dry, tight, itchy, stretching skin

Well ladies I've been through tummy butter, baby oil, bio oil, and aveeno lotion nothing helped my dry itchy stretching stomach and boobs some even made it worse so my mother in law bought me a product called "Mothers Friend" its a body cream used during pregnancy and I absolutely fell in love with it! Its a lotion but it's light and absorbs fast  so you can get dressed immediately after putting it on and not worry that your shirts absorbing more than your skin (one of my phobias) it keeps skin moisturized without having to apply multiple times a day. It's a great product and inexpensive I just had to share!

It helped tremendously with my itchy skin it was so dry I would take off my shirt and flakes of skin would fall out and be stuck to my shirt but now my skin is healthy and hydrated

Yes its for preventing stretch mark too. She got it from a local pharmacy or you could order it online I think it's around $8.00
