Blend 3 (Formally Known As "Anti Stretch Mark")

  • Sale
  • Regular price £4.50


Stretch marks - also known as Striae -

are caused when the two main proteins - Collagen and Elastin - that help form a strong skin structure in the lower layer of the skin (Epidermis) tear.

The tearing can be due to a number of factors, but its usually due to the skin stretching or shrinking quickly - occurrences like growth spurts, rapid weight gain or loss, pregnancy can cause them for example.

As the tear starts to heal it forms a type of scar that makes lines or streaks appear on the surface of the skin.  The lines can be red, pink, purple, or dark brown depending on your skin colour, and will eventually become silvery in colour when healing is complete.

How to choose the correct blend for specific massage requirements -

When selecting a blend to apply to the body, face or scalp the correct blend dilutions are key.

Mantra Aromatherapy has created several sections on our website where the headache of blending Essential Oils to the correct dilution with the appropriate massage medium has been, for your convenience, already done.

So whether you require a blend for body massage, a scalp massage blend for oiled Indian Head massage treatments or a Reflexology foot powder you can be reassured that everything is ready to go - all you do is open, pour and apply!

The products in this section are body massage blends that are specifically designed for use on the body only - this means they can be used for massage (after an initial patch test) on the limbs & torso.

The blends in this section are NOT suitable for use on the face or intimate areas of the body as the dilution of the blends are too strong and may cause irritation particularly with sensitive, allergic and delicate skin types and areas of the body with thin, fine and delicate skin.

If you require blends for facial massage, please check out the products in our Facial blends and products Section, our Absolute Blends Section and our Indian Head Massage and Lomi Lomi Massage Products Sections,

If you require more concentrated blends for small, localized areas, please check out our Targeted blends Section.
