Strechy problem.. -_-

          So I never thought I would be that girl, but I was. I have severe stretch marks, really bad, across my tummy, on my sides, behind my arms and inner thighs, and for some reason I feel like lalo sha dumadami? Anu ba to? Super na depress nako, looks like I was attacked by a lion! Haha but no worries I found something that won't eliminate stretch marks but help make them less visible and prevent it na dumami pa, I really wish someone would have told me about this when I was pregnant. My good friend Bianca Manalo failed to tell me this early on but its their family secret- Argan oil, she doesnt have a baby yet but all her sisters do and none of them have stretch marks, so pregnant or not argan oil is absolutely a must and a girl secret we shouldn't keep from each other!

          I always hear and see argan oil being sold some even mixed in shampoo but pag ganun madami ng iba halo ng products so it not really PURE, minsan may halong olive oil or other thing i dont even know, in other world tinitipid tayo, tas mas malaki kikitain nila.. Well im really lucky that my good friend @sel_guevara who is a fitness blogger and PBA courtside reporter is a distributer of the PURE ARGAN OIL.. You can order your "Liquid Gold" directly from her as i can asure you it the real thing! I use it everyday now and i can definately see and feel the difference! Its somewhat addicting! as you see sa pic malapit ko na maubos haha

         

Here are the top 10 uses for Argan Oil- 

1. Face Moisturizer - After cleansing morning and/or night, massage a few drops of argan oil directly onto your face and neck. Since argan is considered a dry oil, it absorbs quickly and is not greasy. If you want to use it as a serum, apply your night cream after the oil absorbs into the skin.

2. Hydrating Toner – Add a few drops of argan oil to your favorite facial toner to hydrate and tone simultaneously. You can make your own toner by adding a few drops of argan oil to Rose or Orange Blossom water.

3. Rejuvenating & Brightening Face Mask – Add a few drops of argan oil to your store-bought mask. Alternatively, make your own mask by mixing 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 3 teaspoons of Greek-style yogurt, 1 tablespoon of honey and 3 drops of argan oil in a bowl. Apply on a clean, dry face and leave on for 10 minutes. Rinse off with warm water.

4. Exfoliating Lip Scrub and Moisturizer – To smooth and moisturize your lips, add a few drops of argan oil and vanilla extract to fine brown sugar. Lightly massage into lips using circular motion and rinse off.

5. Face Glow – Add a drop or two of argan oil to your foundation, bronzer or tinted moisturizer for a dewy, luminous glow.

6. Leave-on Conditioner – After the shower, while your hair is still wet, add a few drops of argan oil to your hair, ends and scalp to hydrate and moisturize. It’s especially nourishing if your hair is dry from daily use of a blow dryer, straight-iron or curling iron.

7. Hair Styling Shine – When your hair is dry, use as a styling product by adding a few drops of argan oil to the palms of your hand. Rub your hands together and run your fingers through your hair to create shine and tame frizz. You only need a small amount. It lasts a long time.

8. Overnight Hair Treatment – Massage a generous amount of argan oil into your hair, ends and scalp. Wrap your hair and leave it on while you sleep. In the morning, wash your hair and you’ll have luminous, soft locks.

9. Cuticle and Heel Softener – Massage a few drops of argan oil into your cuticles to soften, moisturize and encourage nail growth. Use as an overnight treatment to nourish cracked heels by working a good amount into your feet and toes. Cover with socks and wake up to supple feet.

          Aside from Argan Oil I made another discovery, Mustela Restructuring Gel! I already use Mustela products but for Kiera they have a huge selection of baby washes and other baby products that I adore! while searching for other baby products I could get for Kiera, I came across some of their mommy products that were amazing, as well as the nipple cream that really help me help after breastfeeding to prevent that boo boo and ouchie if you know what I mean haha but lets talk about the tummy gel first.. I also use this under my corset, you can instantly feel the tightening and it dries so quickly! Use at least twice a day for a month. The main effect of the get is to restore firmness of tissues, remodels body contours and restores skin quality. This is also the only product on the market that is especially formulated for the post partum period, its also not sticky! as my research tells me 84% of women clinically tested reported firmer skin and 89% reported increased tone and 81% notice skin restructuring. This product is also compatible with breastfeeding! i love it! Its also a mommy must have for me.... you can check the out at a mall near you or on IG @mustelaphilippines 

          One day pag naka lakas ako ng loob i'll show you guys my stretch marks and how it changed.. kaya ko to! Its never to late!

          Hope I helped you out!
