Streeeeeetch Marks

#1
Bug 

I have stretch marks.Dodgy I hate them.
(I feel like) they're ALL OVER ME!!Angry
I have them on my hips, thighs, breast (all over them), a few under my arms, a few on my legs, and my butt I think.... Sad I never want to show any of my skin where there are stretch marks, even if I'm confortable with my body.
Does anyone have any idea how to get rid of these?? Huh
I would really appreciate it.
I've tried cocoa butter, doesn't do much....

I HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM!

Right now I'm using Palmer's Skin Therapy, its like $9. It's been helping them blend in with my skin. I've been using it now for 6+ months its been working okay.

I also added Mother's Natural Blend which was $14. It has Almond oil, Coconut oil, Cocoa Butter, & Vitamin E. One of my friends said it helped out with her stretch marks so I thought I would give it a try.

I also exfoliate on a regular basis. Right now I'm using Tree Hut Shea Sugar body scrub - Almond & Honey. It's smells SOOO good! And it makes your skin baby smooth. Plus it's like $6-$7.

Also make sure your drinking a lot of water & milk (or calcium & Vitamin D supplements)! Helps just about everything!

If you find something better PLEASE let me know (^.^)

I've had stretch marks since puberty but I also gained a bunch from weight gain/loss.

A few things I've tried-

Dermarolling (also called microneedling and collagen induction therapy) wasn't a success, though I may have gotten better results with longer needles and anesthetic.

Creams/butters/oil massaging. No success.

TCA chemical which I bought for my face. I tried it on my marks... no change, but the TCA % is only 15%. Might be more successful with a higher percentage. I buy from MUAC. Cheap and great quality.

I kinda give up until the other day. I was searching reviews on makeupalley for DIY beauty ideas. I searched for best value and Vicks Vapor Rub came up. I thought other than having a stuffy nose what else could you use it for? The last thing I expected to read was that it's amazing for stretchmarks!

Rubbing the vapor rub on the marks and wrapping the area in bandage apparently helps to tighten the skin and help vanish stretchmarks! I've tried it for 2 days now.. It kinda feels nice. Not sure if it's working but I'm willing to give it shot after reading great reviews from a few different ares.

I thought I would share now rather than waiting a few months to see if it works.

Good Luck!

Thanks!! I'll try it out too! Think it'll work without bandaging though?

I'm sure it would. I use a triangle bandage thing just so it doesn't go on my clothes.

These look interesting Big Grin: May try one. Or a few.

Peanut Butter & Crisco: Combine 2 tablespoons of peanut butter and 1 tablespoon of crisco, rub mixture on stretch marks and leave for 15 minutes then wipe or wash off. Best for older marks & scars.

Lavender Essential Oil: Apply directly to stretch marks. Newer marks will heal faster.

Coffee Beans: Grind coffee beans into powder & combine with lotion of choice, rub into stretch marks for about 1 minuter, wipe off excess with warm moist towel. 2-3 times a day. Results should be seen in 2 weeks.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil: Apply extra virgin olive oil to stretch marks 2-3 time a day. Results should be seen in 1 week. *Works well combined with vitamin E oil*

Vitamin E Oil: Poke holes in Vitamin E gel caps with a clean needle, squeeze onto stretch marks.

Castor Oil: Rub Castor Oil onto stretch marks, wrap with plastic wrap, place warm compress on top of plastic wrap and leave for 20-30 minutes. Results should be seen in 1 week.

Hempseed Oil: Apply unrefined hempseed oil to stretch mark once or twice a day. Results should be seen in a couple of weeks.

Vitamin K: Apply Vitamin K cream to stretch marks, twice a day. Results should be seen in 2 weeks.

Flaxseed Oil: Rub Flax Seed Oil onto stretch marks a few times a day. Newer marks will heal faster.

Wow! I'll have to try some of these. I'm pretty much use to my stretch marks now. But I would love for them to at least fade & blend in with my skin a little more!

I also have the same problem & now I am using Regener8 Skin Care Supplement. It contains Aloe Vera with the addition of Vitamins: A, C & E and many other natural ingredients which help to improve the appearance of skin that may affected by stretch marks, scars, ageing or dehydration.

When I began my NBE regimen, I developed my own massage oil (didn't want to smell like fenugreek, and didn't need a lot of growth). I combined almond, olive, sesame, and coconut oils with cocoa butter and a bit of vitamin E to prevent rancidity. I had stretch marks on my breasts for decades, which now are much less noticeable after several months.
