I heard the only way to prevent stretch marks is to ensure you are born to a woman who doesnt have any -because its hereditary, and the creams, oils etc cant really do much if you are predisposed to have them???

^ But what about Hollywood mums? I always thought they do some fancy surgery or something to hide their stretch marks...

Sajalina,
I used ‘Burt’s Bees Cocoa & Macadamia Nut Body Butter’ when I was pregnant and my stretch marks are very very light, almost not there so I highly recommend it. It’s greasy though but I didn’t mind. You can buy at Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Burts-Bees-Macadamia-Butter-6-6-Ounce/dp/B002DPUY88/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=beauty&qid=1292361380&sr=8-1

Re: stretch marks during pregnancy

thanks for the advice girlies.

do you think any of these creams will be effective on old stretchmarks (yellow white faded out ones) not just on new purple ones?
