Side Effects and Directions
Melvita Stretch Mark Prevention Cream contains linalool, which can cause irritation if it is exposed to oxygen for an extended period of time. The best solution is to ensure that the cap is closed after every use. Those with sensitive skin, especially those who have had problems with eczema, may want to conduct a patch test prior to use.
Apply liberally to stomach, thighs, and any other affected areas twice daily.
In-Depth Review
Melvita Stretch Mark Prevention Cream uses a plethora of natural ingredients to help women prevent the formation of stretch marks. Melvita works best when used before stretch marks develop.
Melvita Stretch Mark Prevention Cream represents the latest trend in beauty products over the past several years; all-natural, ecologically-friendly products. The motivation behind producing products such as these is great, but some companies have realized they can profit from eager consumers by slapping an “all-natural” tag on their products. Other companies have made legitimate efforts to create organic or all-natural products, but aren’t able to deliver when product effectiveness is compared to more traditional products.
So which of these categories does Melvita fall into? For one, Melvita does use a variety of ingredients that have been backed up by scientific research, but it is not known how effective these ingredients are when compared to more traditional ingredients. A brief online search reveals that there is a lack of consumer-generated information available about the product, although the few reviews that can be found are generally positive. Melvita does contain linalool, which can cause eczema in some people. Otherwise, Melvita seems like a decent product.
