Sheabutter Cottage Akuaba Belly Butter 70g review

Rating: 6/5, available from Sheabutter Cottage for £8.85 (+p&p).

Oh yes; your eyes do not deceive you we have given this 6 out of 5. A TBT first.

One of my closest friends, Angela, has decided that it's time to get fit, and at 19 stone she has a lot of work to do and a lot of emotional issues to overcome. So far she has lost 2 stone and we are immensely proud of her.

But Angela has hit a roadblock; she had no way to get rid of her stretch marks and, sometimes, the sight of them alone can really affect her mindset. So, we got researching; a couple of people swore by cacao butter, some shea butter, and others relied solely on olive oil. But Angela had tried all off these nourishing ingredients with no effect. Only when Em went for lunch with her recently pregnant sister, J, did we find out about this product. J had no stretch marks from her pregnancy and swears by this body butter. Before now we'd never bought anything but shampoo from the Cioccolatina range at Sheabutter cottage.

With haste we purchased a tub of this miracle body butter. After the first day of use, Angela's stretch marks had visibly reduced. We're talking centimetres of reduction here. The most reduction was seen in the first week, but she has been using it regularly and it has made such a difference to her stomach, legs and arms.

It's great for nourishing the skin and hair. There's nothing more to say really. We love it!
