“This body oil is great. It smells wonderful and is natural and full of vitamins.” – Fearne Cotton.

Weleda Stretch Mark Massage Oil with a base of sweet almond oil works gently, delivering intensely moisturising essential fatty acids that keep your skin supple and protected from drying. Because pregnancy is a big job for your muscles and skin, the organic arnica flower extract helps ease tightness and provides a layer of comforting warmth when you indulge yourself with a soothing massage.

Nourishing wheat germ oil conditions and refines your skin’s texture with a high quantity of vitamins A, D and E. Regular use of Weleda Stretch Mark Massage Oil visibly helps to correct the appearance of stretch marks on your pregnant belly; your thighs, bottom and breasts; and helps prevent the appearance of new ones. Now you can take a deep breath, relax and save the deep stretching for yoga.

Weleda Stretch Mark Massage Oil has been developed in conjunction with doctors and midwives to provide comfort and skin care for mum before, during and after pregnancy.

Dermatologically tested. Suitable for vegans.
