Maternitique Hosts Summer Stretch Event in Time for Bathing Suit Season: Stretch Mark Prevention Product Exclusive Sale
Portland, OR (June 1, 2009) – Maternitique has an exclusive offer for pregnant and new moms seeking a safe, natural and effective solution for unsightly stretch marks this summer. From June 5 through June 30, Maternitique is hosting the “Summer Stretch Event” with 10% off the popular new Stretch Mark Cream by Beauté de Maman.
Celebrity fans of the natural Stretch Mark Cream and line of Beauté de Maman products include actresses Penelope Ann Miller (pictured left*), Salli Richardson-Whitfield (“Eureka”), Chyler Leigh (“Grey’s Anatomy”) and Jennifer Blanc. Jane Hajduk, who is married to actor Tim Allen, and The Insider’s celebrity correspondent Victoria Recano, are also among new Hollywood moms who have remarked the Beauté de Maman collection. So is Brooke Mueller Sheen (pictured below, right*), who shopped for skin care products throughout her pregnancy at Maternitique.
Maternitique, the only retail destination that offers upscale natural and organic maternity products, was the first online store to add the Beauté de Maman line. Says CEO and founder Tara Bloom, “We make our product selections based on three criteria: maternal, baby and environmental safety; style; and performance. Brands have to excel in all three areas in order for them to meet our ‘evolved’ maternity standards. After speaking with Beauté de Maman founder Dr. Michele Brown and trying the products ourselves, we were impressed and knew our customers would be, too.”
Beauté de Maman Stretch Mark Cream contains only natural and herbal active ingredients that are safe for both mom and fetus. The unique formula is specially designed to increase collagen and elastin—skin proteins that can break during the body’s rapid expansion in pregnancy, resulting in stretch marks. While some better-known brands of stretch mark creams add collagen to the body, Beauté de Maman Stretch Mark Cream works with a woman’s body to help her skin make its own collagen.
Another significant advantage of the Beauté de Maman Stretch Mark Cream is the absorbent formula that allows women to skip worrying about staining or ruining fabrics.
“The fast-absorbing quality makes it unique among stretch mark prevention choices,” says Bloom. “The light, fluffy texture is a like a body whip, which makes it a perfect, refreshing skin care choice for summer. We’re confident that women who try Stretch Mark Cream during our exclusive 10% off promotion will love it—and with our risk-free guarantee, if they don’t, we’ll refund their money.”
Beauté de Maman Stretch Mark Cream is scent-free, and contains NO PARABENS, NO RETINOL and NO SODIUM LAUREL SULFATES.
Beauté de Maman Stretch Mark Cream regularly retails for $25.00. Through June 30, 2009 at Maternitique only, it’s available for $22.50.
Beauté de Maman products, categorized as cosmeceuticals because of the medicinal properties in their ingredients, are the only line of pregnancy skin care products developed by an obstetrician. Created by Dr. Michele Brown, a board-certified, Yale-trained obstetrician with more than 25 years of experience delivering more than 3000 babies, all Beauté de Maman products are available at Maternitique.
