hi, try bio-oil, its good stuff. simply apply it after a bath or shower (or even just once, twice a day) to the marks and you will see a difference within a week.

Hello!

I have great skin and even though I have stretch marks they are barely noticable because they blend so well with my skin.
Ever since I got preggo I began lathering up after showers without drying off, I air dry so the water and oil/ lotion is absorbed better.

It's been about 6 years since I have been doing this sometimes switching between Body oil and lotion (Neutrogena and Avon have nice body oils/Any cocoa butter lotion is good), but basically every time I take a bath or shower this has been my routine and I feel it has been a progression for better as time went on throughout the years.....

Whatever you do, do it for the long run don't expect quick results.

Kinda like dieting...look to create a life long routine not a quick fix, then you will really see results!

There is a (I think) loreal stretch mark cream, doesnt take it away but it makes quite a difference!

I use a gradual self tanner (tanner + moisturizer) it seems to minimize the appearance
