DON'T USE COCOA POWDER...GET PALMERS COCOA BUTTER LOTION AND JUST APPLY THAT DIRECTLY TO THE AREA WITH STRETCH MARKS. ALSO, VITAMIN E OIL WORKS WELL TOO. I WOULD USE THEM BOTH TOGETHER AND YOU SHOULD SEE GREAT RESULTS!

One way to help the problem is to quickly lose the baby weight and keep slim. That keeps them from staying stretched out and they will be less obvious.
The cocoa butter oil is recommended but since I didn't have much of a problem I used it very little.
I think women get them because they think they can gain all the weight they want during pregnancy. WRONG. 18 to 20 lbs is all you need for one baby.
I always gained 15 lbs and had no obvious stretch marks.
Happy Holidays.

I used coco butter but I did it while I was pregnant not after. And it worked great I never got stretch marks and I gained 50 lbs. Some people say that if you use it all the time it will make them go away but I am not sure.

A better thing to use is Shea butter Not fake shea butter find a african shop and ask them if they have real shea butter straight from the shea nut shea butter is not only for stretch marks its can also be used to grease a scalp
