Red face OMG, please get rid of them..........

Oh my god, pls. help. me. I do tan, and have noticed within the last say 6 months, that my chest has what looks like streatch marks??? I hate it, I do sleep on my sides allot, maybe it is because I am pushing my small boobies together, but seriously, is there anything I can do to make it less noticable? I notice it, However, I never tan my face or neck, I use self tanners on them........

Oh gosh, pls. help. Coco Butter is not doing anygood. I just wanna ball.....

Re: OMG, please get rid of them..........

Did you just start tanning? I know when I was tanning I started seeing tiny little stretch marks on myself from losing a little weight that I never saw when I wasn't tan! It happened to me b/c the skin in the stretch mark didn't get as dark as the rest.. so do you think this can maybe be the same for you?

Re: OMG, please get rid of them..........

I don't know if you are willing to give up tanning.. I did it but I definitely miss giong and I've been using self tanner. It will help them not show up as much. This may have been why they are visible now, and now since you know they are there, you'll notice them more yourself. Has your chest gotten any bigger perhaps? This can make the stretch marks too. I would maybe try some cocoa butter since so many people have been saying that it helps fade them. I haven't tried it though.. but I know it smells yummy! You can always tan LESS and if you are a little lighter, the stretch marks may not show up as much.

Are they the white kind of stretch marks or are they kind of pinkish and more dark? If they aren't white, they will fade to whiter eventually.. but that's when tanning can make them show up more.

Oh yeah and I'm not sure about the sleeping on the side part.. I sleep on my side or stomach.. not sure if it affects them but maybe so!
