Stretch mark creams.

Okay ladies, I'm having my first. Still very early, but what's a good cream/lotion for stretch marks. I don't wanna spend a ton of money on something that won't work!

coconut oil definately wont make your skin more sensitive, its used worldwide as a medicine because of its healing and protecting properties, its organic and comes from raw coconut so has no chemical, no additives and no preservatives that most creams off the shelves have :) @deekie

Actually read somewhere the other day it was either coconut butter or oil that's not good because it makes your skin more sensative

They are genetic so most likely if your mom had them so will you. Believe me I've tried everything but doesn't stop them. I've been using Vaseline cocoa butter and noticed it helps make them less noticeable

Sometimes they just aren't preventable. But I used bio oil n cocoa butter also. Didn't get a single one but then again I was all belly with a small bump too.

Nothing can prevent them but in time they will fade. I had my daughter  11 months ago and they're barely noticeable.

I've used both Johnson oil stretch mark and bio oil. Also bought coco butter stretch mark lotion I mix the oils with cream. I cream in morning and oil and cream in the evening has worked a treat :) has even reduced stretch marks I've had previously. Hope this helps x
