I truly believe it was both, sorry to respectfully disagree. The cream kept my skin very silky as opposed to dry. As I previously mentioned, I was not very heavy to begin with and only gained 25 and 20 lbs. respectfully with the two pregnancies but I digress, lol.
It would be interesting to see the results of a study like that if they conducted one. A lot of women could benefit from the findings IMO.
