Weleda Mum Organic Stretch Mark Massage Oil 100ml

Weleda Mum Organic Stretch Mark Massage Oil 100ml is a body oil for regular massage during and after pregnancy. It combines sweet almond, jojoba and wheat germ oils with arnica extract. Choose it when you prefer an oil that lets your hands glide over the skin instead of a cream or body butter.

The soft floral fragrance includes rose, neroli and myrrh notes. This is a fragranced formula, so compare the full ingredient list if you prefer unscented body care or know that particular fragrance components do not suit you. Sweet almond oil and wheat germ oil are also useful ingredients to identify before purchase.

The brand’s directions are to massage with light circular movements over the tummy, thighs, bottom and breasts two to three times daily. Weleda describes use from the beginning of pregnancy through the breastfeeding period. Follow the pack directions and any individual guidance from your midwife or healthcare professional about massage during pregnancy.

The purpose of the routine is to keep skin feeling soft, moisturised and supple as the body changes. Massage can be a quiet care step as well as a way to spread the oil evenly. It does not guarantee that stretch marks will not appear, so choose the product around its texture, ingredients and how comfortably it fits your routine.

The 100ml bottle gives you one body-oil format to use consistently rather than a collection of separate creams. Warm a little between your hands, apply gently and allow it to absorb before dressing. Keep the bottle closed, away from direct sunlight and heat. Use externally, avoid the eyes and discontinue if irritation occurs. Check the label for your own sensitivities before first use.
