks Rain is romantic. And not in interest in such filmy things during Rain. but I am not hating it either. Rather I can say Rain is relaxing,,, aaaaaannnnd Perfect for sleeping..

as I am now in middle east, Monsoon is not anyway here. But I have monsoon experience from my childhood. a bit hard season for skin and body. so thought to share some tips in general for monsoon.

• Drink water. to keep your skin and body healthy. ya I know it makes to be in the Bathroom often. but  your skin needs water to keep moisture. 
• choose hot Beverages than chilled soft drinks. cool drinks make you to go to bathroom soon than hot drinks. try if you not believe. anyway Having a cup of Hot COFFEE or Tea is most refreshing on rainy days.
• after bath dry your hair properly, apply moisturize lotion, and lip balm. I don't like to oil my hair on this season. so I prefer leave on conditioner to avoid dry hair. Not good to go with gels, creams, moose or hair styles on monsoon.keep your hair natural is the best way.
• wear a slipper or socks even at home. because the floor or tile may be cold these days. it can make cracks in your foots. or if you already having it'll be more painful to walking on the cold floor. better use an foot cream these days. 

Going Out

eeeewww.. Going out in monsoon is really annoying. if it is me I don't even keep my legs on the floor. but everyone can't avoid going out. you cannot predict when will the rain drop fall. So be ready.

• never forget to bring an Umbrella in your bag.
• Don't choose light color clothes which can spot mud or dirt soon.  choose dark color dresses instead.
  well if your schooling then no options. you may select a rain coat. I prefer to not to Expose on rainy days(actually not in any day) be sure to cover your self properly as a precaution in case you get wet. not a pleasure to see your undies over your clothes in a public bus. if it is, you have to face lots of unconfortables! what about a coat over your clothes or a stylish Raincoat.
  Here are few rainy day Outfits ideas from web..

• another thing you have to keep on mind is to carry an waterproof bag. such as leather. because there is lot of chances to get wet, even you carry an umbrella. so keep it on mind to keep your things from get wet.
• wear a pair of flip flop or flat shoes. can prevent you from slips, and easy to remove muds.
• avoid over make ups. go normal. rather than make ups, keep your mind on skin to prevent it from being dry.choose a good moisturize lotion. choose a good misturizing cream for your face. and a lip balm. don't forget them in your bag when you go out. better avoid foundation if it is necessary just go with a simple make up.foundation, Highlight your eyes with a pencil & waterproof mascara, and your lips with natural shades.

janet Strawberry Deep Cleansing Face Wash Review

Since I start blogging, I haven't done a review post yet..soo I thought to share my thoughts on a product which I love these days..not because all the bloggers are doing it, but just for a change.

anyway here is my first review post ever,, it is about janet strawberry deep cleansing fash wash. when I started to use my first face wash (not this one) I had an extremly oily face. eventhough that product help me to reduce the extra oilness, but after 2, 3 years using it I felt that product quality is not like as before.so I stop using it,and  went to another two more brands, but they let my face really dry.yet I have an oily face. so I stop using them too. and then 3 months before I picked up this one 'janet strawberry deep cleansing face wash' and it is really friendly to my face.

It says it is for normal-oily skin, and contain strawberry+aloe vera+sarsaparilla and vetrivel..

I love this tube for several reason,

1.I really love the color of this tube.

2.It smells so good. a refreshing smell. though I really cant say it is strawberry smell or what. because I am very poor in catching smells, But I can say its a natural's smell.

3. very soft foaming, mild and not much thick texture. but a little is more enough to whole face & neck. infact im using one tube nearly for a month.

4.I love the fresh cool feeling after wash it off. a really very cool feeling like menthol. I loved it.

5. it clear my face, removing make up and oilness, and not drying my skin. 

6. I felt it is a natural product.

7.it is a sri lankan product of janet ayurveda.

8.its having halal certificate of all ceylon jamiyyathul ulama. it means its free of animal fats and alcohol.

as I say before I really love the smell, for real it makes me to taste it. it taste like acid, as same as some creams taste. crazyness isn't? what else can say? but come on,  don't you ever taste such a smell product?

I move to another country so I'm not sure whether I can buy the same product again. a bit sad and curious to try a new one. so hopefully I can do another review post soon. because I find out it is much interesting.

soo its my review. let me know your views about this post..:D

P.S  :all the things I post about this product is in my opinion.make sure to buy products that suits your skin type.
