Key Ingredients

Ingredient	Benefit
Green Tea Extract (EGCG):	Clinically proven to improve the appearance of scars, reducing the thickness and redness. High in antioxidants that fight cell damage. The majority of antioxidants inside Green Tea Extracts are Polyphenol antioxidants called catechins. Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) is the catechin researched the most. When applied topically, Green Tea Extract helps to prevent loss of elasticity, inflammation and premature ageing.
Vitamin C:	Boosts production of collagen and elastin and enhances cellular performance ultimately leading to better protected skin as well as helping to repair damage. Vitamin C is an antioxidant that the body uses to fight off toxins known as free radicals allowing healing and the formation of healthy scar tissue. Vitamin C helps to encourage the growth of new skin and improve skin appearance.
Micro Algae:	Seawater Brown Algae is one of the most intensely moisturising natural ingredients available. It hydrates the skin and protects it in doing so. Micro Algae is rich in Vitamin B12 which helps skin to retain moisture and lock in hydration.
Vitamin E:	Long known as a skin protector, Vitamin E is an antioxidant that protects and repairs. Antioxidants neutralise free radicals that cause skin damage. Vitamin E combats this and boosts rejuvenation, preventing cell damage from occurring. The body does not naturally produce the vitamin so applying it in a cream as well as eating it in certain foods is a great way to look after your skin.

I’ve been using it a bit inconsistently, however I’ve still managed to see a drastic improvement in my stretch marks. Will hopefully get more consistent and see proper results!

I would recommend this product to other mums. I liked the cream, I liked its appearance, it was not too greasy like other similar products can be. It also smelled nice. When I applied the cream it felt like my skin was really moisturised and also it felt like it soothed my stretching skin as well.

It rubs in beautifully leaving your skin feeling smooth and nourished.

I am pregnant and have been applying various creams and oils to my bump daily, so far no major stretch marks but I have seen the beginning of a few fine lines so I was more than happy to review the SOS Stretch Mark Defence. This oil is very different to those I have used previously; to start with it is a fine spray that you direct onto your bump and then rub in. So easy to use and I am sure this will be handy as my bump grows! There is no particular scent, just a clean, fresh smell and no oily residue, so perfect for after a morning shower and before work! The oil feels lovely on my skin and I have found that a little goes a long way… I have also been using the Solution for Stretch Marks, just concentrating on the fine lines and so far so good; they have not grown or darkened in colour – fingers crossed! Would I recommend these products? Yes, I think so, certainly based on the results I have had so far.

I was really happy with both of these creams and found them to be really hydrating. At first they felt quite wet when I was rubbing into the skin, which is something I dislike about moisturisers etc, however both creams rubbed in really well and felt really nourishing. As this was my second pregnancy, I already had stretch marks from my first pregnancy, so obviously I wasn’t going to be scar free by 9 months, however I don’t think my marks were any worse. After using the Stretch Mark Defence for a few weeks I really thought my skin felt soft and healthy. Now I’ve had my baby I’ve moved on to using the Solution for Stretch Marks and although I don’t think it will get rid of my stretch marks entirely, I’m hoping they will fade like they did after my first pregnancy.

I love SOS products, the only negative comment would be I wish I had these products to use throughout my first pregnancy. I especially love the stretch mark defence, the really fine spray means it doesn’t leave a greasy film on your skin or on your hands when applying it. Since using it day and night I haven’t had an itchy bump either so top marks all round.
