We all know how people say its next to impossible to get rid of stretch marks naturally, hmm.. this is not true. Although this may take time and patience before the result is visible but definitely achievable. Outlined below are natural ways in which stretch marks can be gotten rid of or at least made to fade.
Potatoes: These work wonders on stretch marks. The juices of the potatoes are full of vitamins and minerals that aid in restoring skin cells. Cut the potatoes into thick slices. Rub the pieces over the stretch marks allowing the juice settle on them. Leave on for a few minutes and wash the residue off with warm water.
Olive Oil: This is equally high in Vitamin E which is great for the skin. This helps in soften the skin and when the skin softens it expands which allows the marks fade easily and also safeguard against future stretch marks. Castor oil is another excellent choice.
Sugar: Yep! you heard right too much of this maybe bad for the internal health but it has got great benefit for the external. Add a cup of sugar, teaspoon of oiland a whole lemon juice into a bowl. Apply this on the stretch mark for 10-15 mins. The remaining can be stored into an airtight bowl and refrigerated for future use.
Aloe Vera: We know aloe vera has got great benefits for our overall well being. For daily use after your bath; make a mixture of aloe vera juice, vitamin E and vitamin A oil (preferably from the capsules), rub this on the area until your skin absorbs it. This can be used during and after pregnancy also!
Shea/ Cocoa Butter: This is also great when it comes to treating stretch marks naturally. This super hydrating skin booster ensures your skin retains its smoothness and prevents future stretch marks from forming if used daily.
Things to note:
Patience is key when it comes to treating stretch marks.
Love your body while at it.
And lastly, Be Diligent.
