Testing stretch mark oil on a woman who isn’t pregnant (that would be me) may sound a bit tricky, but when you have a blend as pure and healthy for the skin as Mama’s Gold Stretch Mark Oil, any skin is happy to have it around.  I have oiled anyone with Mama’s Gold who would sit still long enough, including my nearly three-year-old son who has a tendency towards dry skin during the cold months.  He especially has enjoyed getting a good oiling, and with great results.  While he’s not in danger of getting stretch marks (even at his rapid pace of growth), the oil in Mama’s Gold by Shea Terra Organics impresses me as being completely safe and pure.

That’s good news for those of you who are pregnant.  Since the skin is the largest organ of the body, that means that whatever you put on that skin most definitely becomes a part of you.  And when there’s an unborn baby who is also part of you, you’ll want to be extra careful about your product choices.  Mama’s Gold has no ingredients but the following: Shea oil, carrot seed oil, pumpkin seed oil, baobab oil, tsamma melon oil, marula oil, lemon essential oil, lavender essential oil, calendula, Egyptian chamomile, kigelli, African potato, and blue mountain sage essential oil.  Those are all pure oils and nothing more!  I found that rather impressive.  The smell is mild and soothing, just right for any mama to be who may be experiencing a more sensitive sense of smell than usual.

The great news here is that Shea Terra Organics is giving away one bottle of their Mama’s Gold Stretch Mark Oil ($24 retail) to one of you!  Use it for yourself or give it as a gift to your expecting friend.  It’ll provide glowing skin no matter who gets the rub!

If you are looking for a product that is not only top of the line, but also has strong business ethics, purchases African products from individual non-government companies, and supports fair wage markets, then Shea Terra Organics may be what you are looking for.  Shea Terra has wowed me, seriously.  With 99%-100% organic products, what isn’t there to love? 

For someone who has had extremely dry skin/face their entire life, this has been a great discovery for me.  I had an opportunity to try the Pink Guava Pomegranate Body Lotion, Shower Elixir, and Dead Sea Salt Shea Body Scrub.  A bonus is the adorable pink striped packaging and locking lotion pump for easy travel. 

The Pink Guava Pomegranate Body Lotion is extremely thick and silky. A pleasant smell of pomegranate is not too strong and is refreshing.  The lotion builds a protective layer on your skin plus has healing properties to help reduce the signs of aging, increase elasticity, and improve skin’s moisture.  It is recommended for eczema, psoriasis, irritated skin, stretch marks, rashes, and wrinkles.  I have been massaging it into my face before bed and my skin is extremely soft the next morning which is a big improvement for me. After burning my hand on my curling iron, I rubbed it in right away and the swelling went right down. Plus, there is no burning sensation after shaving legs. 

The Pink Guava Pomegranate Dead Sea Salt Scrub is very unique in it’s not just all oils like most scrubs, and leaves your skin incredibly smooth while buffing away dead skin cells.  It won’t leave your tub all oily either!

The Shower Elixir will go a long way when using a shower buff-puff. I sparingly drizzled it on the puff and ended up with more suds then I knew what to do with. It is very moisturizing. In combination with the hot shower water, it leaves a great scent in the shower’s steam.  

Shea Pink Guava Pomegranate Skin Care Line is made up of “raw materials purchased through Free Trade practices and donates a portion of the proceeds, from each product, to self-empowerment projects throughout Africa.”  The entire line is packed with high amounts of healing pomegranate oil, 20-40% shea butter and a proprietary blend of Fair Trade African herbs and oils.  This line is “a favorite of Angelina Jolie” and now I see why.
