Upon application, it quickly dissolves and absorbs into skin as seen below.

Skin
Skin feels moisturized and loved. It is waxy, but not sticky at all when I have my clothes on immediately after application.
Until now, there is no indication of stretch marks nor dry and itchy skin.
Apparently genes play a big part of it, but so far I have not experienced any dry or itchy skin either, so it's all good!
Smell
It has a subtle smell of coconut. I can't smell it after applying the wax, just on my fingers that I used to apply.
Usage
I use about R2 coin for each application, and sometimes use a bit more just to make sure I cover every inch of my growing belly.
Value for Money
It comes in a 125g tub with the price of ZAR90.
I find the price reasonable as the tub is fully filled and cream is very compact!
What's amazing is that customers can bring empty Oh-lief containers to their blending houst at Salt Circle, Woodstock to have them refilled at a R10 discount. Talk about love for nature :)
Overall
I love that all their products are made from 100% natural and certified organic ingredients.
For me, I believe that products produced out of passion and love never fails as they always promise good quality.
I do need quite a large amount of wax to cover my whole tummy, and sometimes leave an oily wax on my clothes if I do not leave it long enough to dry
However, I still recommend you pregnant mummies to try this tummy wax that is free from all nasties, especially if you are using Bio-Oil currently.
This is my first Oh-lief product, but I am keen to try other products from them.
Thanks for your review, I would love to try this. I am currently 6 weeks pregnant and is using Bio-Oil.
