Stretch Mark Crème
There are dozens on the market and all offer their own solutions in managing those silver lines.
Frankly, some work better than others. What is often forgotten is that it is the actual massage that works as well as the crème. So get rubbing!
Alternatively enlist the support of a willing friend or lover - I call mine "Dr Nick" and he is willing to assist!
Stretch Mark Crème #1 - Palmers Body Butter
Traditionally mothers have used Palmers Body Butter, and now the company have released their own stretch mark crème intended for massage. Overall, we have heard that it really works.Stretch Mark Crème #2 - Barmon
For a quarter of a century Barmon has been receiving letters from women for reducing their stretch marks. They also offer a refund which I think is cool.Stretch Mark Crème #3 - Mothercare
I have also heard that the stretch mark crème available at Mothercare is the business and is also very affordable.Stretch Mark Crème #4 - Vitamin A
Vitamin A seems to be the big boy when it comes to whipping those stretch marks into shape. You can get your hands on it by looking for products that contain Tretinoin or Retinol. They can help to increase the collagen production which can reheal your skin.Stretch Mark Crème #5 - Vitamin E
Vitamin E could be your stretch mark savior. Get some capsules and pop them with a pin and apply to the area as needed. You can use it alone, or mix it with another crème if you prefer. Also, you can add a cloth and tape it onto the area for a few hours if you have the patience. Make sure you get the active form of Vitamin E and not the acete version - ask your pharmacist. I have been given good feedback on natural mixed tocopherols, also available at most pharmacies and within lots of products.Stretch Mark Crème #6 - ElastSkin Oil
Hunt down some ElastSkin Oil which helps to prepare your skin for stretching during pregnancy. Can also be used by you diet "yo yo'ers" out there (you know who you are!) and body builders.
Let us all know which stretch mark cremes have and haven't worked for you. Get good karma and comment today!
