Jean Wu Technique for Stretch Marks – Over 5 Months

June 9th, 2009

This Jean Wu Method does not work. For any of you out there considering this do not bother to waste your time with it. I have followed it to the letter for almost 6 months and NO results. In fact this may do more damage than good, constantly letting your skin receive a harsh scraping is probably not the best idea over such a long extended period of time.

It is pure and simple INTERNET MARKETING and will not solve any of your problems.

Stretch Marks Cure Exfoliation 4 Months Later

May 1st, 2009

If you are looking for how to get rid of stretch marks and are thinking that the answer could very well be in Jean Wu's over complicated exfoliation method then think again.

I have now been doing this method for 4 months and there is No difference in the stretch marks. The skin looks different and smoother and rosier after the harsh skin scrubbing, but a few days later when it has recovered it goes straight back to how it was. Some of my stretch marks are tiny and even they have not budged at all.

Two months to go, but really I can see I am wasting my time. I know I sound negative, it's just that I would just give this ridiculous procedure up if it wasn't for this blog and for helping out the greater good. I don't think we are going to find the stretch mark removal cure in the Jean Wu method!

Make Up That Covers Stretch Marks

April 16th, 2009

I am on a quest to rid myself of my stretch marks, however this appears to be a longer journey than I first anticipated so on the way I have decided to try some cover up methods.

I have been using Dermablend Coverage Cosmetics for many years. I have the body make up and the Dermablend High Coverage Cream which is essentially for the face but I find it works even better on the body in places like your hips and breasts. It is great for covering any type of discoloration, hyper pigmentation, freckles, scars and stretch marks. It will not alter the texture of the skin much, but it does make skin imperfections appear much less noticeable.

In all honesty this make up is not that great out in the light of day, it is quite noticeable that you have it caked on and if you go swimming even though they tell you it is water proof - it really isn't. You will come out of that ocean swim or jump out of the pool only to find that you are covered no more! Not only that, but your swimmers may have foundation smudges all over them, take it from me I know this from personal experience.

At night time it is a whole different ball game.  With the right lighting of restaurants and bars and even your friends house you can totally get away with this make up. It is even awesome for giving you a very flawless looking cleavage. Put on a push up bra and some of this make up, don't forget the setting powder and make sure you don't wear white!

I want to hear from you, have you used Dermablend to cover stretch marks? Have you used any other type of make-up or product that produced a desirable effect?

Dermablend Suppliers

I have bought my Dermablend cover from a store and also online. For dermablend, I found the best deals to be found at Drugstore.com, however I did get it from Amazon once when I needed it in a hurry (same day shipping). I also found it on Ebay for a great deal, but you can't always find exactly what you want.

Jean Wu Stretchmark Cure – Over 3 Months

April 6th, 2009

I have been following the Jean Wu stretch mark cure technique for well over 3 months and it's not looking good for Jean Wu. My skin looks exactly the same as when I started off 3 months ago. Stretch mark cure I think not, scam and just a clever marketer trying to sell an ebook and being quite successful at it; I think so.

See the Jean Wu technique is this: create an overly complex, tedious routine that no one can question you on when it doesn't work because it is so hard to follow exactly to the letter and thus there you have the disclaimer. Oh did you accidentally brush your skin with the wooden peg anti-clockwise for one round? oh well it's not the technique that doesn't work - it's you!

Well it's definitely not me, this exfoliation technique is garbage. This has as much effect on your stretch marks as climbing up a tree and singing Ring Around The Rosie. I was going to save this barrage til month 6 but I can really see that this is going nowhere fast. There is no improvement and I cannot lie. I will continue this method just to say I have seen it all the way through and I didn't just give up. But this is pure BS!

Jean Wu – Stretch Mark Removal – 2 Months On

February 27th, 2009

Probably the only thing stopping me from give this whole method the can is the fact that I have started this blog and I said I would give the Jean Wu Stretch Mark Cure a decent 6 month  trial period. The reason I am doing this is that like so many of you who are reading this I have various stretch marks in all different parts of my body and I would love to get rid of them. I am also sick of shysters who make money out of  people's misery and hope for a solution.  When I heard about this method over the Internet after extensive online searching I was never able to find anyone who had posted ongoing results with this exfoliation method and there was never any conclusive evidence that this did or did not work (I am referring to real blogs here not Jean Wu's own testimonials as that is pure and simple marketing material).

Two Months of Stretch Marks Exfoliation Later

So here I am standing almost at the 2 month mark. True to the method I am now exfoliating every 5 days. I will say this about this exfoliation method; it certainly has made my skin feel smoother and softer. But the stretch marks? Well they are still there 100% not one has disappeared not even a little bit and given the right lighting they all glimmer in silvery white lines just like they always have. This is disappointing to me, when I first set out on this journey I had hope but it is somewhat fading as I am starting to realise that the best that can be achieved with this is a smoother skin texture (which is good) and that might be all. My stretch marks are much lighter than my skin tone so they are very obvious and unfortunately that has not changed hardly at all.

So wow, this post is a huge downer! But I will keep going because maybe the case is that as Jean Wu said in her infamous e-book , all I have achieved is to uncover a few layers of skin where the stretch mark is actually worse! well only time will tell...
