QUESTION
Hi,
Please help.
I need to find out if there is at least a possible chance of finding something to get rid of or even clearing up the stretch marks on my stomach.
It really depresses me as I've always been able to wear hipster jeans or summer tops, now I can't.
While I was pregnant I used Vitamin E oil, but still got stretch marks.
I'll try anything.
Thanks
ANSWER
Hi Phoebe
Vitamin E oil is great for the skin and keeps it looking young and healthy. But if you feel it doesn't help you, try products that are aimed at reducing the appearance of stretch marks. Innoxa, Elancyl & Roc have got fabulous lotions and creams and are available at pharmacy and leading beauty shops.
