Bio oil and coco butter

[adele88]

So does anyone actually use bio oil and coco butter to keep stretch marks away i have used it from the day i found out i was pregnant and havent got one so far although i am only 13 weeks pregnant.

Does it actually work ???

I use loads of baby oil and body butter and I thinks it helps to a degree but I've read that it's generally down to genetics if you are prone tot hem or not. Did your mum get any with you?
Keep up with the creams etc as they can't do any harm and you'll have super soft skin xx

i'm the same as you rakrak, baby oil and cocoa butter.. but i recently got stretch marks!!!!! dead sad lolll. so it may be down to genetics! xxx

I hate to disappoint you lot, but all my friends who "avoided" stretch marks , right up until week 38 (in one case) ended up with them in the end. It's down to genetics although creams and bio oil and things will help keep your skin supple, there isn't much you can do about avoiding stretch marks altogether, I'm afraid!

i have used bio oil and cocoa butter since 12 weeks and i haven't had a single stretch mark yet!
fingers crossed it stays that way
i use it all over my bump, boobs, hips and thighs after ive had a bath and my skin is still damp and the pores are open xx

I would say use them.. But they don't guarantee not getting any.. Blahh to stretchmarks lol I should upload pics of mine to give you all the push to put your oils and butters on every single day
