cocoa butter or bio-oil? trying to reduce my chances of getting stretch marks early.

bio oil has vitamin e in it which helps reduce scars aka stretch marks but cocoa butter helps keep the elasticity in your skin. Either will work great! But bio oil is very oily and not very comfortable so I'd go with the butter!

@arielmarietalks, thanks! :) I'm almost out of the butter so I'm looking at other creams. I hear coconut oil is really good too

It is! Smells weird but it's good for your skin. haha

you can only reduce the appearance of stretch marks. it has to do with genetics and your skins elasticity. you can't prevent getting them.

@arielmarietalks, haha very true.

@_akgirl, that's what I meant lol

gotcha. lol. i used cocoa butter massage cream for stretch marks.

You could use ItWorks stretch mark cream. I bought some from a friend and started using it at 25 weeks, 2x a day. I'll be 36 weeks tomorrow and so far, the only stretch marks I have are the ones on my boobs that I started getting in the first trimester. Lol.

ahhh. how much was the cream? @taylorraye

Im not sure how much it normally is, but if you sign up as a loyal customer I think it's like $30 or something. I got a screaming discount from her so I'm not sure of the actual price!

@taylorraye, 30 isn't too bad. I'll look into it
