    I heard cocoa butter and bio oil( you can put the oil in the cocoa butter) and use it twice a day, I haven't done it, it sounds slimey

    Hey :) Stretch marks do fade eventually, and I don't think you should let them get you down at all - there's nothing wrong with them and most girls have some. But maybe you could try something like bio oil, that helped fade mine :smile:

    Your skin is a reflection of what you EAT and never let ANY ONE WHO tell you different! I can show you the way, but YOU makes the choice! K

    I hate to be a salesman here but the wraps, defining gel, & stretch mark cream work really, really well for stretch marks!!

    Try Mederma. It is a bit expensive but it does help fade them to white faster than they will on their own. I had/have the same problem. I started wearing boy short style swimsuits which are super cute and cover up the problem.

    Have you tried Mederma? It's an OTC cream - I've seen it work well on scars.

    My sister swears by the stretch mark creams they make for pregnant women--since they balloon so quickly. There are a number of options you can buy at most stores or online.

    Mederma, vitamin E oil, and all that help. But the quickest way that will help make them smaller, not SIGNIFICANTLY smaller but definitely less red is laser therapy. I had a buddy's dad who is a dermatologist do it on mine. You can still see them when I'm as pale as I am but when I'm tanner you can't even tell. (Hopefully :blushing: )

    If you can afford it or want to afford it... check for a doctors who will do it or if your insurance might cover it. You only need to go in 15 or 30 minute sessions because it hurts. But it'll probably be like 4 sessions.
