A fair while ago, I was offered the chance to try out the Bio Elixia Body Shaper Stretch Mark Diminishing Creme. Whoa, that's a mouthful! Ever since I was a teenager, my weight has always fluctuated, which of course has resulted in a large number of stretch marks all over. Not a great look.
Now, before trying this product, I went into it knowing that stretch marks cannot be cured completely. Products can help reduce the size and severity of them, but nothing will ever get rid of them, and that's fine with me.
Making life so much easier, the Body Shaper Creme comes in a tube rather than a tub. A whopping 125ml in the tube is pretty great, as you definitely don't need a lot of this product to go around. In saying that though, it'll last you a long time, which is what you want in a product like this. You can't expect a difference overnight.
What I love about this product is that it makes no claims to completely cure your stretch marks. This product gives you a realistic goal of improving the look of the stretchmarks and making your skin softer and smoother.
It says to use two times a day which can be a bit frustrating if you're a one-a-day-showerer, but it works well for me because I actually shower twice a day. It's just a pain trying to remember it!

Overall I really liked the Body Shaper Creme. I've been using it for a solid few months now, and have seen pretty decent results. My weight has been up and down in the past few months while using the product, which does make it difficult to gauge a proper reading on how well it would usually work, but I was still pleased in how it worked.
I'd love to show you before and after shots of my stretch marks, but seeing as though they are in pretty private parts of my body (I'm talking about da booty) it's probably a bit TMI for my blog! I personally love to see before and after shots of this kind of thing, so I do apologise!
At the end of the day I felt like this product helped reduce the marks, made them less red (or less white and more skin coloured for those more established) and definitely made them seem smaller and less in your face. This hasn't cured my stretch marks, but this has made enough of a difference for me to notice and feel more comfortable in my own skin, and that's all I really expected, or hoped, from this product. So it ticks all points in my book!
Have you tried the Bio Elixia Body Shaper Stretch Mark Diminishing Creme before? If so, what are your thoughts? Did you have success or did this product fail for you?

Good review! I tried this too, and liked it too, and loved how soft it made my skin feel. And compared to other similar products on the market, this is quite well-priced too!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It does make the skin feel really soft, I love it! And true, pretty well priced!
DeleteI have really bad stretch marks too though they are pretty well established. This cream does sound amazing and I would love to try it!
