So the sales rep at this maternity store told me to use a sugar scrub, thick moisturizer like a body butter etc, and oil once a weeek to help prevent stretch marks. Once they appear it’s too late. Also, she said if you feel itching that’s stretch marks forming under the skin. Hope this helps someone 😘
what helps with stretch marks? avoiding stretch marks? lighten stretch marks?
when do you get stretch marks?
What can help to prevent stretch marks?!.
Holy stretch marks! Been using coco butter and eczema lotion and its helping. I will gladly accept my "tiger strips". Once Emilia gets here i plan to start working out again. Any suggestions on helping stretch marks??
So now that I'm working out I'm out of my first thing of coco butter for my stretch marks and c section scar! Can anyone recommend the best and cheapest lotion to help with stretch marks and once again I stress cheap I'm on a super budget😊 thanks in advance!

🤔.... Not entirely true.
Use lotion every time you start feeling ichy, by scratching you are breaking down the skin making it easier for stretch marks to form. I’ve read that stretch marks are hereditary, not sure I believe that one either... My mom had horrible stretch marks with me and so far I’ve had very few this time around.
I use lotion ever time I start feeling ichy. I rub my belly instead of scratching it. I also use lotion every time after a shower or bath, or swimming. Chlorine and salt pools dry out your skin. Don’t just use lotion on your belly as you can get stretch marks on your breast’s, back, hips and legs. I use an all natural bamboo lotion and the baby lavender night time lotion.
No... It’s not to late to reduce the appearance of stretch marks. Your skin is always creating new layers and the old one is sluffing off. It’s just like any other scar, it fades with time and certain lotions help your skin heal faster.
