  faded my stretch marks

  by mamalicious (36 reviews)

  Top 500 ReviewerTrusted Review

  i started using this RIGHT after i had my baby. my stretch marks were horrible; i looked like i had been attacked by a tiger. they were at least a centimeter in width and at least 5-6 inches in length and very deep. they were also dark purple. after using strivectin, they are almost perfectly even with my skin (no more dent...s) and have shrunk in width and length. the color is almost the same as the rest of my skin, but you can definitely still see them. they have that silvery-look. it didnt make my stretch marks disappear, but it definitely helped. i dont regret buying it.

  smells weird

  by corizotti (511 reviews)

  Number One ReviewerTrusted Review

  i've used this product religiously on my stomach after my second son was born, going on 4 years now. my stretch marks were horrific, my ob said they were the worst she'd ever seen, and they looked more like i'd been in a fire than that i'd had a baby. after he was born my skin sagged terribly, and my stretch marks were stil...l bright red. since using this cream, for YEARS now as i've said, the marks are all white, and my skin is less saggy, though it never looked like i did before i had kids. im not sure the improvement wasnt just from time, and any lotion wouldn't have done the same. all in all, this cream is very expensive, thick, doesn't smell nice at all, takes too long to dry and you have to use it too many times a day. i think you'd be better off using cocoa butter or olive oil, at least they are better smelling, cheaper and have historicaly been used for the same purpose.

  I regret this purchase.

  by SJofAZ (44 reviews)

  I totally wasted my money on this product. It did nothing to reduce the appearance of my stretch marks. It did nothing to improve my complexion. In fact, when I used it on my face, it only made it feel warm and greasy, plus it made my face even redder. It had a strong odor to it, and I could always tell when I was near ...another woman who'd tried the product because I could smell it on her. The texture got watery and weird long before the expiration date, so I just threw it away. What a disappointment. December 6, 2007, 3:14 pm

  False advertisement

  by Glamorous (149 reviews)

  Top 100 ReviewerTrusted Review

  This product is ridiculously expensive and it doesn't work. The only positive thing about it is that it leaves my skin soft and creamy. After a week of using this product, I started to break out on my buttock and thighs (where I apply the product). Highly not recommended. September 2, 2008, 10:25 pm

  Hmmmm...

  by DeePsGrrl (27 reviews)

  Trusted Review

  I see this stuff has very mixed reviews. I am wondering if it depends on skin type and the amount of damage, because it worked great at making my stretch marks smoother and I was happy. But after shelling out all the $$$$ after a year I gave up and switched to the another product that is only like $ in comparison and very e...ffective. But I imagine I might try it again for some firming up. June 3, 2008, 11:45 am

  Buyer beware

  by williams1115 (14 reviews)

  I was given a sample of this "miracle cream" in an upscale mall in Las Vegas. At first, my skin starting feeling tight as if super glue had been smeared on my face. I just assumed it was working its magic. About an hour later, my husband told me my face was turning red. I went to the bathroom and washed my face. B...y the time we returned to the hotel, my face was welted and starting to break out. I have sensitive skin but this was the worst-and fastest reaction I have ever had. May 20, 2008, 9:05 am

  Overhyped - overpriced!

  by calicokitty (162 reviews)

  Top 100 ReviewerTrusted Review

  Thank goodness I didn't shell out the bucks for this. My sister gave me the rest of her tube after seeing no results (she used for diminishing wrinkles, not stretchmarks). She knew I was anxious to try this out...alas, no results for me either after finishing the tube. Did absolutely nothing. What a hoax. March 27, 2008, 10:57 pm

  YOU HAVE TO HAVE TIME

  by tonyayb (3 reviews)

  I too longed to use the product but felt it was out of my budget and this had to work for the price-WRONG!!It's a time comsuming regimen and if you have a job, family or a commute- more often than not you will have great difficulty keeping the schedule required to apply the cream. I'd rather have a product that costs less m...oney, takes more time to show results and is easy to use February 22, 2008, 10:47 pm

  anti wrinkle extreme

  by tinabyrne (26 reviews)

  stivectin is not only good for stretch marks but its great as an antiwrinkle cream for your face or if you have any scaring on your face this is a great product. i had a small scar on my face and after 6 wks you couldn't see it anymore. its kind of expensive however if you use it as a face cream it will last about 6 months ...which turns out to be cheeper that other face creams you buy monthly.
