There's not much you can do about stretch marks you've already got. I have a ton on my butt and thighs from puberty. It's been 20 years since then and they've faded some, but they're definitely still there.
Since then, in the past 10 years or so, I've been moisturizing with Nivea Skin Firming lotion when I get out of the shower and that has kept me from getting other stretch marks. The key is to keeping your skin moisturized, so that if it stretches it doesn't leave marks.
As for the cellulite, maybe just do some strength training exercises to target the areas where you have it. It will make the muscles tauter and pull the fat in some by tightening that area. There's no sure-fix cure for cellulite, so if you still have it after doing exercises, then just accept it. It's part of being a woman. Love yourself!

Stretch marks are scars. Try vitamin E and/or some type of scar cream like Mederma. They both work good. For the cellulite... this is from deposits of fat cells bunched up in groups. Creams don't work. Try a loofah when bathing and massage the areas regularly. Exercise will help.. as you burn off the fat and tone the muscle and skin the cellulite will disappear.

For the stretch marks and cellulite you've got to up your cardio. Every morning before you dress and at night when you disrobe, rub on Palmer's Cocoa Butter for Stretch Marks. It keeps or makes your skin more elastic which helps.

nothing will totally eliminate stretch marks. palmer's cocoa butter will help a lot if you use it religiously and tanning hides a multitude of sins! as for the cellulite, weight loss. i lost a huge amount of weight after being pregnant and all my cellulite is gone!

there is nothing that will eliminate these things, ne product that says it will is full of poo poo. sorry babe you r stuck, but dont feel bad, even the stars have strech marks and cellulite, nothing to be ashamed of, they have the luxury of airbrushing thats all.
if you have been impregnated n bore children then the strech marks are either from growing, or if youve been a yo yo dieter, gaining n losing weight often will cause as well.

Try some skin firming lotion for the cellulite. For your stretchmarks, try tanning. After a couple visits the heat will lighten the marks, and eventually go away. I tried this myself :)

I'm not a girl but I hear that Cocoa Butter type lotion helps prevent stretch marks. I've read entertainment type magazines saying this is what Hollywood Celebs use during pregnancy
