First impressions of the My Expert Midwife Fantastic Skin Elastic
"The packaging is great and the pump makes it easy to use and ensures the correct amount of product. It has a strong fragrance but I like that. It rubs in well and leaves skin feeling soft."
- Lisa
"Lovely scent, packing simple but effective, pump bottle makes it much easier to apply."
- Amanda
"I loved the look of the Fantastic Skin Elastic. The colours and design of the bottle are really nice and attractive and I think it looks like a high end product. I used this product throughout my pregnancy and I really trusted this line of midwife developed products! This is a light oil which absorbs into the skin well and is easy to rub in, though I did find I need to apply quite a lot to ensure a good even coverage. It's made with natural ingredients and is unfragranced, but does have a light, natural scent."
- Kathryn
Did you see any noticeable improvements to your scar and/or stretch marks?
Yes
"The stretch marks on my legs and hips improved and faded using this product for 2 weeks." - Amanda
"I used this product throughout pregnancy on my bump and did not get any stretch marks, so I think it did really help to keep my skin soft and retain elasticity. It is really lovely to massage into the skin. I have started to use this product on my c-section scar and I think it is really helping to reduce the redness and its also really nice to use for scar massage as I think the the perfect consistency."
- Kathryn
"Not yet however my skin looks healthy and feels softer."
- Lisa
Would you recommend My Expert Midwife Fantastic Skin Elastic?
Yes
I definitely would, best stretch mark oil I have tried. I love the pump design of this product. This constancy is just right and not too runny. This product improved my stretch marks.
- Amanda
Yes
Yes, the ease of use and the simple packaging makes this product worthwhile.
- Lisa
Yes
Yes I would recommend this product. It's natural and developed by midwives, so I really trusted the brand and felt that it was a nice treat to use during pregnancy and post partum. Its effective and as with the other products, can also be used elsewhere on the body to provide a nice level of moisture. It's slightly more expensive but I do think its worth it and the Expert Midwife range looks quite luxurious, making for excellent gifts for expectant or new parents.

Reviewer recommendations
iCandy Recommends
Our review panel was impressed by the premium look of this serum and whilst this is reflected in the price, its effectiveness was worth it for our testers. All testers reported softer, more elasticized skin after use and praised its easy to use pump application, whilst one of our testers was particularly fond of the serum for scar massage. The fact this range is developed by midwives was a reassuring selling point.
