The real reason why some moms get loose skin and stretch marks, while others don’t — and no, it’s not just genetics!
As your bump grows and your skin stretches during pregnancy, there's one thing that will determine whether or not you end up with stretch marks and loose skin after giving birth…
As your bump grows and your skin stretches during pregnancy, there's one thing that will determine whether or not you end up with stretch marks and loose skin after giving birth…
Elastin fibers.
Elastin fibers.
Elastin fibers are the tiny rubber bands that hold your skin together.
They are what allows your skin to stretch and return back to its original shape.
Try this: Pinch the skin on the back of your hand and let go. See how it snaps back almost immediately? That’s the elastin fibers at work.
But just like a rubber band, when these elastin fibers get stretched out too much... they can snap and cause stretch marks, or lose their elasticity and result in loose skin.
What about genetics?
Yes, genetics do play a huge role in how far the elastin fibers in your skin can stretch before they snap, and how well they retain their elasticity.
But here’s the good news: even if stretch marks and loose skin run in your family, there are still things you can do to avoid them!
New research has found that there are clinically proven active ingredients that can help strengthen these elastin fibers or “rubber bands” in your skin, so they can stretch further without snapping and maintain their elasticity throughout pregnancy.
And when these ingredients are applied onto the skin consistently, they can help minimize the risk of getting stretch marks or loose skin, regardless of your genetics!

Science-Backed Solution: Centella Asiatica + Low Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid
Centella asiatica has been shown in studies to:
Increase elasticity of elastin fibers by up to 40.58%, so they can stretch farther without snapping.
Stimulate your skin to produce new elastin fibers, so that even as the old elastin fibers in your skin start to weaken, new elastin fibers take their place to hold your skin together and maintain its elasticity.
However, just using centella asiatica alone isn’t enough.
That’s because these elastin fibers or “rubber bands” are located deep in the dermis layer of the skin, and centella asiatica alone cannot penetrate deep enough into the skin to reach them.
That’s where low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (LMW-HA) comes in.
LMW-HA works as a delivery system.
When applied onto the skin, it opens up a pathway for the centella asiatica to sink deep into the dermis layer of the skin and reach the elastin fibers.
Poor penetration of centella asiatica
With LMW-HA, centella asiatica penetrates deep enough to reach the elastin fibers
Using these two ingredients in combination is the secret to strengthening the elastin fibers or “rubber bands” in your skin, and minimizing the risk of getting stretch marks and loose skin.

FAQ
When should I start?
Ideally, as soon as your bump begins to show — that’s when your skin is starting to stretch. That said, it’s never too late to support your skin!
Can I use it postpartum?
Yes. Many moms continue using True Belly Serum after birth to help their skin recover and firm up more quickly.
What if I already have loose skin?
If you’re 12 months postpartum or less, the serum could still make a difference. However, if you've had loose skin for several years already, topical care may not be as helpful.
Is it pregnancy-safe?
Yes. Every ingredient in True Belly Serum has been vetted to be pregnancy-safe. However, if in doubt, we always recommend checking with your OBGYN to get their approval first!
What if it doesn’t work for me?
Every bottle of True Belly Serum comes with our unconditional 3-Month Risk Free Guarantee. If you’re not thrilled with your order for any reason at all, email us at contact@8sheep.com and we will get you a full refund — no questions asked.
