I am five months pregnant and am beginning to develop small stretch marks. I've been looking for good products to use that aren't as expencive as the Mama Mio products I had used before. Please, some help here!!? :(
Try Tamanu oil it's kind of pricey but if you order it online it's a better value than in the health food stores. I got mine from mountainroseherbs(dot)com its supposed to help skin heal, get rid of scars & stretch marks, and help with eczema. I mix mine with my body lotion & face cream and it has helped fade a lot of scars
Cocoa Butter, it can be purchased at Target or Walmart, not pricey at all. You have to start using it right away & be consistent in using it, otherwise it won't work.
Pure African Shea Butter works wonders. Other products are to busy being loaded with other things to give any effectiveness. Look for your local natural or beauty store

Tissue oil is great! If it gets very bad you can also try a topical treatment like Differin.
