When I was pregnant, many mothers (including my own mother) implored me to slather my body with cocoa butter in order to prevent ‘frightening stretch marks’ as they affectionately called them. So I waddled myself to the drugstore and looked for a cocoa butter cream- particularly one that had ‘prevents and minimizes stretch marks’ emblazoned on the jar or tube. The esthetician side of me had to read the label on the back of the product, and I noticed a mile-long list of ingredients, many of which included chemicals that were not exactly fetus-friendly.

I boycotted the cocoa butter and took a chance. Lucky me, I wound up with very few stretch marks – if any at all. Had I known about Mario Badescu Skin Care at the time, however, I’m sure my son would have leaped for joy in the womb with every application of Muscle Oil all over my pregnant body.

Whether you’re expecting or trying to become pregnant, you may want to give our Muscle Oil a try. It prevents stretch marks and helps minimize existing ones. Not to sound biased, but unlike other stretch mark-reducing creams and topical ointments on the market that contain baby-unfriendly ingredients, our Muscle Oil is a concoction of all safe and natural ingredients such as Almond oil and Vitamin A, D & E oils.

Did you just feel a little kick? It’s a sign: your baby loves the idea of our Muscle Oil, too!
