What lotion is everyone using ? I'm using Alba cocoa butter body lotion and, while I don't expect it to keep away any stretch marks that may still come, it keeps my belly from itching, and I love how soft my skin is.
I know I will end up with new stretch marks since I got them when I went through a growth spurt as a child...but I am using Burt's Bee's Mama Bee Belly Butter. I love the way it makes my skin feel!
I was wondering this too. I bought some raw shea butter and was going to whip it up in my kitchenaid to make a creamier concoction...anyone have good experience w/ the shea butter products?
I was using the palmers cream but got a very itchy rash all over my belly! it took me about a week to realize that's what it was from and the second i stopped using it my belly was rash free! so now i've just been using random lotions i already have...but i wanna find one that says it helps prevent stretch marks, but i'm kinda scared to try any more palmers! my belly is itchy enough!
i've been using a combination of essential oils from a friend's yoga studio. i just got done with the grapefruit rosemary bottle, & i'm about to use the lavender.
A friend of mine just gave me a bottle of Re-Fine Stretch Mark Smoother lotion from Avon. I haven't used it yet but she said it worked great and she has very few stretch marks. It smells nice too.
