Product reviews of Belli Elasticity Belly Oil, 4 FL. OZ.
Review: Fantastic
Beauty product: 5 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I was really pleased at the opportunity to review this product: my wife just got out of the first trimester. Since we're still only a few weeks into trying this product out, I can't really say whether or not she has any stretch marks, and I'll never really know how whatever stretch marks she does or does not get would have compared to what she would have gotten without any product, or with some other product.
That said, what we can talk about is the scent, and the texture. The scent is definitely pleasant. Not perfumy at all. She puts it on before bed since lavender is supposed to be calming.
The thing that we're most impressed at is how non-oily the oil is. The Belli rubs in very easily, and the resulting skin feels moisturized, but not at all oily. I don't think anyone could ask for more.
At least as importantly is the reaction - or lack of - that she gets from rubbing oil on her skin. My wife, during this pregnancy, has the tendency to break out from just about anything on her skin, but not from this!!!!
The 4oz bottle goes far: we just need a squirt or two to cover her whole lower belly.
Her friends say that this is a highly regarded product, and a highly regarded brand, so this is also a great gift for a pregnant woman close to you!
Review: Feel like a salad!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
Smear yourself with this lotion and feel like a salad! BELLI Elasticity Belly Oil looks like a bottle of a olive oil. The bottle is designed so you can spray the oil on, but my bottle was defective. I was unable to use the spray function and instead, I had to unscrew the cap and pour it on my hands.
I actually recommend applying it by hand since this oil permanently stains cotton clothing. I accidentally got some of this oil on my shirt and it stained my shirt. I tried getting the stain out, but I had no luck.
The oil itself actually did seem to reduce the appearance of stretch marks and left my skin feeling nice. Still, this is a messy product.
Lastly, I wrote to BELLI to enquire as to whether this product was tested on animals and never received a response. I was disappointed at this lack of concern for customer questions. I researched this topic on the internet and it appears that BELLI products are NOT tested on animals. However, the label of the belly oil does not indicate whether it has been tested on animals.
I'm not quite sure how to rate this item. It is what it claims to be - a stretch mark reducing oil. This was my first time trying a body oil though and found I did not like it. My dislike of body oils does not mean this is a bad product and those who like body oils will likely be satisfied.
Review: Fragrant and Moisturizing...

BELLI Elasticity Belly Oil is a fragrant blend that feels heavenly on your skin. It seals in moisture after a bath, making your skin soft and supple.
The packaging states that BELLI Elasticity Belly Oil is formulated with ingredients that will not leach into your baby's circulatory system in vitro, which is something that really appeals to me. Products that are safe for baby are safe for mommy!
The scent of lavender is very soothing and I also liked the convenient spray applicator on the glass bottle. BELLI Elasticity Belly Oil is something that I'd definitely recommend to expecting mothers and/or anyone who would like a deep moisturizing product made with safe ingredients.
Review: GREAT Belly/Body Oil!!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
When I received the Belli Oil, I was surprised on how much Belli oil you actually get. I thought this was a good value for the money. Then I thought, if they give you so much oil, then it must have some weird-do ingredients that I couldn't pronounce. To my surprise I could read and understand all the ingredients in this product. I am very conscious of what I put on my skin and how it could affect the baby.
The oil is light but highly moisturizing oil that claims to reduce the incidence of stretch marks during pregnancy. I'm currently at 19 weeks and remain stretch mark free so far. I've only been using the Belli Oil for about 6 weeks and I have no stretch marks and no itchy belly that I read so much about! During my 1st Trimester I could not stand the smell of anything so I was not able to use the Belli Oil. The oil is easy to apply and so far has been effective. Scent is not outstanding, but not bad either. I am NOT a fan of the spray bottle. The spray bottle could be worse but it could be A LOT better.
Other than the spray bottle, I have no complaints. GREAT PRODUCT!
Review: Good Product, Just a Little Pricey and a bit Greasy.

I got this for my wife and she only used it a few times before saying it was a little to greasy for her tastes. I think it has the potential to work if used as recommended. Is it worth the price? I'm not sure.
