stretch marks whats the best cream?

Question

when pregnant what is the best cream to get rid of them ?

Answer 1

Palmer's has a few different kinds of lotion for stretch marks.. my favorite is called tummy butter. It comes in a little tub and it's very heavy so it stays on all night or all day, but it doesn't leave any marks on your clothes. The regular lotion or cocoa butter they have work great too (the cocoa butter smells awesome) I keep a mini tube of the regular lotion in my purse in case my stomach gets itchy during the day. Palmer's is also great because you can get it anywhere.

To be honest, no lotion will actually get rid of the stretch marks but a product called re-new stretch mark cream from Avon is supposed to help soften them quite a bit.

Good luck..and I feel your pain! I'm trying everything!

Answer 2

Someone told me olive oil and I didn't listen I used Cocoa Butter and some other stretch mark creams and my battle marks are very obvious. The 2 ladies that I know that used olive oil everyday have NO STRETCH MARKS!! Now my sister is expecting an she is going to try the olive oil. Hope this helps!

Answer 3

The best cream that I have seen work is something called, "Mothers Friend." My mom had seven of us kids and she has no stretch marks, she swares by that product. I hope that product is still on the market she says that it is in a small blue bottle shaped like a body figure. Good Luck

Answer 4

Forget the cream try Bio oil you can get from your chemist its the best thing for them it do work more than the cream but as getting rid of completly i dont think so but give this a try you must use it all the time keep on with it.

Answer 5

Honestly, i was told that using coca butter lotion is suppost to help get rid of stretch marks that you already have and help prevent you from getting them while pregnant.... BUT.... the only thing i have noticed is that coca butter just turns them white, they dont get rid of them. they also dont prevent you from getting them. so many people told me that it did, but my doc said no there is no for sure way to get rid of them or not get them. but as long as you dont gain to much weight to fast you might not get to many. i know i didnt start getting stretch marks until about 3 weeks ago, and im 34 weeks right now. good luck though, they can really be a bummer sometimes. let me know if you hear of anything that works too. im interested in this topic.

Answer 6

hi im 35 weeks pregnant and im using bio oil it prevents and fades stretch marks,also plamers olive oil works and so does umu oil and landolin cream...palmers coco butter does not stop stretch marks it makes them worse...also if your that worried then theres another alternative but its expensive and that is strivectin that is suppose 2 completely repair the skin tissue and get rid of them forever,although i havent tryed that yet...hope that helps you out...

Answer 7

there isnt anything topically you can put on to get rid of stretch marks.
Stretch marks start/form at the middle layer of skin--it is too deep for anything to get to.
cremes you put on only touch the surface of your skin.

surgery would be your best bet after baby--and even that isnt a sure thing.

Answer 8

Nothing helps stretch marks

Answer 9

Pure shea butter is the one that I have heard works the best. I haven't used it long enough to know if it will help me get rid of mine. It doesn't smell that great, but it is great for dry skin. I prefer to use it at night before going to bed. Hope this helps!

Answer 10

I use Palmers Massage Lotion for Stretch Marks... it works for me. But if your going to get'em you will lotion or not. But I think it helps keep them to a min. good luck!
