Can Purbasari Lulur Mandi Mutiara helps to lighten/remove stretch marks?

Came across this Indonesian or Javanese product called Purbasari Lulur Mandi Mutiara from my friend's facebook profile. She uploaded a photo of this product and the caption was "Useful little things!" and what surprises me was this picture of hers actually invites many comments from her friends.

So curious me (as usual), read through every single comment and realised that this product actually helps to remove or lighten the stretch marks during my friend's pregnancy. The word "stretch marks" really pissed me off as the stretch mark cream I used during my 1st pregnancy did not do wonders.

Hmmm, maybe it's partly due to my laziness as I did not apply it daily but I still apply it most of the days during my 1st pregnancy but still the marks are so obvious and UGLY!!! Arghhhh...

My friend did mention in her facebook that this product can be bought in one of the shops in Joo Chiat. But this place is seriously not accessible to me. So I did search on Google and amazingly, a LARGE number of posts of this product was created on Flowerpod forum (the famous ladies forum)! I only found one thread but the number of posts to this thread was really huge -its like 47 pages!!!. This really shows how useful (like what my friend on Facebook said) this product can be. After going through every single post, I realised it's super cheap when you buy from Batam. I also found out that there's one shop in AMK that sells this product!!! Yeah!!! It's nearer than Joo chiat, Tanjong Katong lor...

I even did a further search and saw some bloggers actually wrote review of this product. If you are interested, you may want to read their reviews. From meandmythrills, Yeng Siang and Cindy Adventures, on ChannelNewsAsia.

Last week, on Hubby's off day, we went down to AMK and I manage to purchase two tubs to Mandi Lulur!!! Hopefully, it will do wonders to my stretch marks (the left overs from 1st pregnancy) and the upcoming ones! :)

It's only $3 per tub!!!
