STRETCH MARKS ... I'm so happy!!!!


Girls I am so very excited! I know there is no perfect “cure” for these annoying marks but Ive had them for 11 years practically and I am so self conscious about them. Anyway, on Sunday I went to CVS to get cocoa butter just to give it a shot. I ended up buying for a little over 5 dollars …

Palmers’s Cocoa Butter Formula
Massage Cream for Stretch Marcks
With Vitamin E Collagen and Elastin
Concentrated Formula
Helps Prevent and Reduce Stretch Marks


Well I have been using it since then (1-2) times a day. I woke up this morning and checked out my hips (where I have the worst ones) and I seriously have noticed a huge difference. They are much lighter and less noticeable. To the point where I think others may not even notice them. I have ugly white and red ones and BOTH have gotten lighter and its only been 4 days. I had to share this news because I am seriously freaking out right now – I am so happy because I never thought these stubborn things could get any better. They have – IM SO HAPPY!!!!

FM me with any questions. If you try it let me know if it works because if so I will start telling everyone and there mother lol

Re: STRETCH MARKS ... I'm so happy!!!!

Wow! Someone asked this awhile ago, and I had repllied that cocoa butter was supposed to work. Honestly, I bought it, and never used it, but now I'm going to find it! I should try my own advice! lol That's great! I'm so happy for you! Hey... are you going Saturday, ZuZusPetals?

Now that I am prego, I have been using that cream 3 times a day and I am praying that I wont get ANY stretchmarks..since I dont have any now



My future mother in law said that she used cocoa butter everyday when she was prego .. and she didnt get any stretch marks on her stomach. However, she never put any under her breasts and thats where she got them. So I guess its safe to cover all areas lol

That was me!! I am going out and buying some TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have seen it in the store and just passed it by. Thank you so much for this post. My stretch marks are mostly white, but they drive me crazy since they are on my stomach and hips and I am so self conscious about them. I was thinking of having cool beam laser surgery but there is no gurantee with that ... would much rather spend $5 at Duane Reade.

Re: STRETCH MARKS ... I'm so happy!!!!

Thanks for posting! I had heard cocoa butter works before and have bought it and then never used it consistently but I think I'll start!

I know someone who said she used cocoa butter on her stomach when she was preggo and even though she gained like 60lbs she didnt have any stretch marks!

Re: STRETCH MARKS ... I'm so happy!!!!

I lost a lot of weight about 5 years ago, and I started to get stretch marks. I used cocoa butter everyday and still do, and you can't tell I have ever had stretch marks.
